Rishi Sunak seems to be enjoying being "lame duck" leader of the opposition far more than he ever enjoyed being PM.

@arynrowland862 Ай бұрын

He’s laughing knowing that it ain’t his problem anymore. All these “leaders” want is power, yet they seem so relieved when they finally lose it.

Sunak looks a lot happier now that he does not have to try and convince everyone with his BS anymore

Labour will get rid of the cap once they've costed it, it will happen in the first or second budget. They were elected on fiscal responsibility, they can't chuck that out of the window now.

@MikePhillips-pl6ov Ай бұрын

@@ValerieMcIntyre-cg6rwno such thing as an illegal war, 'legal' and 'illegal' depend on what combatants on both sides call them. Not that I supported the Iraq War. But this 'illegal war' phrase that people throw around is a meaningless one.

@MikePhillips-pl6ov Ай бұрын

Correct, and it wasn't in the King's speech, so MPs should not be trying to force it on the first day of the new government in PMQs! What did Flynn and co expect.

no economist but a comprimise solution would be keep it BUT increase it to three in tax year 2025-26 and then if the financial waters are sound to four and keep it at four in tax year 2028-29

You might be right, but you know who are the best at that? The Tories. PPE comes to mind. They were going to spend £10bn on Rwanda, I wonder how much of that was going to line their pockets. Glad they're gone.

It’s as if the only key to reducing child poverty is the two child cap on universal credit, if we really want to reduce child poverty in a meaningful and lasting way it has to be about more than that.

@jakestevenson6388 Ай бұрын

It is the single greatest cause of child poverty in the UK though. The data is very clear, child poverty exploded after it was introduced.

@californiadreamin8423 Ай бұрын

⁠@@jakestevenson6388. The single greatest cause of child poverty was the Tory party with their 14 years of fiscal incompetent corruption. Watch this space.

The truth is I have 3 children and I’m not against keeping the cap . The truth is there are sections of our community from other ethnic backgrounds who traditionally have many children . The state should I not fund those cultural/religious choices on family numbers . Most who are sanctioned and had their whip removed have predominantly Muslim constituents and larger families . I have no problem our Muslim citizens having a lot of children . That’s their choice , and the same applies to catholics and Jewish families or any other group who want big families , but don’t expect me to pay for it !!!!

It's funny how the two child gap is only now being discussed when Labour are in power. I barely remember it getting a mention in the Times under the Tories over the last few years. It just shows that the press judge the two parties using different methods...

Have you gone back 4 decades or something, when that term was imagined because of a vote to get rid of a dead Labour govt? SNP are centre left. The majority of SNP supporters come from traditional Labour backgrounds, who know we can only achieve a truly left leaning govt within an independent Scotland.
