If YOU are so smart. so clever, knows everything in the world that there is to know about national and international finance, why are YOU not the Chancellor?

 

You seem to have no idea about spelling or punctuation but knock both men and women who have spent many years working in finance.

 

IMHO the Labour party and Rachel Reeves have dome more damage to the UK economy in 6 months, than the Tories with all their PM's and Chancellors did in 14 years.

 

You have not even come up with any alternative plans or options.

What people hate is not the Labour party, what they hate is TODAY'S Labour party.

You may not have noticed but the Labour party of today, actually IS the Labour Party in its latest transformation. Cloth caps, whippets and clogs are out of fashion now.

 

Tea and sandwiches are no longer in favour at 10 Downing Street. more like fine wines and haute cuisine nowadays.

Lots of people have suggested improvements and Reeves could easily fix this if she wasn't blinded by leftist ideology.  I referenced a tweet that Ben Habib posted with basic common sense measures that could be taken:

 

Ditch net zero - save £50 billion per annum

Slash benefits for 3 million people not even looking for a job - save £30 billion a year

Eliminate benefits for foreigners - save £10 to £15 billion per annum

Mass deportation of all illegals migrants - save a minimum of £10 billion per annum

Sack half the civil service - save a minimum of £8 billion per annum

That’s over £100 billion per annum saving

Slash regulations on business.

Slash taxes on SMEs, working and middle classes, employment

Slash corporation tax

Stop cheap imported labour

 

Implement those measures and the UK will experience a golden age of unprecedented growth and prosperity.   

What benefits do foreigners get?

Are you talking about Asylumn seekers?

Ben Habib got the benefit of being brought to the UK as a child.

With an English mother, 

 

He never came to the UK via Channel Dinghies or stuck in the undercarriage of a plane.

 

Knuckled down and made a very good life for himself.

 

Given the thread title, I thought you were going to astound us all by announcing that he was boning Rachel from Customer Complaints.
