Re: Here comes the tax rises
It seems that Rach hasn’t yet grasped that an increase in employers’ National Insurance contributions will cost the public services substantially more to the extent that the net increase in resources she’s promised Wes Streeting for the NHS will be minimal. What is more, the inflation busting increase to the national minimum wage will make things even worse.

And it is strange to note that although the government is making much of its stance that the budget will not hurt ‘working people’ (not defined), she is increasing maximum bus fares from £2 to £3. Does she not realise that the ‘working classes’ are the biggest users of the bus?

The more we hear about the proposals that are expected to be announced in this forthcoming budget on Wednesday, the more bizarre and surreal it gets!

You wanted change? Well, this is what it looks like. High public spending, more borrowing, tax rises, carte blanche for maximum disruption by trade unions and nothing worthwhile to show for it. Same old Labour.

Roll on the next General Election.
