Re: Starmer’s chronicles

I wonder how this will play out? It doesn't sound as open and shut a case as some but we need more info to judge.

Tulip Siddiq could lose job if found she broke rules amid housing allegations, cabinet member suggests

Anti-corruption minister Tulip Siddiq could lose her job if the investigation into her properties finds she broke government rules, a cabinet member has suggested.

Science Secretary Peter Kyle was asked about Ms Siddiq on Sunday Morning with Trevor Phillips.

She has referred herself to the prime minister's independent adviser on ministers' interests, Sir Laurie Magnus, following reports she lived in properties in London linked to allies of her aunt, Sheikh Hasina, the deposed prime minister of Bangladesh.

Your three sources don't back up this bold allegation. They demonstrate that Reeves is worse on Truss than just one measure.

That's not tanking the economy worse than Truss did, by any stretch of the imagination!

I posted before the election that winning it for whichever party was going to be a poisoned chalice due to the state that public services were, the debt that we were in and the lack of growth. Nothing's changed on this front but it's a shame the government can't be honest with the electorate and explain that more money is needed due to Covid and under-funding and you will have to pay for it. That being said, a song and dance is being made about employers' NI contributions. I'm sympathetic on that to some extent, but I'm also aware that it's restoring employer NI rates to what they once were under the Conservatives.
