Re: National Budget 2026
Glad I never became a Premier League footballer or a famous rock star, I'd be missing out

Nigel Farage chose not to attend John Healey’s Budget speech in the Commons to prevent a possible "physical altercation", the Reform UK leader has claimed.
According to Mr Farage, his prayer card - which MPs place on seats to reserve them in the chamber - had been removed on Wednesday. He noted that he had already experienced a confrontation with a fellow MP during the state opening of Parliament on 13 May.
Speaking at a Westminster press conference following the address, he explained his absence as the Chancellor spoke.
"At the state opening of Parliament, I got involved… I didn’t want to… but I got involved in a physical altercation with an MP in the chamber,” Farage said.
"I didn’t make a fuss about it, I didn’t complain, but I could see given that my prayer card had been removed, I was heading towards another physical altercation. Just sometimes it’s better to avoid conflict…
… In a statement issued to the Press Association, a spokesperson for the House of Commons said a prayer card was removed because it did not display the relevant information needed to reserve a place.
The spokesperson said: “There are clear and long-established arrangements for members to reserve their own seats in the chamber using prayer cards displaying a valid date stamp.
Today, a prayer card placed on a seat did not display a valid date stamp and was removed in line with the usual chamber protocol.”
