The Telegraph is saying the Tories are going to change the UK's fiscal rules to catch Labour out in the run-up to the general election. This is because they think that we're all terrified of the national debt. We shouldn't be, and what they're proposing is bonkers. A thread...

This woman from Wales was recently prosecuted for not paying her TV licence.

She made clear she'd been in an abusive relationship and relying on foodbanks, but was now able to pay in full.

The case went ahead and she got a £146 court bill and criminal record.

Am I going mad, or has Rishi Sunak just decided a policy that not only isn't in their 2019 manifesto, but is actively AGAINST their 2019 manifesto, so nobody voted for, and which was ruled illegal by the supreme court 3 hours ago, is now not only legal, but somehow ABOVE the law?

Carers deserve more than the pitiful allowance they’re getting

Unpaid Carers get paid roughly £76.75 for a minimum of 35 hours of caring per week (£2.20 per hour)

This is a disgrace and all political parties should be against this

Criminal gangs are a plague on Britain, exploiting young people to run drugs across county lines.

But this is a crass, populist attempt to distract from Conservative failure.

Instead of doing a Boris Johnson impression, Rishi Sunak should support the police to deal with crime.
