With Reeves plan for mileage tax on hybrid cars how will these Socialist geniuses be able to tell what mileage was electric and what mileage was petrol which had already been taxed?

The OBR has - of course - in effect confirmed that Rachel Reeves’s decision not to increase the basic rate of income tax had zilch to do with any late-arriving new information about higher tax revenues - which was what was briefed to the media at the time of the u-turn as the

Robert Peston Can Reeves be compelled to appear before the Treasury Select Committee to explain this? If there was deliberate market manipulation then parliament has a duty to investigate and if necessary refer her to the correct authorities.

Employee ownership was effectively killed off in Thursday’s Budget, and the people hurt most aren’t founders; they’re employees who dreamed of owning the business they helped build. Under the old rules, selling to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) was viable: A founder could

As a country, we will be spending £406 billion on welfare by the year 2030. Read that again. £406 BILLION. This is, in a word, insane. mattgoodwin.org/p/budget-insta…

Elon Musk just confirmed the most INSANE IPO in history. SpaceX is going public in 2026. $1.5 TRILLION valuation. Raising $30+ billion. That's the biggest IPO ever made. Beating Saudi Aramco's $29 billion record from 2019. But here's what everyone's missing: This isn't about

The Chancellor begins 2026 by reminding the world how little this Labour Government understands about markets and the economy. Really basic stuff that most students and City interns are taught in their first week.

Seriously? So the chancellor, responsible for the economic vitality of our entire nation, thinks the FTSE100 is a barometer of the U.K. economy? When the companies in it are mostly international conglomerates with the majority of revenue from overseas? Unreal.

The scrapping of an Eton-backed free sixth form in Middlesbrough tells us more about Labour than any manifesto ever could. A project designed to educate the brightest children from one of the poorest parts of the country was not stopped because it failed, cost too much, or lacked

If you earn £100 and pay £30 income tax you’re left with £70 You then buy £70 of fuel and you pay 59% fuel duty & VAT (£41.46 of the £70) Which means the government just got £71.46 tax from your hard earned £100 No wonder people can’t afford to live in the U.K

🚨 Since coming to power, Labour has handed 1.5million more Brits "no need to work" benefits. "We suddenly have an extra 1.5 million people in the last 18 months who are apparently so crippled by anxiety, ADHD and depression they can't work... This is a disaster!" Julia Hartley-Brewer

Since Labour came to power 1.5 million MORE people are in welfare, with no requirement to work EVER. That means over 4.5 MILLION people are now sat at home being paid for by the rest of us … and no one has a clue why 🔥

UK welfare numbers are absolutely STAGGERING: • 8.4 million people now claim Universal Credit • 4.17 million of them aren’t even required to look for work (Source: DWP, Dec 2025) That’s nearly half of all claimants not actively job hunting. Financial independence has never

Spain built a 385.9 mile high speed train line from Madrid to Barcelona it cost £8.1bn. The UK is still building a 140 mile high speed train line which will cost over £100bn. Who is stealing all the money?
