Of course, it would be better if it hadn't been announced with such certainty in the first place. But U-turning does kill off (or at least dampen) that message that they're only interested in the rich. Fiscally, yeah still a Trussterf**k. Add £40BN of lost income annually to the Treasury due to Brexit to that and you've got a big black hole they're not going to be growing their way out of any time soon. Interesting to see donor(s) jumping ship. The other thing with all of this is that people seem to have forgotten it was the Tories increased taxes substantially in the spring. These cuts don't offset those increases. People will still be paying more tax than they would a year ago, but now also have lower purchasing power from real term wages falling, higher mortgages, double household energy bills, all on top. The energy cap is welcome of course, but not enough journalists are pushing them over the mechanism to deliver it - more borrowing, so we're effectively subsidising ourselves. I really hope this kills off once and for all the myth that the Tories are fiscally responsible. it's always been bollox. Studies have shown no difference between the parties on fiscal responsibility. You just get hammered services with the Tories. |
How did we get here? A completely incompetent 'government' who seem to have gone full-on 'Hitler in his bunker' mode. Benefits of Brexit = £40bm deficit, loss of freedom of movement, further massive public cuts. I've never been so uninterested to be British. It's even quite embarrassing to be honest. Certainly not something not to shout about. |  |

Kwarteng to U turn on 45p tax rate….. on 08:12 - Oct 3 by NthQldITFC | That's one small step back. What I'd like the conservative Conservatives to force now is the abandonment of the abandonment of responsible planning laws and protection for the environment, in the name of Investment Zones. That's one particular aspect of these bastards' philosophies which I think is pure and irreparable evil, and completely against the ethos of conservatism. |
Someone else finally noticed the Conservatives don’t want to conserve anything. |  |

Kwarteng to U turn on 45p tax rate….. on 10:34 - Oct 3 by giant_stow | I've seen lots of this (wealthy people saying they don't or need the tax cut). Personally, I think they can see that the society's acceptance of high earners is at or near breaking point. A bit of enlightened self-interest going on. |
We don't want it, we don't need it, but for the love of god don't give it to people struggling to eat and stay warm! |  |

That face Truss makes before answering each question... She's going to confront Putin at the G20. I hope there are no cameras for that. It would be pure cringe. |  |

It’s nothing to do with ones nationality (I’m English and proud of it) and their ineptitude has actually nothing to do with me either - other than I, along with millions of others, have to pay for their disgusting and malicious incompetence. Just seen Kwarteng trying to spin the money for the wealthy shocker as some sort of caring, in tune, we are listing tosh. He needn’t bother. |  | |  |

Kwarteng to U turn on 45p tax rate….. on 07:23 - Oct 3 by ElderGrizzly | Should remember its only £2bn of the unfunded £45bn cuts that spooked the market. Kwarteng will be gone soon, with Truss saying it was ‘his idea’ only yesterday. |
As you say, the reverse on cutting the 45p tax rate is barely 5% of the unfunded spending in the mini-budget - spinning this as good news reminds me of the old hospital joke... Doctor: I'm sorry, Mr. Brown...I've got some bad news, but some good news as well for you. Mr. Brown: Better give me the bad news first... Doctor: I'm afraid we're going to have to amputate both your feet. Mr. Brown: That's terrible...what's the good news? Doctor: The chap in the bed opposite really likes your shoes and wants to buy them. |  |
