Beep beep beep beep…:.. 08:34 - Jul 29 with 1914 views | Joesus_Of_Narbereth | What’s that noise? Oh it’s just the government slamming into reverse on all of their wonderful “fully costed” pledges and manifesto commitments. After spending the last decade and a half slagging off previous governments for austerity, cuts and not spending enough they are now happy to do exactly the same thing for the next decade and a half. This country is broken. I wouldn’t trust any of these middle manager types from either side to run a small corner shop, let alone the country. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c724g07qwdwo | |

Beep beep beep beep…:.. on 09:28 - Jul 29 with 1386 views | JACKMANANDBOY | The £20 billion is a political move. The Government spends 1200 Billion a year. £20 Billion on infrastructure projects if spread over 5 years is easily lost on the rounding. Politicians taking us for idiots again I'm afraid. | |

Beep beep beep beep…:.. on 09:51 - Jul 29 with 1335 views | Joesus_Of_Narbereth | Reeves must think we stupid. It was her role for four years to scrutinise the accounts and government spending and hold them to account. Now suddenly it’s a massive surprise how bad things are. Nah not buying it love, just like nobody bought your plagiarised book that was copied and pasted from Wikipedia. How much longer must we suffer these intellectual pigmies to systematically dismantle this country? | |

Beep beep beep beep…:.. on 09:51 - Jul 29 with 1333 views | johnlangy | Well maybe not 14 years. But i'm willing to wait and see what she says she's going to do rather than base an opinion on what the BBC thinks she's going to do. Or even what other posters think she's going to do. | | | |
Beep beep beep beep…:.. on 09:58 - Jul 29 with 1318 views | Whiterockin | I am will to bet even she doesn't know what she is going to do. | | | |

Beep beep beep beep…:.. on 18:07 - Jul 29 with 1004 views | howenjack | I was looking at you tube the other day and watched a video of Enoch Powell being interviewed . I later learned that he was of welsh descent could read classical Greek at 6 years of age spoke it at 12. He was also an accomplished violinist and gymnast . He was the youngest brigadier in the army . He also spoke 12 languages fluently including urdu and welsh . He got a double first at Trinity Cambridge . What have we got now ? David Lammy who thought Henry 7th succeeded Henry 8th and Angela 2 homes Raynor.. and not forgetting Rachel Reeves . [Post edited 29 Jul 18:14]

Beep beep beep beep…:.. on 18:22 - Jul 29 with 959 views | majorraglan | She’s basically saying the previous regime had buried the bad news and hidden it from sight, the contingency budget of £9bn allegedly overspent by 300% in the first 3 months of the new financial year - if that’s true it’s disgraceful. A £9bn budget for 12 months already up to £27bn in the first 3 months of the year. We’ll know who’s telling the truth when the OBR publish their review of Reeves allegations about the Conservatives hiding things from them and the country. | | | |

Beep beep beep beep…:.. on 20:28 - Jul 29 with 863 views | Gwyn737 | I know from an education point of view, £4.7 billion was kept off the books by allowing LAs to use a ‘safety valve’ for accounting purposes, keeping it off deficits. One of many things that'll come to light, I’m sure. | | | |
