A New Start With Starmer

[Blackcountry Kid]

Jonathan Powell was appointed special envoy in early Sept a month later Lammy was announcing the surrender to claims which had no merit in law or otherwise.
Talk about a rushed job!
Yes discussions did take place under the last government but were halted not conceding anything.
good luck to all

ps just read on news app he now wants a ‘more relaxed’ attitude to terrorists,is this guy for real?

[He Didnt Like Ground]

Kid have you read Johnsons thoughts on Trump …. The conservatives are also no longer using the word ” Tory” , they believe it’s associated with sleaze …. I’m sorry but if they believe that’s going to fix all there issues then they really haven’t learned a thing ….

[Wilts]

Starmer’s Labour doesnt understand business or basic economics.
Disaster pending, folks.

[homersimpson]

And Truss and Kwarteng did. Disaster already happened which now Labour have to try and fix. Admittedly not the best government to do this.

What should they be doing Wilts ? , if there’s a huge black hole to fill how else do you fill it bar raising taxes ? , you say a disaster is coming , this isn’t backed up by the markets or Bank of England , sim could not be said about the Truss budget , we can’t live for free , ageing population , many obese or drinking/druging to much so we have budget for this , or perhaps you believe like the right that we should cut taxes …like Truss

[Blackcountry Kid]

A little something for people to chew over.
The top 1% of taxpayers pay 29% of income tax,the top 10% of taxpayers pay 61% of income tax.
If these people leave then you will have a ‘black hole’ scary isn’t it?
good luck to all

[He Didnt Like Ground]

Ah kid , so we have to kneel down to the elite and let them dictate how the country is governed …. We,ve had 14 years of this , it didn’t work , if they want to leave then leave , opportunities for others to fill the gaps they leave , if you don’t want us at our worst then you don’t deserve us at our best…

Relative to the budget and inheritance tax for farming, does this represent the Labour mindset?

John McTernan- Former Labour Advisor.
“Farming is an industry we can do without”.

I’m just curious to know, if there is no farming, then where does the food come from and what happens to the land?

Import it all?
Without traditional farmers, the big corporations will take over completely and I think we can guess the rest.

[Gladiateur]

“Former”

Key word.

[griff11]

Noted Glad, but I’ll also note the recent budget changes to inheritance tax.

In general, farmers are not cash rich and many carry substantial overdrafts to continue in business.

What is to be achieved by cutting off the hand that literally feeds you?

[He Didnt Like Ground]

If the farm is a limited business then if parents/child are noted as directors then the business would continue even in death , no inheritance tax to pay

[Matron]

It is a lot more complicated than just forming a limited company:
