Liz Truss crashed the economy and sent mortgage rates rocketing after £45bn of unfunded tax cuts. Now Jeremy Hunt is promising an up to £230bn unfunded tax cut with a pledge to eradicate national insurance. Rishi Sunak must explain how he will pay for this promise. 👇
@darrenpjones This is bollocks, any effect of Truss has long-since dissipated. Interest rates were never going to remain at post Bank Crash (remember that?) and Covid, emergency, near-zero rates, particularly with inflation of 10%, and would have to increase nearer the 7.5% last seen under Lab
@darrenpjones Marvin Reese is bankrupting Bristol what's your point bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-n… #RuleBritaniaThangam
@darrenpjones @Dave4PrincesEnd So you support a high tax policy then Darren?
@darrenpjones Crying about a minor tax cut isn’t the big vote winner you think it is
@darrenpjones Politics apart, I find it staggering that the Shadow Chief Secretary to the Treasury could post such garbage that can easily be disproved. We really deserve better MPs.
@darrenpjones *community note Mortgage rates in the the US and across the world rose to offset inflation Indeed the rate today is higher than when Liz ‘crashed’ the economy This man is lying to you It’s my duty to highlight this But feel free to believe in lies. Never ends well
@darrenpjones So Gordan Brown crashed the economy in 2008?
She did not,you know it,we know it,remind me what are the interest rates in Europe and the USA,Is that her fault of. The BOE cause the problems,stop being lazy,look at the facts and also the global economy, Can you remember labour wanting longer harder lockdowns which would have cost tens of billions more in borrowing and interest , remember Starmer insisting we had more lockdowns ?
@darrenpjones Glad my pension and stocks have gone up in value since this announcement.
