Tesco could pay every worker an extra £10,000 and still make a profit. British Gas could pay every worker an extra £35,000 and still make a profit. Shell could pay every worker an extra £300,000 and still make a profit. It is the billionaires who are ripping you off.

Tomorrow, when you see the front pages of the right-wing press telling you how dreadful the budget was, remember their track record. Also remember that right-wingers won’t ever be happy with any budget that doesn’t push down on those at the bottom to benefit those at the top.

The only unaffordable thing in the UK is greed. £150bn Tax Evasion £80bn Tax Breaks £219bn Corruption £449bn - 40% of the entire budget STOLEN by the richest. That is DOUBLE the entire NHS budget. Take it back.

Britain is broke says Farage; standing next to Robert Jenrick who was part of the government that did the breaking. Daft tw*t.

Badenoch has forgotten that Thatcher sold off the family silver, Cameron ruined public services with austerity, Johnson ruined the economy for a generation with his Brexit deal. Then he pissed £billions up the wall with dodgy Covid loans and PPE contracts. Then we had Mad Lizzy!

Tesco are making £4bn a year in profit. About 50% of their staff are on Universal Credit. Why don't we crackdown on this unneeded benefit for billionaires?

Think of this....... before Bonfire night - Bolsanaro has lost in Brazil - the Student List took Serbia - Tommy Robinson could well be sent down - Standards will find Farage guilty - Netanyahu will likely lose - Trump will be screwed in the mid terms Interesting time to be alive

Well, well, well... 80% of "donations" to Nigel Farage’s party are from donors or companies based overseas. This is not normal. And the public deserves to know what these super-rich donors want back in return.

Royal Mail should be back in public hands. After years of missed delivery targets, Royal Mail has proven it can’t be run effectively by the private sector. That’s why I’ve called on the Government to renationalise it. If we fail to act, we risk losing Royal Mail for good.

Taxes for you 0% below £12,570 28% £12,571-50,270 42% £50,271-125,140 47% £125,140+ Taxes for companies 13.2% (average) even on tens of billions. You have crippling taxes, theirs, most of whose shareholders DONT live in the UK so don't pay any other tax. Are a joke

In the Budget HMRC will be granted powers to seize money directly from the bank accounts of people who fail to pay their taxes. Does this include people like Nadhim Zahawi, Lord Bamford and all the other massive tax avoiders. Or is it just for the little people as usual?

In absolute dreadful news for Reform, we’ve now had 14 consecutive days without a small boat crossing arriving in the U.K. with migrants.

1979: UK was sitting on a revenue bonanza from North Sea Oil, had National Debt of just £80Bn & owned all it's utilities, transport, infrastructure & millions of social homes. 2026: UK has £3Trillion national debt & virtually no assets. Capitalism has destroyed our kids' future

Sainsbury's has posted an annual profit of £1.02bn. It current has 10,000 young people working for free, paid by you. With £1.02bn it could hire 105,905 people aged 18-20 for 16 hours a week all year. Why not MAKE the scumbags hire instead of giving them free workers?

The UK is only in debt because it Privatised everything. If Margaret Thatcher had never existed and we never privatised Oil, Gas, Electricity, Airports, Water, Mail, Rail, Rolls Royce, British Airways... We would have Trillions of Pounds and own everything, just like Norway.

90% of England’s water industry is foreign owned. The result has been low investment, high customer bills, raw sewage in rivers, over 1,200 criminal convictions, and harms to nature, health and national security. Public ownership is needed. Watch the Minister's reply.

Private Corporations make £680bn profit a year in the UK. £12,350 from every single adult. On this they pay just 13.2% tax. Every penny of that comes from wages they don't pay, taxes they don't pay, and bills they overcharge you. This is what is unsustainable.
