Chancellor reverses tax cuts and energy help in Liz Truss’ mini-budget

The prime minister is not under a desk, declared Penny Mordaunt as she stood in for Liz Truss today in parliament - the mockery right on the edge of OK when the news is so grim.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
Earlier, in one of the greatest humiliations in British political history, the current Chancellor Jeremy Hunt had systematically reversed almost every economic policy she'd announced, scrapping or delaying tax cuts and warning of painful decisions to come.
Even the energy price guarantee, the central plank of her mini-budget, wasn't spared the chop; that will now end in April, not in two years.

    Here in Queensland, we have a unicameral Parliament, and as soon as the Opposition displaces the incumbent party, a big shake-up of the electoral boundaries (read 'gerrymander') happens, and the new Government settles in for ten or more years, until incompetence and corruption is so obvious that the gerrymander can't protect their position. This is thanks to an opportunistic move by the Labour Party in 1922 to 'save money' by deleting the Upper House.

    The Conservatives are done Sir Charles, whether you like it or not. If there was an election now or in a couple of years it won’t make any difference. The bigger issue is even if we had an election, are people naive enough to think that Labour would do a better job and make all these problems go away. There is a finite pot of money to run the country and whoever is responsible has to carefully look at using it fairly and responsibly on those that contribute now and have in the past. The government vanity projects, foreign aid and money that is currently squandered needlessly has to be stopped. Hunt talking about being tough is fair enough but only if it applies to everyone equally which it never does.

    The political leadership of the UK 🇬🇧 has lost all credibility, integrity and respect with its reckless actions and total disregard for the citizens. Interesting that no one talks about the effects of Brexit, that the reinstating of banker’s bonuses is seen as normal policy move coupled with the cutting of public funding and that every time the energy crises is mentioned there is mention of Ukraine and Russia.

    Robert Owen, a wise Scot, revolutionised his New Lanark Mill, by treating his workers with respect. To his critics he said that unless we treated workers with respect and fairness, there would be a revolution. Perhaps our MPs should study a little history - starting with the Industrial Revoution and the history of the industries of the Railways, the Mines and the Textiles. Unless they begin to recognise that this country is quickly sliding back into the divide between the rich and the poor, as in Victorian times, they will inevitably face a revolt by the general public. Already, there is an increase in theft of food, as many are facing hunger. Food Banks are experiencing huge demands for help, and not from scoungers. ( I work in one, so I know). The Tories must face the fact that their policies of 12 years have brought this country to its knees - the result? Need of the poor from the greed of the rich! Unless there is radical change, there will be rebellion. Truss and her Party have a lot to answer for!!
