@MikeTappTweets Think your party membership should have to approve any potential new leader and not just MPs….same should apply for all political parties.

@Platypuss_10 JAL and Qantas!!

@MatthewStadlen I can’t stand Keir Starmer, but I’d ask the same question. What will actually change under Burnham? Will anything actually improve? Just not seeing it!!

[Dáireo @Alpha2007D]

@stuey_beef The British state pension is abysmal; keeping the triple lock is the absolute bare minimum.

There’s zero willingness to cut wasteful spending elsewhere that delivers no value to the country.

If we want to tackle unaffordable pensions, look at public sector pensions instead.

@GayTory He’s king of the north, init!! Come to rescue us 🙄😳👀

@JMesh92 Oh who cares what others think, as long as you’re happy!!

Uncomfortable truth…

The UK has mandated high minimum wages, social security, healthcare, maternity leave and high workers rights for 25years.

During that time the UK middle class has fallen faster against the US middle class.

If the UK was a US state it would be 51st - the poorest.

The average person in the USA (even after they pay insurance) is more than $1000 a month better off than a Brit.

I’m not saying workers rights and social safety nets aren’t a good thing for their own reasons BUT they clearly don’t generate prosperity at the middle.

You can’t regulate and tax (like this) for a strong middle class. You need economic growth first and then you can talk about how it’s divided.

Trying to slice up a stagnant or shrinking economy is a fools errand. When the economy is weak the first order of business is to take the breaks off and get it going again - it’s in everyone’s interest to do this.

For the full debate…

@GayTory Think people are going to become intimately familiar with the IMF sooner rather than later….we will all learn the hard way!!

The Bank of England openly tracks private sector pay as the key gauge of domestically‑generated inflation pressure.

So what does it tell you when private pay growth drops to its lowest rate in years while public sector pay continues to outpace it?
It tells you the productive side of the economy is being choked while the protected side is still on a guaranteed escalator.

Businesses are cutting back, households are tightening belts, but the state has insulated itself from the very conditions it helped create through higher taxes, higher regulation and relentless cost‑pushing.

This is not “fairness”; it is a transfer from risk‑takers to risk‑free employees, enforced by HMRC and dressed up as social justice.

@GayTory I don’t think people have any idea how bad things will become. I’m open to being wrong but also open to winning the Euromillions 👀

[Dáireo @Alpha2007D]

@ItsJamesHall We went with a two year tracker after our five year fixed term and have now gone with a 5 year fixed again as got a good deal. My cousins in the US have 20 year fixed rate mortgages, so none of this messing about like we have to do with remortgaging.

[Dáireo @Alpha2007D]

@GayTory 😳 😂 well at least you noticed. I once booked accommodation, showed the day and month but not year on receipt…we arrived to realise was booked for the following year 👀😳. We had to get other accommodation for night 1, and then return. The other half was thrilled

@LBC @bphillipsonMP How loathsome to tax parents who work hard to educate their kids. It perfectly exposes Labour’s anti-aspiration mantra and proves their core ethos to the next generation: hard work doesn't pay. @UKLabour party are the politics of envy personified. #Labour #socialismatitsworst

[Dáireo @Alpha2007D]

@TrisOsborneMP @Conservatives To restore trust in politics, we need an independent ethics office that’s able to sanction MPs who spread misinformation online. Even better: give them the power to vet and approve all social media posts and party political broadcasts before they go live.

@SchizoMellie That’s very homophobic!!

[Dáireo @Alpha2007D]

@mradknight I do too, but prefer a good Spag Bol. Good
