🚨 A FATAL WARNING TO BRITAIN: ANDY BURNHAM'S UPCOMING BUDGET IS ABOUT TO BREAK OUR COUNTRY'S BACK!

I do not think people truly understand just how dangerous Prime Minister Andy Burnham and this socialist Labour Government really are.

Leading economic analysts are warning that the upcoming October Budget is designed to pluck the British public until there is literally nothing left but bare skin.

Look at the terrifying hit list of tax raids Burnham is lining up for your household!

A brand new wealth tax on your property, a massive 28 percent hike on capital gains, a 40 percent inheritance tax raid, and a devastating 10 percent death tax to fund his social care schemes!

Entrepreneurs, investors, and family business owners are already fleeing Great Britain in record numbers, with claims for business relief collapsing by 25 percent.

Socialism always runs out of other people's money, but Burnham is accelerating our national bankruptcy at lightning speed. When you punish and destroy everyone who creates wealth, nobody is left to keep the lights on.

RT and SHARE this everywhere to sound the alarm before Labour breaks Britain for good! 🇬🇧🔥

[Mr T @TheMancMrT]

Labour have been in power for 2 years, 1 month and 22 days.

Not one single aspect of my life has gotten even slightly better or easier, in fact it’s quite the opposite.

I’ve worked my entire adult life and don’t claim benefits.

Party of the people? My arse! 🖕🏻

[MrBounceBack.com @Bounce_BackLoan]

Horrific scenes as thick as pig shit Energy Minister, Miatta Fahnbulleh, starts sweating from her lips as she is handed her arse on a plate over her batshit crazy lies.

🚨 EMERGENCY WARNING TO EVERY PENSIONER IN GREAT BRITAIN: LABOUR IS PREPARING THE ULTIMATE WEALTH GRAB!

If you worked hard for 40 years, paid your taxes, and saved for retirement, Prime Minister Andy Burnham has just placed a massive target firmly on your back.

The highly influential IPPR think tank, which is packed with Burnham's own inner circle, just published the exact socialist blueprint Labour plans to use to bail out their bankrupt government. 🤡

Look at the terrifying three step robbery they are demanding for the October Budget.

First, slapping National Insurance directly onto the incomes of 9.6 million British pensioners.

Second, hiking capital gains tax to a staggering 40 percent to crush your investments.

Third, a devastating 0.65 percent annual property wealth tax just for the privilege of living inside your own family home!

They label you "wealthy" to justify stealing the nest egg you spent a lifetime building. Yet they magically find endless billions to house illegal arrivals in catered hotels without blinking an eye.

They treat the generation that built this country like an absolute cash machine while engineering our total national decline. The mask has completely slipped.

RT and SHARE this everywhere to warn every single retiree in Great Britain before Chancellor John Healey raids their bank accounts! 🇬🇧🔥

[Joe Shalam @JoeShalam]

Britain’s job squeeze laid bare by new data today. In just two years:

🛍️ Retail: -124,000 jobs
🍽️ Hospitality: -85,000
💻 Information & comms: -63,000
🏭 Manufacturing: -62,000

Across shrinking (and often entry-level) sectors 371,000 jobs have gone.

Retail and hospitality alone has lost 209,000.

Public sector roles have expanded.

[Alan Smith @AlanJLSmith]

In the 24 months since Labour came to power, we've seen;

• Employer National Insurance increased from 13.8% to 15%.
• The employer NI threshold cut from £9,100 to £5,000.
• Income Tax and National Insurance thresholds frozen until 2031.
• Capital Gains Tax increased from 10% and 20% to 18% and 24%.
• Business Asset Disposal Relief increased from 10% to 14%, then 18%.
• Investors’ Relief increased and its lifetime allowance cut from £10 million to £1 million.
• Carried interest taxation increased and moved towards the Income Tax regime.
• Dividend tax rates increased by two percentage points.
• Savings-income tax rates increased by two percentage points.
• Property-income tax rates increased by two percentage points.
• Most unused pension funds brought into the Inheritance Tax net.
• Agricultural Property Relief restricted.
• Business Property Relief restricted.
• Inheritance Tax thresholds frozen for longer.
• The non-dom regime replaced with a more extensive residence-based system.
• VAT imposed on private school fees.
• Business-rates relief removed from private schools.
• Stamp Duty increased on second homes and buy-to-let properties.
• The Furnished Holiday Lettings tax regime abolished.
• Pension salary-sacrifice benefits capped at £2,000 before National Insurance applies.
• The Cash ISA allowance cut to £12,000 for most under-65s.
• A 22% charge introduced on interest from cash held inside non-cash ISAs.
• Restrictions introduced on transfers and cash-like holdings within ISAs.
• The Energy Profits Levy increased and extended.
• Investment allowances for oil and gas producers reduced.
• A new Vaping Products Duty introduced.
• Tobacco duties increased above inflation.
• Vehicle Excise Duty increased for many new cars.
• Electric vehicles brought into the Vehicle Excise Duty system.
• A new mileage tax announced for electric and plug-in hybrid cars.
• Air Passenger Duty increased.
• Climate Change Levy rates increased.
• Plastic Packaging Tax increased.
• A new Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism introduced.
• Making Tax Digital extended to more landlords and self-employed people.

Together they represent one of the biggest transfers of wealth from households and businesses to the Treasury in decades - with no noticeable improvement in public services.

Whether you're a business owner employing staff, a parent paying school fees, a farmer planning succession, an entrepreneur building wealth or simply someone trying to save for retirement...

You keep less of what you earn.
You keep less of what you invest.
You leave less to your family.

Death by a thousand cuts is becoming tax policy.

[Kelvin MacKenzie @kelvmackenzie]

The parents of 30,000 children have been forced to pull their kids from private school due to Labour imposing VAT on fees, but you will be unsurprised to learn one of them is not lefty Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh who sends ALL three kids to independents.
The Mail on Sunday, which revealed a classic piece of “ do as I say but not as I do” Socialism estimates her bill will be £50K.
I reckon it will be nearer £65K depending on the ages of the children.
Her pay as a minister probably wouldn’t be enough, so the bill is likely to be shared by her much cleverer husband, a City trader and hedge fund founder.
At home he’s not listening to all that Socialist shite from his 46-year-old wife and I presume has insisted they ALL go to private school.
In 2024 Ms Fahnbulleh ( who herself went to a private school) hailed the imposition of VAT on private schools.
She lives in South East London with her husband and clearly having seen the dreadful state schools in the area decided an independent was the answer.
Luckily, after two years of tax increases, she and her husband could still afford it.
30,000 couldn’t.

🚨📉THE SLOW DEATH OF BRITAIN:

We have shit water companies so we buy bottled water.

We have rubbish police so we hire private security.

We have terrible healthcare so we pay private hospitals instead.

Airbnbs in Cornwall pay council tax but get no rubbish collection, so they pay Biffa on top.

An awful lot of firemen are now volunteers.

NHS dentists don’t really work anymore, so you go private or you pull it out yourself.

Our roads are littered with potholes nobody fills. Your privately funded tyres and suspension are the collateral.

You are forced under threat of criminal prosecution to fund the BBC, and it’s so bad you pay for streaming to get news or entertainment anyway.

Your bins are collected fortnightly, so you drive to the tip. The tip now requires a booking, a permit and proof you live in the county.

Garden waste is a separate annual subscription. On top of the council tax that used to cover it.

Your GP surgery is an 8am phone lottery, so you pay £40 to an app to speak to a doctor in a different time zone.

CAMHS has a two year waiting list, so parents remortgage for private assessments.

Your child’s SEN provision is a legal entitlement, so you hire a solicitor to sue the council for it. The council spends more fighting you than the support would have cost.

Physio is a forty week wait. Your back does not have forty weeks.

Schools teach in portable cabins bolted to the playground because the actual building is held up by aerated concrete and hope.
Half of them are technically insolvent.

Parents fund the reading books, the glue sticks, the photocopier, the roof and increasingly the teachers wages - all via a PTA raffle and local fundraisers.

The state offers “free” childcare hours that don’t cover the nursery’s costs, so the nursery bills you a “top up fee” for the free thing.

Shoplifting under £200 is functionally legal, so Tesco hires guards - who crucially don’t even try to stop it - and you pay for them in the price of the milk.

999 takes an hour, so you buy the Ring doorbell, gather the evidence, file the report and get a crime number for the insurance you also pay for.

Court backlogs run to years, so anyone with money settles privately and everyone else gets nothing.

Legal aid is gone. Represent yourself.

Passport and DVLA backlogs are chronic, so the state sells you a fast track service to escape the queue the state created.

The trains are late whoever owns them, so you drive on the roads with the potholes.
Public toilets are shut, so you buy a coffee you don’t want.

The library is staffed by pensioners working for free.

Street lights are switched off at midnight to save money in a country with a burglary charge rate near zero.

You pay National Insurance for fifty years and they move the pension age.

You pay the adult social care precept every year and then sell your mother’s house to pay for adult social care.

Leaseholders pay for a “waking watch” because the state signed off the cladding and then billed the residents to fix it.

Social housing sits on the most valuable land in Britain, allocated by need rather than proximity to work, 48% of zone 1 social housing is occupied by foreigners mostly welfare dependent - while the nurses, teachers and other workers who keep zone 1 running commute ninety minutes each way from Kent because we stopped building anything in 1979.

Every one of these is a service you have already bought. The receipt is your payslip.

The tax burden is heading for its highest sustained level since the 1940s. The service level is the worst in living memory.

You are not overtaxed or underserved. You are actually BOTH, simultaneously, and the gap between the two is where your standard of living went.

The state has become a subscription you cannot cancel and cannot use.

Trump speech last night

-China and other nations did a massive exploit and stole voter data and worked to get Biden elected in conjunction with the deep state and NGOs
-Trump has an Axe to grind against China and why Taiwan will be secure and Japan stabilized
-the media acquiescence and political leaders are all implicated with overthrowing the government
-Maduro obviously has been squealing
About dominion and the machines to help cover the fraudulently stuffing of the ballot box

This is all tied into each other to wrest control from us and keep the overall scam running (Congress deficit to debt based on fraud of which we pay interest)

We all knew it was stolen, saw all their evidence and lived the wreck of what Biden and the cabal did, and now there is no denying it.

Declass 👉
Awareness👉
Threat of Prosecutions 👉leverage 👉
Legislation

SAVE ACT

Must be passed to solve the issue

Whether we get it done or not midterms will be the fight to solidify it all and obviously the cabal will deploy all their ill gotten gains, screw the economy, motivate the illegals, and get antifa/cartels to cause unrest setting the stage for the insurrection act as the counter move.

Save and Clarity act are the keys to re-founding the republic and securing the future

This why we are at a deadlock now

[BanksyCat @Banksycat]

UNBELIEVABLE. Your entire life sold to a billionaire and you never got a vote. DIGITAL ID. Blair brokered it, the King read it out like a shopping list, and 2.96 million of you signed a petition begging them not to. They read it, smiled, and did it anyway.

Here’s this COCKY IDIOT, smirking down the camera, telling you it's only what he was elected to do. The sheer NERVE.

They tried to force this in 2006 and the country threw it back. So they got clever. You don't force a leash on a country, you call it child safety and let them clip it on themselves. Optional, they say. Until the bank needs it. Until the job needs it. Until you can't buy milk without it. Optional the way a cliff edge is optional.

Embedded so deep that pulling it out takes the whole system down. Surviving every election. Every Prime Minister. Every one of you who never agreed to a word of it.

That's not a service. It's a LEASH. Heavy surveillance with a friendly logo, built to watch you, price you, and switch you off the second you say the wrong thing. Once it turns, it never turns back.

Now watch him smirk through it. FIVE times he stood there and said it's not possible. FIVE. Like a parrot that learned one phrase and mistook it for genius, reciting his greatest hits to a country that stopped clapping months ago, taking a bow in an empty theatre.

Wrong every time, he sneers. No, sunshine. Wrong about the boats. The bills. The borders. The only thing he's right about is how much he adores the sound of his own voice telling you he's right.

Watch what he's smirking THROUGH. The most despised Prime Minister this country has ever recorded. Ministers bolting for the door. MPs begging him to leave. A man waist deep in his own wreckage, straightening his tie for the cameras.

He was elected to serve this country. Not gift-wrap your private life and post it to the highest bidder who filled Blair's pockets fastest.

A landslide, he calls it. Won on barely a third of the vote, the emptiest mandate in living memory, worn like a crown God lowered onto his head.

Biggest NHS drop in 17 years, he beams. For ONE month. While 7.3 million still rot on the list.

Highest growth in the G7, he says. For ONE quarter. The next month it shrank. Funny how he forgot that bit.

Then everything he left off the brochure. TEN things not one of you voted for. Not one in his manifesto.

Winter fuel torn off ten million pensioners. Biggest tax raid since 1993. The thresholds Reeves swore she'd never freeze, frozen. Energy bills up after he promised cuts. The family farm tax. WASPI women promised the earth, handed a shrug. Grooming inquiry sat on six months. Post offices for the chop. Chagos given away.

And the tenth, buried deepest. Digital ID, held up behind the children like a human shield, because who argues with protecting kids. Then they vote to come for your VPN, the one tool that let you slip the net, and bolt the last door behind you.

Here's the punchline that should make your blood boil. Australia tried this exact ban. Months later the children strolled straight through it. It didn't protect ONE child. It was never built to. The children were never the point. The contract was.

Blair gets richer. Ellison gets richer. Then they plug it into Europe so the same machine prints money across a continent. Every regime that ever pulled this used the same excuse. China. Russia. North Korea. Protect the people. Then own them.

The children were never the target. They were the costume. You were never protected. You were harvested, and told to say thank you.

So watch him smirk and call it a mandate. It was never a mandate. It's the biggest robbery in plain sight this country has ever seen, dressed up as the will of the people and sold back to you as kindness.

Once it turns, it never turns back.

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

“Let me be clear…I broke numerous promises. I invented a £22 billion black hole to punish pensioners, farmers, the disabled, small businesses and students. I tried to give away Chagos and pay £35 billion to do so. I increased unemployment. I increased the government deficit. I appointed Peter Mandelson despite his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein having already been published in various media outlets. I promised to cut energy bills and council tax, but instead, the opposite happened. I did absolutely nothing to resolve the cost of living crisis and made it worse by increasing the tax burden to record levels. I prioritised hanging out with the Davos / BlackRock clique rather than genuinely ‘fixing the foundations’. I promised a ‘transparency revolution’, but instead, operated under smoke and mirrors and sacked colleagues and threatened suspending Labour MPs who voted against me. I spaffed £30 billion away on carbon capture machines. I failed to sort out the small boats / hotels for illegal immigrants. £3 billion a year to Ukraine and big hugs from Volodymyr. I smeared anyone who dared to criticise me a ‘far-right’. I sanctimoniously lectured everyone like they were naughty children. And I have absolutely no intention of resigning after disastrous local election results because I am right and everyone else is wrong. Me first. Country second.”

@Keir_Starmer is a man dying of a thousand cuts

Yet he hangs on.

You would think, if Labour Party had any self-preservation they would force him to step down.

Yet, they do not.

Which can only mean a couple of things.

There is zero replacement in labour, all the sitting MP are unqualified or got skeletons (I find this unlikely, Keir had plenty of time for people to hate him, surely the replacement would have a stay of execution and help the party till a better one can be found)

The people of the UK don’t care and he is arrogantly taking advantage of it

He is actually a double agent purposely destroying Labour with all the terrible decisions he has made, paving way for Reform or conservative to take the reins

[Wilkie (Richard Wilkinson) @WilkieisBack66]

Slave reparations!

I’m all in!

I’ve decided to personally gift £1 million Sterling to every single person my family ever enslaved.

Please form an orderly queue and bring:
• Ironclad documents proving my family personally enslaved you (bonus points if they include my great-great-grandpa’s signature and a Polaroid).
• Your birth certificate proving you were born before Britain abolished slavery on 1 August 1834.
• Proof you’re still alive (the gift can only be claimed in person, no ghosts, no estates, no “my ancestor told me so”).

Oh, and while you’re at it, maybe swing by the local cemetery with a shovel. I’m sure those poor souls buried since the 1800s would appreciate being dug up for their cheque. They’ve waited long enough, right?

Look, if we’re doing “reparations” for historical slavery, let’s do it properly: only to the actual victims. Not their great-great-great-grandchildren who were born free in the 20th or 21st century, sipping oat milk lattes while tweeting about “trauma.”

This isn’t justice, it’s a cosmic-level grift.

It’s like demanding the Roman Empire pay for the roads they built because some distant ancestor got conquered by Caesar. Or billing modern Italians for every Gaul who got turned into a slave 2,000 years ago.

Newsflash: No living person in Britain today was a slave under British law, and no living person in Britain today owned slaves under British law.

The people who suffered are dead. The people who profited are dead.

Their descendants, Black, White, Asian, mixed, whatever had zero say in it.

Chasing “reparations” from random taxpayers (including the descendants of abolitionists, coal miners, and people who arrived after 1834) isn’t healing historical wounds. It’s creating new ones while opening the most hilarious Pandora’s box in human history:

• Should Ireland demand reparations from Britain for the Potato Famine?
• Should Britain demand reparations from Denmark for the Viking slave raids?
• Should Italians bill Mongols for the sack of Baghdad?
• Should every African nation start invoicing each other for the centuries of tribal warfare and slave-trading that predated (and supplied) the transatlantic trade?

Where does the grievance chain end? 1066? The Bronze Age?
Lucy the Australopithecus getting stiffed on her cave rent?

Slavery was a universal human horror, practised by every civilisation from the Egyptians to the Aztecs to the Arabs to the Africans themselves (who sold millions into the trade).

Britain didn’t invent it.
Britain ended it, at massive cost, with the Royal Navy spending decades hunting slave ships while other empires kept right on going.

Demanding cash from people who never owned slaves, to give to people who were never slaves, isn’t “reparations.” It’s retroactive time-travel cosplay with other people’s money. It’s the ultimate participation trophy for historical victimhood: “My ancestor suffered, therefore I deserve a payout… even though I live in a free society with more opportunity than 99.9% of humans who ever lived.”

If you want actual justice, how about this radical idea:
Stop obsessing over who owes whom from 200 years ago, and start judging people by what they do today. Work hard. Build. Create. Don’t inherit grievances like their family heirlooms.

The desire for slavery reparations isn’t righteous anger. It’s lazy, entitled, historically illiterate greed dressed up as moral superiority, demanding a lottery win for a suffering you never endured, from people who never caused it.

My £1 million offer stands.
Just bring the paperwork.

And a time machine.

3 continents, 4 global office visits, 5 days. Crossed too many time zones to count...
Recently, @MonicaLongSF and I (along with others on the Ripple leadership team) traveled to Dublin, London, Singapore and Sydney to meet with the Ripple Team (many of whom joined from our acquisitions of GTreasury, Hidden Road, Rail, Palisade and Solvexia).

A few notes from the road -
1/ centers of gravity (business and/or employee) are never stagnant, and getting out of the US coastal mindset is imperative. It was incredibly energizing to hear from new and longtime Ripplers on what moves the needle where they are.

2/ Culture cannot be taken for granted. More than ever, we’re championing a maniacal focus and eliminating bureaucracy for employees to be owners. Don’t confuse activity with progress.

3/ Adoption doesn’t happen overnight. Platforms > point solutions. Meet customers where they are, not where they might be in a couple years.

4/ AI is becoming a fundamental part of our products – especially in cash forecasting and liquidity management in real-time for the office of the CFO. Employee productivity may be where AI starts, but the end goal is much bigger.

5/ 2026 is shaping up to be another defining year. We’re in the right markets with the right capabilities across payments, custody, liquidity and treasury management. There's a huge opportunity ahead, and we are making sure XRP is at the center of it.
