@EdwardNRose1@GBPolitcs UK standing charge is legalised extortion forcing us to pay a daily fee to bail out failed energy corporations and fund smart meter rollouts we never wanted.

@L_4tune Green want to raise minimum wage which will kill any tax coming from businesses and any growth and jobs. It will destroy the economy. Then what?

@scullyp@LucyMPowell@edballs NMW going up. NIC going up. Business rates going up. Employment Rights Act. Pension Age increase. I wasn’t a fan of Gove reforms, but think Powell needs to look closer to home.
@JohnCotton@sarahsmithlab You’ll find many of them able to speak multiple languages, inc. English. Bigger issue would be the many that speak only English and still not getting a pass at GCSE.
@AyoubKhanMP True democracy relies on honesty. When a government uses privacy laws to hide the background of its lawmakers, it forces voters to choose their leaders in the dark.
