@YannDarwin The amount of actuators that are in this car is ridiculous.. it all looks good and all.. I think I am in the wrong business I should be making the actuators for these cars.

But the car itself looks amazing ngl… it looks like a Range Rover.

@FoneWire @andyburnham IR35 is causing significant damage to UK PLC. strategic projects relied on on highly skilled contractors. Now blanket bans on contractors by the enterprise companies that deliver projects this has resulted in large scale hiring of low sqep driving high cost overruns.

@mikecmorgan Happens to me all the time! No matter what car I am in and it very common and they never found anything. Keep safe Bruh…

Yes pretending and smile but inside you are 💯 fuming, irked and absolutely pissed and angry.😤

The UK’s welfare system should be a safety net, not a long-term destination for those who are capable of working.

We cannot continue increasing taxes on working people while welfare spending continues to rise. Social welfare reform is long overdue. Those who genuinely cannot work due to illness or disability should always be supported and protected. But for those who are able to work, the system should provide a clear pathway into employment, training, apprenticeships, or community service rather than indefinite dependency.

There is also a need to tackle benefit fraud more aggressively. Every pound lost to fraud is money that could have supported those who genuinely need help or been invested in public services.

Getting more people into work doesn’t just reduce the welfare bill—it grows the economy, increases tax revenues, helps businesses fill vacancies, and gives individuals greater financial independence and opportunity.

A welfare system should reward responsibility, encourage aspiration, and provide support when it’s needed—not create incentives for long-term dependency. Reforming the system fairly and compassionately would benefit taxpayers, employers, and society as a whole.

I applauded you on this initiative— but as you look at the, please also look at -

IR35 was introduced to tackle disguised employment, but in practice it has become a punitive tax regime that places an excessive burden on millions of contractors, freelancers, and highly skilled professionals who provide flexibility to the UK economy.

Many contractors now pay tax at rates comparable to employees while receiving none of the benefits that employment brings—no paid holiday, no sick pay, no employer pension contributions, no job security, and no redundancy rights. They often carry the commercial risks of running a business while being taxed as though they were employees.

The off-payroll reforms have also encouraged many organisations to adopt blanket IR35 decisions, removing genuine assessments of employment status and reducing opportunities for independent professionals. This has made the UK a less attractive place for specialist talent and has increased costs for both businesses and the public sector.

Rather than continually increasing the tax burden on productive workers and entrepreneurs, the government should focus on creating a simpler, fairer tax system that recognises the difference between genuine self-employment and disguised employment. Reform should encourage innovation, investment, and enterprise—not penalise those who choose to work independently.

The UK needs a tax system that rewards work, supports business growth, and remains internationally competitive. A thriving economy depends on people being willing to take risks, build businesses, and provide specialist expertise. Tax policy should encourage those ambitions, not discourage them.

Beyond IR35, there is a wider issue of what taxpayers expect in return for the money they contribute. If I pay tax, I expect basic public services to function properly: roads without potholes, rubbish collected reliably, and local councils that actually listen when residents raise concerns. I also expect everyday essentials like food to remain affordable, rather than becoming increasingly expensive while wages struggle to keep up.

There is also a growing debate around transport and environmental policy, including the taxation of electric vehicles. If the UK is serious about green policy and encouraging adoption of cleaner transport, then additional taxes on electric cars should be carefully reconsidered or revoked, rather than creating new barriers to uptake. The bus initiative that you rolled out in Manchester should be rolled out nationwide.

On economic direction, the UK should also be looking at how other European economies operate. Countries such as Poland have developed strong manufacturing bases and export-driven industries, building and shipping goods and services at scale. The UK should take lessons from this approach and focus more on rebuilding domestic production, strengthening industry, and creating a more sustainable, balanced economy rather than relying heavily on consumption and an expanding welfare state.

At the same time, there must be proper accountability for public spending. Significant concern has been raised about waste across successive governments. For example, investigative work such as the “Scandalous Spending Tracker” by Best for Britain highlights concerns that over £135 billion of public money may have been wasted during the Conservative years in power (https://t.co/ZwMdUYcr2y). Whether or not every figure is agreed upon, the broader point remains: taxpayers deserve transparency, scrutiny, and consequences for poor financial management.

Ultimately, the UK needs a reset in priorities—one that focuses on efficiency, accountability, economic productivity, and fairness. That means supporting independent workers, improving public services, investing in real economic output, and ensuring that every pound of taxpayer money is spent wisely and with clear public benefit.

“A single parent working full-time on minimum wage pays income tax and National Insurance. A person of working age choosing not to work receives support funded by that tax. That’s asking the working poor to subsidise the workable poor. That’s not compassion—it’s regressive.”

“If half of working-age benefit claimants entered the labour market, you don’t just reduce welfare spending—you increase tax revenue and GDP. That’s not austerity; that’s growth. More people contributing, fewer people dependent. The fiscal math flips.”

😂😂😂😂😂It’s crazy isn’t it… can you imagine how much money Apple made selling all those Mac minis? When there is a gold rush - sale the tools- a spade and trough 😂… it’s all about Fable and Mythos. Fable will be outdated in 6months.

But also have you seen when all the money move into SpaceX and AI, crypto has kinda died.. AI is bankrupting cryptocurrency… but now EU central bank now wants to create a new currency Euro coin.

And stocks are doing well one day and fall the next…
