Really important to understand this. Talk of “austerity” is way overblown in context of what govt announced in October and by comparison with stated plans of last govt. Had they implemented those plans (unlikely) that really would have looked like austerity.

Perhaps people who are celebrating the cuts to Aid in the USA and Uk - and think that “it was all corruption and woke nonsense” would like to read this thread on the real world impacts of cuts to development for hundreds of millions 👇

On 6 June 1944, Allied troops landed on the Normandy beaches and the battle to liberate Europe began.

80 years on since D-Day, the largest amphibious invasion in the history of warfare, we remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in defence of our freedom.

NI cuts are big, "paid for" by squeezing fiscal headroom further and raising some small taxes. Big picture hasn't changed:

- debt high & stable, not on a downward path

- taxes overall up a lot over this parliament

- spending plans for next parliament look v tight indeed.

The gender activity gap is stubborn, and women face many barriers to getting active, like fear of judgement meaning they are missing out on the physical, mental and social rewards of an active lifestyle.

That's why as part of our #UnitingTheMovement strategy, we’ve invested in hundreds of organisations like @ProjektsMCR 🛹

The Chancellor left his provisional post-election spending plans effectively unchanged in today’s #Budget2024.

Sticking to them would require cuts to unprotected public services of around 3.3% per year, under a plausible set of assumptions.

[Paul Johnson @PJTheEconomist]

Keeping planned growth in day to day spending at 1% p.a. real over next parliament.
Key point is that, with bigger increases nailed in for health, defence, and childcare, other public services will need to be cut - by c£20bn p.a. by 2028 on our calculations.

21st century Britain... Children wearing coats/gloves in freezing classrooms. Schools riddled with leaks, RAAC and asbestos. All caused by lack of infrastructure investment and poor strategic thinking. And that's without mentioning the NHS or councils... #shambles #BrokenBritain
