🔥 Nigel Huddleston Just Delivered A Masterclass In Economic Reality And Labour’s Bridget Phillipson Didn’t Like It
In a heated exchange, Shadow Treasury Minister Nigel Huddleston cut through the spin with blunt truth about tax:
“It’s not government’s money. It’s not your money. It’s the public’s money.”
When Labour’s Bridget Phillipson snidely shot back with “Thanks for the lecture,
Nigel,” Huddleston fired right back, visibly frustrated:
“It’s not a lecture, it’s economic reality. All government expenditure comes through raising taxes, taking money out of people’s pockets, and then you’re choosing to give it to other people. Do you understand how angry people are that you are taking from hard-working families who are struggling as well?”
Spot on, Nigel.
Hard-working Brits are being squeezed harder than ever by this Labour government, higher taxes, National Insurance hikes, and endless spending, while many feel the money is being funnelled toward those who aren’t contributing and open-door policies that prioritise illegal migrants over our own struggling households.
People are fed up. They’re working longer, paying more, and seeing less in return. Families are cutting back on basics while the government lectures them about “fairness” and reaches deeper into their pockets.
Nigel isn’t grandstanding. He’s stating what millions of taxpayers already know in their bones: Government has no money of its own. Every pound it spends is taken from someone, usually the same people already battling bills, rents, and stagnant wages.
Well said, Nigel. Keep holding them to account. 🇬🇧
@SaulStaniforth@up_again Can some 1 please explain where all the NI contribution have gone if pensions are being paid for from the GDP.
Most people have paid NI 35 yrs I have paid it for 45y my wife is still paying it and has 45 qualifying yrs but we’ll probably only claim a pension for 5/10 yrs if lucky
Labour: We can’t afford to keep the triple lock pension
Labour: But we can afford to give every year..
£15.2 billion in Foreign Aid
£5 billion for illegal immigration
£40 million to protect Mosques
£ 2 billion to help Foreign Climate Aid
£1 billion to Aid the war in Ukraine
£500 million to France to stop the boats
Have I’ve missed anything …
This government can’t have it both ways.
If a State Pension is being classed as a benefit then it should not be used as part of your tax allowance as benefits are non taxable.
Keir Starmer informing parliament that anyone who pushes a wheelie bin towards the police will “feel the full force of the law”
But putting a police officer in hospital is perfectly fine.
Restore Britain has today filed formal complaints with the BBC and Ofcom regarding the BBC’s decision to exclude the party from its Question Time by-election special.
The complaints raise serious concerns about the BBC's compliance with the Ofcom Broadcasting Code during an active electoral period.
The BBC owes the voters of Makerfield an explanation, and we have today referred the matter to Ofcom, calling on the regulator to urgently examine whether the corporation has met its legal obligations.
We are calling on Ofcom to assess the complaint as a matter of urgency ahead of polling day.
The BBC must provide its full editorial rationale for the exclusion.
We want answers.
After 20 years in the British Army, I asked the @PoppyLegion for some assistance.
Last year they made £56.6 million from the poppy appeal and the best they could do was to reply with 'Ask Citizens Advice'
And to think I've helped raise money for this lot!!!
@UponTyneNews
The entire mainstream media has spent two weeks harassing and abusing Rupert Lowe.
He stands up in Parliament, and reads out the harrowing testimony from multiple rape gang survivors.
Not a single channel/paper covers the testimony.
That tells you everything you need to know.
The treatment of Henry Nowak is a far worse than George Floyd.
@HantsPolice are despicable.
Every one of those involved in this desecration of humanity should be jailed for as long as the cowardly Sikh assassin.
White Lives Matter.
We've seen Keir Starmer ignore Wayne Broadhurst. We're seeing him ignore Siobhan White, the mother of Rhiannon White. Now we're seeing him ignore Henry Nowak.
No one should stay quiet about this.
These are real people and real families. Henry Nowak was a young man with his whole life ahead of him, yet the Prime Minister has not even publicly acknowledged him.
The very least his family deserves is that.
On the left: British citizens who were arrested, processed and jailed within weeks over mean tweets.
On the right: Two thugs who savagely attacked officers in an airport with video evidence. No retrial. Still free to walk among us.
There is a sickness on this island.
If the WHO is saying that Ebola is spreading fast then why is our Government not stopping the Dinghy’s arriving?
Surely that’s the first thing they would do wouldn’t they?
Britain is broke.
Not a recession broke. Not a bad year broke. Properly broke.
The shop costs twice as much for half a trolley.
The heating clicks off at nine.
The petrol is creeping up again because of a war you did not vote for, in a strait you cannot find on a map.
The NHS has seven million people waiting.
The streets are not safe.
The kids cannot leave home.
The pensioners cannot pay their bills.
Meanwhile.
£8 million a day on asylum hotels.
£15 billion a year on foreign aid.
£24 billion borrowed in April alone, the worst since Covid.
Ask why and you are a bigot.
Ask again and you are a racist.
Ask a third time and you are a fascist, a far right hate monger, a danger to society.
Millions of decent British people are not angry because they are bad.
They are angry because they have not been put first in their own country, in their own lifetime.
Not once.
Not under Tories.
Not under Labour.
Not under Lib Dems.
Not under coalitions.
Thirty years of being told the queue starts behind everyone else, including the people who only arrived yesterday.
This is not racism.
This is exhaustion.
And it is justified.
