1/ With Cllr Melanie Felten, I���m calling on Croydon Council for an update on the safety improvements promised for the South Norwood Hill/Whitehorse Lane crossing.

Residents raised serious concerns, and the council committed to act. We now need a clear timeline for delivery.

Keeping Shabana at the home office makes sense. She’s already put her name to Labour’s tough asylum reforms and immigration bill. Gives Burnham continuity on the government‘s hardest brief, without months of drift or another policy reset. #Burnham #HomeOffice #UKPolitics

🚨 BREAKING: Shabana Mahmood will remain as Home Secretary

John Healey could be a shrewd Chancellor: 5 years Treasury experience under Gordon Brown, nearly 3 decades in parliament, credibility with business and unions, recent willingness to quit Cabinet on principle. Experienced, grounded and hard to caricature. #chancellor #Burnham

🚨 BREAKING: Andy Burnham has appointed John Healey as the new Chancellor

Lacklustre first half. Abysmal halftime break. Football fans just want to watch football. This is awful in every way. #ESPARG

Whatever your politics, @MayorofLondon record merits recognition. He expanded ULEZ and cut toxic air pollution, funded free school meals, launched the Superloop, froze TfL fares and backed revival in council housebuilding. A deserved peerage! #sadiqkhan #mayoroflondon

So Tuchel did exactly what Southgate used to be criticised for. Being negative. In fact he did it even earlier. So what exactly has he done differently…🤷🏾‍♂️ #ENGARG #Tuchel

Not many people will live for many years above the pension age. Unless you see your pension as inheritance to pass on please please focus on stocks isa and only use SIPPs when consolidating past pensions and reducing tax liability. I’d say get clued up about EIS / SEIS startups investing and use that instead of SIPP if you’re an entrepreneur or caught in the 100k tax bracket thing

Past attempts to impress with possessions are over. True happiness is found in financial stability and personal growth, free from the need for external validation. #PersonalGrowth #FinancialFreedom

The UK works because it’s stable, globally connected, culturally diverse, and offers high quality public services that many countries simply don’t match.

A diagnosis alone should not automatically mean a lifetime on benefits. Support should reflect how severely a condition affects daily life, while people with mild ADHD or anxiety receive treatment and help into work. Compassion and reform can coexist. #LBC #ADHD #Anxiety

[LBC @LBC]

People with mild ADHD and anxiety "should not get benefits," says Labour MP https://t.co/YKOpaa62H1

[Julien Allwood @DataJay92]

Zak, permanent residence and welfare access are not the same thing. Canada gives PRs most benefits, while Australia & US impose waiting periods for some support. Labour’s proposal is pragmatic, it is not abolishing ILR and it is not without international precedent. #immigration

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Labour plans to withhold benefits to people who have been granted Indefinite Leave to Remain.

Performative cruelty and total cowardice.

That’s why the Greens will replace Labour.

[Julien Allwood @DataJay92]

Smart move. He’s essentially doing an audit and using the time to connect with people.

@ruviexo Absolutely spot on! You serve people more as an entrepreneur than you do as an employee.

[Julien Allwood @DataJay92]

@cdglove98 A common mistake made I agree but this isn’t the case here. I’ll double down on my stance. Taxation isn’t the answer for growth. We must keep the wealthy within our borders and creating opportunities on UK soil for UK people 🇬🇧

[Julien Allwood @DataJay92]

There are 1.76m people unemployed. The top 1% of UK earners contribute approx 30% of all income tax. I don’t think people understand the ramifications of Britain’s wealthiest flocking abroad. You need wealth to create wealth! #garystevenson #economics

[Samuel Leeds @samuel_leeds]

Gary Economics has just ruined its credibility and proven that it clearly knows very little about economics.

The absolute tax legend @DanNeidle destroyed Gary in his own documentary.

The very documentary just a compilation of Gary being proven wrong time and time again about his "solution" to economic inequality.

Let me know if you have watched it.

The Dan Neidle debate has gotta be one of the best moments in the show!!

We need more council homes. Especially if it gives people the opportunity to purchase though the right to buy scheme.
The increasing monopoly of consortiums owning property is partly the cause of unaffordable rents. All these shiny new builds are empty!

[Hugo Gye @HugoGye]

England needs fewer council houses rather than more, @TheEconomist argues this week

'Rather than spending vast sums on building new council homes, Mr Burnham should instead raise all social rents to market rates.'

@paul_d_stevens @BenForster90 I’m going to push back on this point. We spend over 300bn on welfare, pensions being a major factor. Meanwhile the UK spends on 68bn on defence. That yearly increase can be frozen everything couple of years to redistribute resources to other areas of need. It is unsustainable.

[Julien Allwood @DataJay92]

@paul_d_stevens You make a great point here. ‘What drives economies is spending’. You are correct and what we must consider is the wealthy create jobs and opportunities. We need those opportunities in Britain not abroad. You need incentivise and encourage entrepreneurship not deter it.

[Julien Allwood @DataJay92]

We eagerly await Burnham’s plan to improve the economy. The positive I take from this, he understands you cannot ‘tax’ your way to growth. Not sure the feasibility but I’d like to see
-Stamp duty reduced
-Reduction in buy-to-let deposit thresholds #Burnham

[Steven Swinford @Steven_Swinford]

Exclusive:

Andy Burnham is considering announcing plans to cut taxes for low earners after entering Downing Street

The prime minister in waiting has held discussions with his team about potential tax cuts in his autumn budget to deliver on his pledge to help with the cost of living

Burnham and his senior allies believe one of Sir Keir Starmer's biggest mistakes on taking office was to strip pensioners of winter fuel payments and increase taxes, having campaigned in the election on a pledge to change Britain

They are weighing up options to show that they are serious about tackling the cost of living, including tax cuts, although no final decision has been made

The Times has been told that any tax cuts are likely to be modest — - Burnham has ruled out cutting income tax on the grounds that it would be unaffordable — - but he wants to "put more money back into people's pockets"

This doesn’t preclude tax rises on wealth, but there are indications that the Iran war has done less damage to the fiscal headroom than originally expected

A source close to Burnham said he was weighing up "several options" including possible tax cuts. "He is determined to do something to help people with the cost of living and I think you will see him signal that when he becomes prime minister," they said
