The Conservatives have lost the confidence of the public and the markets - it will take more than a screeching u-turn to undo the damage for millions of homeowners.

The Conservatives should recall Parliament and sort out this mess for the good of the country.

We Get It

You want to cut public services that are already hurting by £18bn a year while your chums, tax avoiders & evaders, keep £100bn +from us

We know whose side you’re on

[Ed Davey @EdwardJDavey]

They didn't listen when people's mortgages soared, the pound crashed and our economy tanked.

Kwasi Kwarteng must resign now and this rotten budget needs to be scrapped.

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

This is nonsense. To make that stamp duty saving you'd need to be buying a £500,000+ property.

With 10% deposit, cheapest fix mortgage would cost £2,400/mth (£28,000/yr). How can someone on £30k afford that

I am asking treasury to remove.

[Richard Foord MP @RichardFoordLD]

Let’s be clear, the only reason Kwarteng has shelved plans to cut taxes for the wealthiest is because of the political backlash. He still thinks it is the right idea and went ahead with it despite the cost of living crisis. The Chancellor is woefully out of touch and must go.

Liz Truss says her mini-budget takes advantage of the economic "opportunities" of Brexit.

A new poll for @BylineTimes finds that 62% of people believe Brexit has made us all worse off, while 61% of decided voters say they would now vote to rejoin the EU. https://t.co/DamVuK6PRP

It’s called masochism…

I understand why rich people vote tory, but for the life of me l don't understand working class tory voters.

"Bills too high? Get a better job."

Straight up Lord of the manorism from Jake Berry & the Liz Truss Tory Party today at the #ConservativePartyConference.

As I wrote for @BylineTimes, it's a medieval mindset for the social media age & you are to blame.

Kamikwazi is drowning live on radio.

[Gwyn Williams 🇪🇺 🏃 🔶 💙 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 @dragw]

@pacarnahan @smithwax2 The problem with this is that Kamikwazi and Blundertruss can only count to five.

[Alex Tiffin @RespectIsVital]

Britain ranks poorly against other developed nations when it comes to the amount of social security it provides people in need.

By poorly I mean, the worst in the OECD. We aren't the benefit utopia the right make us out to be, not even close.

[Gwyn Williams 🇪🇺 🏃 🔶 💙 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 @dragw]

@LordAshcroft I thought that you @Conservatives were all in favour of pouring human faeces everywhere, or does that only apply to our rivers and beaches?

[Jessica Simor KC @JMPSimor]

The Chairman of the Tory Party is very clear: people on income support or low wages; nurses, teachers, traffic wardens, rubbish collectors, cleaners, cashiers should not be able to afford to heat their homes. This is what they are.

[Femi @Femi_sorry]

They wanted to deprive poor kids of school meals.
They wanted to give rich kids the top A-level grades.
They wanted to cut civil servants pay in the poorest areas.
They wanted to give £55K tax cuts to millionaires.

Every U-Turn they make just shows they'd hurt you if they could.

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

Memo to media …. This is not a “new government”. It is a new Prime Minister and team. Tory government has been in power for 12 years

[Gwyn Williams 🇪🇺 🏃 🔶 💙 🏳️‍🌈 🇺🇦 @dragw]

They had the Tufton Street nutters the IEA on #r4today again. When will they ever learn?

[Alastair Morgan @AlastairMorgan]

It's incomprehensible to me that the BBC even offers a platform to Brexiteer zeros and has-beens like John Deadwood and others. Why not wheel on Putin-admirer and Trump devotee Nigel Farage? These people are proven idiots and sensible people don't want their lunatic views.
