A reminder, Andy, of the Thatcher era:
•⁠ ⁠Income tax: 83% → 40%
•⁠ ⁠Basic rate: 33% → 25%
•⁠ ⁠Inflation: 21.9% peak (1980) → 2.4% (1986)
•⁠ ⁠Days lost to strikes: 29.5 million (1979) → 1.9 million (1990)
•⁠ ⁠Real pay for the average earner: up by a third

@owenjonesjourno @LloydsBank @TheCanaryUK They can't be that worried about it - they turned off comments

@JohnHann04 It all started with Griggs vs Duke Power, 1971.

@robprogressive And remember the risk is not low. 73% of trading212's customers lose money trading CFDs for example. Stick to more regular investments and inflation actually eats away a significant portion of the 'gains' you are taxed on.

@MichelleDewbs But he won't be calling a general election. He's not a fool. Well, he is, but not that much of a fool.

@PatrickChristys The real question is, what is cash? Does that include money market funds or certain commodities?

@JadeBlairxox 16 in a day then, not 16 in a night!

"90% support it"

Yeah in the same way dictators "win" elections - its a made up stat; the survey was publicly available and there was NO way to say no lol

@Thisisdublin0 If it wasn't for X this wouldn't be fully reported. The Guardian still hasn't even mentioned it.

@mattwridley @MayorofLondon Constant problem near here in Kent. Destroyed that gate and the mountain of rubbish gets higher every day.

@CamillaTominey @MENSAIDINC Good looking, intelligent, powerful. What's not to like?

@SprinterPress $100m worth of MQ9

@EvaVlaar The liberal left will say they're not all like that, which is true. But try telling that to the woman who had both legs amputated.

@Geiger_Capital Knew the @dailytelegraph banned comments on it for a reason...

@financedystop Begging has moved from the streets to the place of work.

[Ian Crocker @ianc666]

This is why we don't want them in crowborough

[Ian Crocker @ianc666]

@AllisonPearson Because the media are generally left leaning. I haven't even seen the Telegraph screaming for an election.

@SoveyX Interestingly borax is widely available for laundry use in the USA but banned for such use in Europe as it is a reproductive toxin.

@zarahussain999 Multiple? I think you mean Most.
