@JonnyArrow@humphriezz I’m genuinely interested- but how does that work. Surely lower taxes means the government has less to spend. I believe the Reform manifesto is based on scaling back the state ie welfare and this allows lower taxes. Debatable whether immigration costs or generates more money.
@RoyQuinoa@humphriezz I think it’s the government spending that therefore relies on higher taxes. Do feel lower taxes is a key incentive for voting reform.
@JonnyArrow@humphriezz Where is the “higher government spending here” -
- restore Britain not being an option
- to show Labour/Tories that they’re sick of them
- stopping illegal immigration
- stopping net zero
- fix the welfare system
- lower taxes
- have a party that listens to the people
@SteveArgento@j__8371@TimesSport@BillEdgarTimes Yes I agree. I suppose what I meant was that the economist in me distrusts “woolly stats.” How can you measure an “expected goal” - lots of variables. I agree though I like possession as a stat. Very measurable.
@j__8371@SteveArgento@TimesSport@BillEdgarTimes Surely the top four teams are top for a lot of stats. Progressive passes, least fouls, highest wages, tallest goalkeepers. So it doesn’t necessarily mean one stat rules above them all?
@keevs_89 Financial bloating. Poached our best striker even though you were league below by doubling his wages. Slow hand clap for all your success - it must have been so hard to work out how to spend that money.
