@Peston If the PM resigns, or announces this timetable for transfer of power to Burnham, it should trigger a GE. We went through a decade of the Tories playing politics in this way. We voted for stability, not a repeat of the same. Any time a PM changes it should be the nation who decide
@Keir_Starmer I’ve been Labour all my voting life. I’m sorry but I can’t support this now. The country is in financial crisis and you’re now lifting the two child cap. Ridiculous. I’m funding someone else’s life choices. This budget will finish your party
@MartinSLewis A really difficult one to answer. In terms of actual income we are probably better off. We may have settled/lower interest rates but house prices are higher. Which impacts the initial cost of buying property. Running a property is more expensive. There are also now more ‘basics’
@EE Your service is pathetic. I moved my mum over to EE and it’s been nothing but trouble. Already had to have engineers out before. And now, over the course of a few weeks, you changed her home phone number, have now left her in the position of having no home phone,
@EE Yeah I’ve spoken to EE twice today. Once after finally navigating through the auto responses. That’s when I got given the 2-4pm non existent open reach appointment. And the second time when I was told that there was no open reach appointment. I live 50 miles from my mum
I’ve gone through multiple phone calls, been given a wide variety of answers, have been told that an open reach engineer would be out between 2-4pm today, that didn’t happen and my mum has no phone line still. The latest update is that an engineer will be out in the next few days
@MartinSLewis With much of the privatisation that’s happened it wasn’t done properly, and the regulatory bodies that were set up are to protect profits before consumers. If we have a price cap there’s little point in more than one provider!
@MartinSLewis Would you believe I received an email from my bank weeks ago telling me my savings rates were dropping pretty much straight away. Wonder how long they’ll take to filter through this drop
