@wallaceme Fall in [a] line.

Very proud of my mum, who has won re-election for the second time as an independent councillor in North Tyneside. No party machine, just really hard work on behalf of her residents year-round - as seen in the fact that her vote and % share went up despite more parties standing.

🇬🇧 Energy bills did not used to be cripplingly high. Houses did not used to be this expensive. Childcare used to be more financially manageable.

So when did life in Britain become so unaffordable?

Good piece by @Tim_Wallace on how government has been driving up Britain's prices (quoting me on housing) https://t.co/doneOs5RLt

@ThemanfromK Good morning - You are right, they are certainly not in Nato. The story says: "By contrast, Poland – which neighbours Ukraine and Russia’s ally Belarus – has climbed Nato’s rankings." https://t.co/w0KE7FjQhz

[Ben Riley-Smith @benrileysmith]

Why is the electorate so boiling with rage at the political class? This line from @szupingc and @Tim_Wallace's piece on the new economic forecasts feels like a key reason.

"By the end of this decade, workers’ real-terms hourly pay – adjusted for inflation – will still be 0.5% below its 2009-10 level. That’s more than two lost decades of growth."

💸 "Even a bond market-friendly Budget may not be enough to save the Chancellor"

Could Rachel Reeves' budget be her last? The Chancellor’s challenge is to satisfy both the bond market and Labour backbenchers

I’d prescribe a strong scotch after reading this. I’d not heard before the idea that we are not so much an emerging economy as a submerging one..

[Jagjit S. Chadha @jagjit_chadha]

There is a rather wretched feeling about the UK economy. Good to chat with @szupingc and @Tim_Wallace. But you may need a strong coffee before reading the piece.

We desperately need a plan...please.

@b0bbybux I don't accept it! But it could be a way for a desperate Government to argue the toss. I hoped I'd made that clear by saying the manifesto has already slipped on NICs, the hunt is on for more loopholes, the freeze in rates is a stealth tax, etc

The govt actually have commissioned and funded six new prisons, but guess what?

Planning appeals and badgers have prevented us actually building them. We have legalised crime to avoid upsetting NIMBYs.
