@justdavenow89@PolitlcsUK That's not what he's commenting on though, it's the pressure from public opinion. There are more for it than against currently.
@Juve38Wa98021@PolitlcsUK It's a redistribution of current tax receipts, no new money is needed. The mayor's will raise funds directly from taxation, they get what they get.
@chairmanMAO_92@KEdge23@PolitlcsUK Fiscal devolution wasn't specifically mentioned, however Reeves has already set out plans to do exactly this within the treasury anyway. It's not really a new direction or policy. I'm all for it, goes hand in hand with the manifesto pledges.
@Elon_Era_ai@alojoh@teslayoda Musk is a billionaire and makes money by pumping his stock at the expense of his fellow shareholders and robbing all of our pensions with a dodgy IPO. Not to mention he ruined Twitter with bots.
@Polymarket Completely justified as well. Nukes are about dealing with existential threats, the US has proved it is a threat. Doesn't matter that you hate them, the narrative was gifted to them by Trump.
@MDyeSocial@thomson_xyz@DanNeidle@HenryPryor NYC can not tax the income of a wealthy individual that commutes in from another state, but they can on their 2nd homes. UK doesn't have an issue anywhere near as big as they do.
@PolitlcsUK Always remember they aren't really your ally, they inherited a relationship from 2 world wars. It wasn't like that before, and it isn't like that for the younger generations coming through now. They are less British culturally than ever before.
@SaulStaniforth Bet you there's more millionaires thinking they can just leave instead. The idea is daft because the majority would change their behaviour and that Β£24bn in tax drains away quickly, as does the investment and jobs they create. They just need to pay fair tax without evasion.
@danak2@TharriesYT He certainly wouldn't be fluffing his WASPI or prisoner release lines and getting away with it. Starmer had his house petrol bombed ffs
