This seems great. Levy on the profits of energy firms, lower highest tax threshold. Let them implement. They’ll somewhat fix the finances and start getting hated even more for it. Then labour can come in and slash these cuts.
Austerity 2: Electric Boogaloo a.k.a. let’s not learn from our mistakes after the last economic crisis
I wonder what the right wing plan is for when they’ve run out of public assets to sell?
And to think we could have had chaos with Ed Miliband instead!
“Oh no! We have a problem. Better make life harder for the poor.”
Seriously they only have 1 solution for everything.
Honestly what is left to cut? Are workhouses on the way back?
If only he had some way of collecting all those uncollected taxes… and could cut all those fossil fuel subsidies… and could stop spending billions on vanity projects… *alas* that’s all impossible. So it is cap in hand to the hordes on minimum wage to make *them* suffer.
But this government will still fund money to send to other countries
Independent forecasts are understood to have identified a gap of around £55bn in the public finances.

Which is about the cost of the furlough scheme.
