      Hunt talking now:
      • He's agreed with the speaker he can make this announcement to lead to stability in the markets.
      • All tax measures being reversed that haven't been started. So stamp duty cut and reversal on health and social care levy will go ahead as the legislation has been started.
      • Basic rate cut will remain at 20% indefinitely.
      • Measures will raise £32B per year
      • Energy price cap will be reviewed from April 2023 but will go ahead this winter.
      • There will be spending cuts in government departments (Austerity 2.0)

          You realise that the partition of Ireland took place over 100 years ago, so the Tories aren't running it, focus on the UK's current clownfest and think back as to why we've had them ruining the country for so long.
          I was referring to...
          The first referendum on the Treaty of Lisbon held on 12 June 2008 was rejected by the Irish electorate, by a margin of 53.4% to 46.6%, with a turnout of 53%.[5]

          The second referendum on the Treaty of Lisbon held on 2 October 2009 and the proposal was approved by 67.1% to 32.9%, with a turnout of 59%.[6]


          Considering Ireland has never been a united country other than under English rule your use of the word "partition" is erroneous - learn some history.

              I thought they were reviewing that quarterly, does that mean no rises until next year (by which time winter will be mostly over)?

                Quite so - although they had to get to the final 2 by getting MPs on board - but when the leadership and the membership are at odds things aren't going to go well.

                    "We will continue with the abolition of health and social care levy and the stamp duty change, off payroll working reforms, the new VAT-free shopping scheme for non-UK visitors and the freeze on alcohol duty rates."

                    So does this mean they will continue with rolling back the IR35 'reforms' or continue with implementing them?

                      I stand by what I said. Hunt is the destroyer of the NHS.
                      You can keep saying it, it's still foolish
