What £2bn was that? The government have mismanaged our money so much it's difficult to keep track, i know about the £11bn Rishi and the millions handed out to friends of Conservative MPs in dodgy PPE contracts but I'm not sure where that £2bn went.

Also with the broken record? After everything that's happened in the last week, heck in the last 24hrs our central bank had to step in to savetrillions worth of our pensions, it's still but, but, Labour.

The £2bn is the 'cost' of the 45% tax rate change which all this is ultimately about.

So Labour want to be in government but their potential policies (ore lack of) are not open for debate? I wonder why..

Well if that was the only give away you'd have a point, but it wasn't so you don't. :p

I don't think Truss has realised the difference between policy decisions on the campaign trial and when actually in government. I would say amazing for someone who's been in government for about a decade but wasn't she accused of being one of the laziest ministers during the party leadership contest by another Tory ex-minister (think an old boss?)

Well no - the point is they dont have a plan so they are criticising the govt for not releasing a plan whilst saying they would keep most of the cuts that are popular on Twitter.. pathetic... cake and eat it, as your EU overlords used to say.. lol

I mean they do have a plan. This is just your brainless parroting of your programming again.

Refreshing not to see the usual u turn after media hysteria lol - ultimately over £2bn, ridiculous..

So Labour are saying they wouldn't undo the cuts apart from reverting the 40% rate to 45% over £150k so what's their plan for funding this?

Also Labour saying they would reinstate the 45% rate and then use this 'new' money to pay for whatever policy goes down best on Twitter is just another reminder as to why they are not to be taken seriously..

Absolutely m9, once those lefties at Bloomberg and JP Morgan and all those idiots in the markets realise that Truss is basically the new messiah with her very Conservative billions in uncosted borrowing, they just haven't seen it yet, everything will be reet.
 
What tories needed to do was properly target the energy support to reduce the debt required.

At this rate a recession is inevitable. Previously people were gonna spend all spare cash on energy. Now it will be mortgages and rent - which will actually cost a load more!

So you dont think Labour have a chance of being elected so what they say can be safely ignored own this situation?

The GE is in 2024, this is happening right now; so going herp derp Labour is deflecting from what is actually happening and is ignoring the consequences oh pre school level economic policy - 18 months before a GE.
