"

The national debt is £2.6trn, add PFI liabilities and it’s over £3trn.

£434bn in 1997, £878 bn by 2010 and now where we are.

I do not see any possible alternative but to increase the debt. Which is reeves plan by changing the fiscal rules.

Mine the Eastern beaches to wipe out any migrants that make it to our shore.

Charge the captains of ships and boats who rescue migrants and land them in the UK £5,000 per migrant.

Implement Tax Laws that tax any monies leaving the UK. Reduce Tax on UK businesses.

Tax social media companies.

Raise death duties to 60%. People should earn their own money not inherit it.

Erect a plethora of speed cameras at thousands of locations where there has never been an accident and say it is a safety measure. [Hang on! They have already done that.]

Bring back hanging and save the cost of housing criminals and building new prisons.

Force the education system to teach political science so that should we ever have another referendum the voters will have at least some idea what they are doing and we can avoid another Brexit.

"Slow down immigration it doesn’t boost the economy it’s a huge drain "

Immigration costs £5bn odd a year.

Obesity, smoking, drug abuse and alcoholism costs the nhs £50bn every year

National debt interest is £9bn a month

£10bn foreign aid (inc migrants) a lot of it to corrupt African states who support Putins war

A reported £30-40bn tax gap; Starbucks, Amazon et all offshoring profits to avoid tax

2.4 million council houses and flats sold off at one time discounts on right to buy, which with increased property values has cost the country £600bn. Add £2bn a year housing homeless because of this. Repurchase all these at original sale prices.

£219million a year spent on 5000 empty ‘buffer’ hotel rooms for small boat crossings

So now we are in the range £4.5trn.

£166,000 per household, or £67,000 per person. Plus interest.

Firstly I would have to say if you have no ideas why are you fit to run the country. Secondly reverse the additional tax burdens placed on businesses so that they are able to invest, grow and employ which results in economic growth.

Do you think so,

the post it quite clearer says they would get 2k that's it.

Why is the UK now so obsessed with migrants coming in. Where do people think the Italians in the 1940 came from, the large Pakistani communities that ran the corner shops come from, and under the EU we dont realy know how meany came to the UK. The UK birth rate is falling so people will be needed.

My point is about letting them in and getting them working to pay in to the system ASAP. NO STATE HOUSING OR BENIFITS

Directly? 15 in one business, 12 in another, 6 in a third but with over 300 sub-contractors, 2 in another but not employees we draw only dividends. We don't mind paying our taxes, but it's becoming ridiculous: business rates, employer's NI, corporation tax,insurance tax on our insurance premia. We provide free BUPA for all employees after a year with us. 37 hour week, half day Friday. But we have choices and if our major market becomes the US, then a 15% corporation tax rate there and no IHT it simply cannot be ignored any longer.

I agree. The obsession with growth is counter-productive and fundamentally damaging because it is not sustainable in the long term. It's akin to over-fishing a lake. As the pool of customers dwindles, ever increasing amounts of effort are needed to chase the few remaining stragglers. That's actually quite wasteful.

Breaking even is sensible and stable.

Growth could be boosted if Starmer and his party starts being trustworthy.As predicted they immediately came up with the " things are worse than we though" line to raise taxes which was their plan all along. They cannot be trusted on taxes and so will stifle growth which only happens if companies and non corporate businesses feel comfortable with borrowing money to invest in the business or raising new capital and employing more staff etc . They cannot be trusted on pensions and persist with this idea that anyone who has worked hard to create an above average income is " rich" and needs to pay more tax .Similarly anyone who is trying to plan for life beyond retirement age . They are dooming themselves to fail the country .

If you want long term growth then you need to pivot everything around smaller companies rather than the current focus on larger organisations.

Larger companies make far more money (at the moment) but they lack growth and innovation opportunities. Future profits will come from the current startups - growth and innovation are _much_ easier in smaller companies.

Current treaury thinking is completely focussed on large companies and London. Make it easy to support and run startups and make sure you are doing it anywhere but London - London can look after itself at the moment and you need to seed the rest of the country.

My 2 pennies:

Redirect Overseas Spending to Domestic Projects:

Halt non essential foreign aid, reallocate funds to UK infrastructure, education, healthcare, and local initiatives. Consider reinstating aid after a minimum of 5 years of consistent economic growth.

Open Free Movement for EU Citizens (Unilateral Policy):

Allow EU citizens to work and live in the UK to address skill shortages, particularly in sectors like healthcare, hospitality, and construction. Reciprocity could be negotiated later.

Remove Compliance to Refugee Convention and Draft a UK Specific Framework:

Develop a modern asylum system to provide protection for genuine refugees while deterring and removing individuals entering the country illegally.

Tax Incentives for Big Tech and Pharmaceutical:

Leverage targeted tax breaks, encouraging investment and innovation in high growth industries. Make the UK a competitive global hub, and an attractive place to invest in, this would actually be a Brexit benefit.

Improving Manufacturing Output:

Creation and investment into UK manufacturing, using Free Port model for domestic manufacturing.

Create special economic zones within the UK where startups and small manufacturers benefit from flexible tax incentives, regulatory support, and infrastructure investment.

Drive the focus on areas with strong potential for growth, such as areas with existing industrial capabilities or high unemployment.

Provide support by reducing business rates, reducing corporate taxes, and

offer grants or low interest loans for start ups to cover initial costs and support innovation.

Those would be my suggestions.

Reducing the civil service is too easy.. or should that be vague an answer.. since it’s basically all encompassing .. so if you are going to say that put your head on the block and say which parts…

Range from passport office to dvla to immigration to police to jail workers… welfare, pensions,

Keep telling the stories. Keep people informed and bring them with you.

We are having to put up taxes to pay for the damage caused by previous governments. They sold off our natural resources to private companies and told you the market would sort it. Then when the market went out of control theyhad to give you money to pay for your energy bills. Now they knew it was not going to be their problem and so have left it to us to have to pay it down and the interest from tax rises. We have done it through wealth land owners, private schools and richer pensioners who still get more this year than last.

Things will be difficult, but the long term looks good, we have 5 years to start to clean up the mess, we won't lie to you and say there is money when there is not, or borrow money for pet projects or spend £37 billion quid on test and trace to tell you not to go outside if you had a highly contagious disease.

People will argue in bad faith against this and good luck to them, as by the end of the parliament your life will be better than it is now.

"Try to be more honest with the public.

Explain the difficulties faced and try to elicit support from public.

Ditch the dead wood - Reeves, Lammy & Rayner to start with.

Remember charity begins at home - spend monies here not supporting dead losses overseas (Ukraine included)

Beggars belief fake CV Reeves is chancellor while Labour have an MP with PhD in economic development Miatta Farnbulleh - reeves could not tie her shoe laces "

You don't do sensible stuff like that in politics!

Here on the IOM until a recent resignation, we had an accountant running the health service, and a qualified doctor running the treasury. Why? So the chief minister keeps his job as his most likely competitors don't make a huge success of their departments for when the next election comes around. Clever selfish logic by those in power.

Won't be long now. Everyone's waiting for the 20th when multiple cases come to court that will find Starmer out big time. They're trying to bury the news under Trumps inauguration date to lessen the impact. Jess Phillips refusing to launch an official enquiry into the Muslim abuse cases & the mass resignation today of Labour's Broxstowe Council is the tip of the iceberg. They're going under fast.
