"The pressure is building ahead of the budget, which is exactly 2 weeks away. I also think him holding onto Reeves will end up being his downfall." Budget will be wank and their mp’s furious with manifesto pledges broken. Then the May elections in Scotland and wales, they will be torched. It’s just when, same as it was for May, Truss, Johnson and Sunak | |||

"He’s failed miserably, gangs not smashed, 2.1k arrivals last week. His appointments; Mandelson, Rayner, Siddiq, and the second tax raising budget from faux CV chancellor, all dreadful. Pensioners, farmers, disabled, attacked. They said they wouldn’t raise taxes now we know different. The 1.5 million new homes won’t be built. Popularity low, he is wearing dead man’s shoes. As the unbiased bbc have said it will be the budget or the May elections, the knives are out. " Earlier this year I said he would be gone by Christmas, I will give him until February at the latest Can he also take the lunatic Milliband with him, along with Rachel from customer complaints and the clown Lammy | |||

"Pretty much the same pre budget discussion since the beginning of time isn't it ? Nobody happy, useless government? Always replaced with another useless government and always will be 🤷♂️" Their own goals is the salt in the usual wounds you mention, and the salt is heavy. If I knew tax increases were going to be managed correctly and they would lead to a turnaround in fortunes, I would be an ambassador for the rises. Unfortunately I do not believe this government will manage the treasury or stimulate the economy. | |||

Whether Starmer is liked or not he needs to keep the hard left (as mentioned above) out of the leadership team or we will be in trouble. | |||

I suspect many of the MP's know come the next GE they are likely to loose their seats if things don't improve a lot. | |||

"If the budget, as currently rumoured increases the rate of income tax by 2p, equivalent to a 10% increase on the basic rate, he will have to endorse that and Reeves who he appointed to raise our taxes. That’s a broken manifesto pledge Likely that will be the beginning of the end.

The media will get to re-show all those speeches where Starmer talked about the importance of us being able to trust Labour, and all those clips from a few years ago where he called for a Tory resignation after any sort of failure. | |||

There are softer targets for a cull. My betting is on Lisa Nandy who's now been hung out to dry by 2TK over Kogan's appointment. | |||

Or even worse, Ed Milliband." Who would replace Starmer really is the issue. As useless as he is there isn't a big field of potential successors Rayner may be popular with some of the more left leaning grass roots members but the Brighton flat scandal just won't go away. Burnham is also quite popular and would be more user friendly than some of the others but he's not even an MP. Finding a "Safe" Labour seat for him won't be easy and if that bye election did happen the media circus would have Farage licking his lips. Streeting is doing his best to keep his hands clean and would probably get enough support from the parliamentary party. But he comes across as very lightweight in the charisma stakes and would almost certainly be beaten by Milliband in the final members vote. Which leads us to Milliband himself who I actually think would win if a leadership contest happened today. Firstly it would lead Britain into uncharted territory. We've had plenty of mid parliament leadership (PM) changes over the years, not least with the last government, but never has a defeated former party leader made such a comeback. He really would become the ultimate "back door Prime Minister". Because of the size of the Labour majority he would probably cling on to power for a while but I don't see him going full term. Trying to last 3+ years without his own mandate would be more damaging to Labour than sticking with Starmer. It's stick or twist while in a full on "rock and hard place" for Labour. | |||

"Reeves is rumoured to be increasing income tax by 2p on the basic rate, where could that lead. In the 1975-76 tax year the basic rate of income tax was increased to 35% by the then Labour government. And the top rate of income tax on earned income was 83% (good luck with that Doctors) added to that on the top rate additional “unearned” investment income had 15% more tax taking the rate to 98%. In the financial year to September 2025, the budget deficit was £71.8 billion, while the public sector deficit (borrowing) was £13.4 billion in September 2025. In April to June 2025, the current account deficit widened to £23.8 billion or 3.2% of GDP. That is a lot to find from tax rises, with reduced economic growth reported since these figures were released. Reeves first £40bn tax raising budget target pensioners, farmers and the disabled. That figure is likely about to be dwarfed by the second budget. The current rhetoric from Labour is avoiding engagement with both the public and media on breaking the election manifesto by tax raising policies. That is causing near economic stagnation. Twelve days to find out. " Seems like she's back tracking from the income tax rise now. She keeps popping up with new ideas then when they prove unpopular she ditches them. It's like a glorified game of Whack a Mole. Scary thing is that in less than 2 weeks she has to stand in front of the house and deliver, but it looks like she has absolutely no idea what to do. | |||

Reading rumours of cutting the higher and additional rate thresholds now, killing aspiration. Masters in economics, with likely plagiarised dissertation, and a fake CV. Far better people around for the chancellors job. As we are seeing she’s inadequate and can’t answer any difficult questions. | |||

"Claims of U-turns because today's speculation doesn't match yesterday's speculation might be entertaining for some but it's just noise." It's more than just speculation. She was dropping some pretty broad hints earlier in the week that an income tax rise would happen, and now she's saying the opposite. But I agree that we shouldn't criticise her for things that she hasn't done yet. Let's wait till the budget is actually revealed, and then lay into her. | |||

She has no idea what to do so she's dropping hints left right and centre to gauge the reaction. Many chancellors have done if before but I've never seen it to this extent. It's almost a new hint every day. Like I said above. It's like Whack a Mole. I suppose she could surprise us all and cut welfare spending, cancel foreign aid and knock 5p off income tax.

Add nato spend pledge, 300,000 council houses, another nhs dr’s pay rise, and plugging the tax gap from yesterdays reduced gdp figures. | |||

It's almost a new hint every day. Like I said above. It's like Whack a Mole. I suppose she could surprise us all and cut welfare spending, cancel foreign aid and knock 5p off income tax. I'll leave it at that for now. Need to write my letter to Santa. £71bn deficit is equivalent to £2629 per household. Add nato spend pledge, 300,000 council houses, another nhs dr’s pay rise, and plugging the tax gap from yesterdays reduced gdp figures. " Add to that a full public sector pay round that's on the doorstep. The unions are in a hostile mood. Labour government or not, it isn't going to be pretty. And still the boats keep coming to shovel a few quid more into her black hole. | |||

"More bad news The UK economy sees slower than expected growth of 0.1% in the three months to September, the final figures before the Budget show In the month of September, the UK economy shrank by 0.1% - that's when UK car production hit a 70-year low The institute chartered surveyors reporting stagnant £1M+ property market in fear of tax rises, and 24% fall in sales agreed. It seems the shutdown at JLR had a big effect but even without that the figures were poor. Growing the economy was one of labours key pledges. Hopefully this is the low point and better to come Are you mad, do you actually believe their spin and 🐂💩💩 Coming from a fartage fan that's rich 😂😂🤞" name calling ud expect better from someone your age | |||

"If he was the best they had to offer it doesn’t say much for the rest, if he goes it will only be another incompetent in his place. Wes Streeting seems a much more likeable proposition, but non of them will survive whilst they continue to take from those who work, to fund the illegal invasion and the work shy " Wes Steeting reminds me of someone who has his mum put clean underpants and socks out on his bed each morning. Is he man who you would want leading a battle from the front or would he burst into tears and ask for his mummy at the first twinge of pain. Type of face I'd love to slap. | |||

"there are over 400 labour MPs surely one of them is capable of doing the top job? " Don't hold your breath. From what I've seen I couldn't find one I'd trust to run a Blackpool rock stall. | |||

"I think many on the right here assume that Farage will soon be PM. I'm curious as to who you think will be in his cabinet. Who do you think will be his chancellor of the exchequer and the secretaries of state for the home office, health, defence, education. transport, justice, foreign affairs, energy, housing, business, science and technology etc? " Do you think his supporters would be able to think that far ahead ? | |||

"Do you think his supporters would be able to think that far ahead ?" Some of them seem to think there'll be a miraculous vote of no confidence and a general election will be called quite soon. So perhaps they should be thinking about this. Even if Labour serve the full term, which is the most likely outcome. then Reform supporters still need to be putting some thought into who will do these jobs. They don't seem to have thought things through. | |||

I am by no means close to Reform, but it is likely that for example the DTI will be headed up by Anthony Bamford, and that idea had been openly floated by Zia Yusuf. I also very much doubt that Reform would want an early election. They aren't ready. Next May's local elections offer them the chance to have elected and then blood potential ministers ahead of a GE that is still 3 years away. Should Ant Middleton win the London mayoral election (which I doubt he will), then he'd be a prime candidate for Defence Secretary. After all, who'd have thought that a failed junior bank complaints handler would make a great Chancellor? | |||

Yes probably qualifies as strong speculation especially as both the chancellor and PM refused to rule out an income tax rise when questioned on it several times. Surely if they were not strongly considering it they could have simply ruled it out when asked. Of course it's not long since the new deputy PM has taken up her role and she went public quickly to say she was against breaking the manifesto pledge not to raise income tax. Not long after the chancellor backtracks | |||

She’s incompetent and unprofessional - she cries at work and plays the victim when held to account. She accepted over £300,000 of freebies and broke the law by lying over a rental license gifting her £6K pcm in rental revenue | |||

Most people exaggerates their CV a bit. It's almost standard practice. But although I don't like her at all, she does have a brain. It's not routine for someone who goes to a comprehensive school to get four grade As at A-level in mathematics, further mathematics, economics and politics and to be the Britsh under 14's girls champion at chess. I'm not a Labour supporter but some of the attacks on this government seem to lack perspective - as if Starmer is some kind of communist when in reality he is pretty much like John Major. | |||

" There you go again, parroting the now debunked lie that Reeves was the UK U14 chess champion. False. She came 26th. You'll be telling us next that she was a BoE economist. As for dissing Reform's lack of likely Cabinet appointees, you'll struggle to find one of them in Labour who has ever peformed a meaningful day's work in the private sector. | |||

Are you the poster who claimed that the number of unemployment benefit claiments went up by 64,600 when they actually went down by 64,600? And the one who claimed that 10 year gilt yields were 5.21%? | |||

"My guess would be... 30p Lee as Chancellor of the Exchequer. Sarah Pochin as Home Secretary. Richard Tice as Foreign Secretary as he splits his time between Skegness and Dubai. Danny Kruger as Secretary of State for Defence. Then we've run out of MPs so Farage would have to appoint people to the House of Lords to fill the other roles.
