There's an awful lot of powerful people taking over powerful positions.

Things are moving fast.

Fasten your seat-belts, especially if you are only genetically ordinary.

I don’t consider myself rich but I hope he raises the higher income tax rate from £50,000 to £80,000.

Of course you do, you never seem to be able to see beyond the tip of your wallet. Of course you will be visibly better off by 10's or even 100's of pounds and that is what matters to you. Shame you fail to notice your growing vehicle maintenance bills or the fact that it is dying so much quicker. But I am sure you will blame that on shoddy foreign workmanship rather than on the state of our roads, while complaining like mad that your local government are not fixing the potholes.

Powerful people? They might hold power but they're just a collection of useful idiots and drones who will obey Boris blindly.

The likes of Raab, Williamson and Patel are not bright or competent people.

What makes you think my vehicle maintenance bills are increasing? I change my car every 2 yrs so I don’t notice it “dying so much quicker”. I’m not sure where my car is manufactured but I think the workmanship is first class. Thankfully the roads are in pretty good condition in my area so I haven’t had to complain like mad to my local authority for not fixing the potholes.

The title of this thread should continue.

There's an awful lot of powerful....... companies about to get a whole lot richer.

People are going to be getting tax breaks, corporations will be getting tax cuts, there will be large scale rail, broadband and construction spending (so they say), so what happens when companies get boosts from government contracts or people with more money in their pockets - their non UK accounts will swell.

I wonder if Boris's plan is Tump-like. Distract with one hand whilst pushing what he wants through with the other. The jester has court - Mogg is pulling the strings.

Most of Trump's tax cuts went on share buy-backs to artificially increase stock market valuations.

I'm surprised they are legal.

Minimal investment in the future of company and in staff pay.

The government has sucked in maximum levels of vermin -it's difficult to get a more loathsome lot, many of whom should be barred from holding public office. Fear for your country.

It's a cynical view but as Johnson was supposed to reveal his inner politician ... what was seen yesterday was a total pantomime. His idea on an Australian style points based immigration system makes me wonder what Priti is going to be championing whilst all this spending is happening..?

His claims about focusing on climate change are at best hopeful.

Pretty much the whole cabinet have consistently voted against bills to improve the UK's efforts.

It was a fop to his girlfriend, fair play to her she is a bit of an environmentalist but tend to agree the tories have been less than keen on it..

Your statement said "pretty much most of the cabinet constantly voted against bills" now im assuming you have done a bit of research on this and not just googling a bit on the pm who is not in the cabinet.So your starter for 10 is irreverent.Which mps and which green bills did they vote against?

Their voting records are all on that site. You are welcome to do the search yourself, it's not hard.

You stated interest, I showed you were the information is.

I'm not going to extract it into a spreadsheet for you. It doesn't take long to build the picture...

Either way I'm still affected, but don't mind paying all that tax to feed the system. Wouldn't complain if the threshold was dropped though
