A negative view of some positive action at last from govt

We have a government that is finally trying to do something after 14 years of stagnation and inactivity, and all you do is rip it apart. Your arguments are contradictory... you want 'more' than is being announced, and yet you complain about the money that is being raised to finance what is announced... the NI increases and increases to minimum wage. I'm no fan of Starmer and Reeves, but at least they are trying.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
