Lads, ita massive opportunity to re-energise our politics!

I think itis great that the voting age will be reduced to 16, in time for the next election!

Labour data supports August rate cut bets.

Happy days!

Labour in power are doing wonders for the share price!!!

“Our forecast preference had been for EUR/GBP to grind towards 0.88 over the coming quarters. (1.1365 for GBP/EUR)

“That could come a lot sooner if the labour market weakens.”

"there are significant underlying concerns surrounding the UK fiscal outlook, but the bank considers that monetary policy has been the key driver for recent losses."

Not looking too great for the UK economy...

Bloomers stoking fears of the unknown, which fits in very well with the Reforn UK/Farage mantra.

Do you have a brain bloomers?

Gives a breakdown by sector, of inflation rises.

The ONS says the rise was driven by motor fuel and food costs, with food price inflation increasing for the third month in a row

This is catastrophic and will hit every person in the UK.

How many countries is Israel bombing now?

Don't take any heed of GateBoy, as he's the ultimate buffoon! Just imagine voting for Brexit and the desperately scrambling after an Irish passport, so he can go to live in Spain and ponce off the state especially ashe all against migrants coming to the UK and doing exactly what he plans to do in Spain. GateBoy is the very embodiment of hypocrisy!

Data published for the first time and inJune, nearly eight million people received universal credit, 83.6% of whom were British and Irish nationals.

More than a million claimants were born overseas, including around 700,000 EU citizens who arrived in the UK before Brexit and have the right to live and work in the UK.

Around 1.5% of claimants were refugees and 0.7% had arrived in the UK via safe routes such as those for Ukrainians and Afghans.

More than 75,000 claimants who are in the UK temporarily and would typically not be able to receive benefits are also claiming UC.

The Department for Work and Pensions has said most foreign nationals can claim only after five years residency, but there are exceptions such as for victims of modern slavery..

According to the most recent figures for May 2025, around half of EU citizens claiming UC are in employment, compared to a fifth of refugees.

A Downing Street spokesperson said the prime minister wanted to see the number of unemployed foreign nationals claiming benefits to go down and insisted the government was "toughening up the system" by doubling the time a migrant has to wait before qualifying for permanent - or settled - status in the UK.

Yes, yes, open the floodgates!!!

We need to welcome those Afgan and Iraqi native indigenous folks, who backed our forces, with open arms to tbe UK! Five-star hotels, fast track on benefits, housing, medical care, schools, free university education for themselves and their extended families.

He has form now, for backing down when it comes to tariffs, so I expect his bluff will be called repeatedly!

Those guys were barking up the wrong tree, when the went to work in sycamore gap and have ended up with 4 years of porridge.

Let's hope they have fun in the showers...

Starmer is fixing the sloppy tory implementation of brexit.

Lads, we have to agree that Sir Keir is doing a great job in some respects and trump is very wise in some respects.

Long-term income play, than Barclays.

The tories sold off the water companies, so blame them for the high bills!

Brazil signs 20 year trade pact with China.

Trumps tariffs strategy backfiring again on the US.

Angela Rayner got a size 9, up where the sun don't shine, from UNITE.

The real problem is that Keir and Angela both supported the genocide by Israel in Gaza.
