David Palk#RejoinEU 💖🇪🇺🕊🌈<p>/3 edited <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SpringStatement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SpringStatement</span></a> Rachel Reeves has failed to “fix the foundations” and has resorted to the kind of “sticking-plaster solutions” to which Keir Starmer said the Tories were addicted. The Independent View<br>Rachel Reeves will soon be back to squeeze us again. It was not a Budget, but it had as much impact as one <br>From the Independent. (so Indy it's behind a f'ing paywall.

David Palk#RejoinEU 💖🇪🇺🕊🌈<p>2/ edited.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/SpringStatement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SpringStatement</span></a> Reeves has begged Trump not to impose the tariffs on British exports to the US.<br>Jonathan Reynolds, the business secretary, urged colleagues to “keep cool heads”, as British officials are in emergency talks with the US to stop the levy. As Reeves said yesterday, “the world has changed' readers react to the spring statement 'performative cruelty’, ‘out of touch’, ‘genuine poverty’.</p>
David Palk#RejoinEU 💖🇪🇺🕊🌈<p>1/ Edited from 'The Independent'<br>The View from Westminster<br>Spring statement overtaken by events already. Within hours of Rachel Reeves’s spring statement yesterday, Donald Trump announced 25 per cent tariffs on all car imports to the US to take effect in a week. –that would negate the chancellor’s announcements at a stroke. Having just restored her £9.9bn headroom against her self-imposed fiscal rules in the forecast for 2029, American tariffs would wipe it out.<br><a href="https://mas.to/tags/UKPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UKPolitics</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SpringStatement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SpringStatement</span></a></p>

Kevy B 🇵🇸<p>I wouldn't trust Rachel Reeves to run a path, never mind the economy. These cuts are going to cause further economic contraction, especially in working class areas.
