This to me seems like he’s just trying to help out his buddies before he loses the next general election.
The British womb closed shop 40 years ago when they saw ratchet gypping kids by stuffing their icecream full of air and then invented neoliberalism. There will be no growth and no relief from inflation because the reinforcements are not coming until the zoomers start fucking … IF they start fucking

Well then I hope you like inflation
Yeah those two things are definitely mutually exclusive and the only two options
Tax cuts for the rich, rugged individualism for the poor? The US is not a model to look up to here.
Neoliberalism isn’t a product of American influence, it’s a book of pre-made lies that every wealthy person in every wealthy country has agreed to read from.
They know it doesn’t work but they get richer every time it fails to deliver on its promises so it’s taught at the most exclusive, expensive schools the world over.
They know they are doomed in the next election so they might as well shift some money to the ultra-rich while they still can.
Also salt the earth for next govt…if they slash the income when the next party that they paint as fiscally poor can’t balance a budget without tax increases they can say told you so, even though sunak have wrecked it
Sell off all the HS2 land for a loss maybe?
May as well openly shift some money to the ultra-rich.
This is an alcoholic declaring “fuck it, I’m going to drink the whole bottle” – they were always going to, they’re just dropping the facade.
The rich are leveling up again
If straw clutching was an Olympic event, he’d be in with a chance of the gold there.
Just over a year until he has to call an election. A year more of these arseholes. The just lost a seat they’d had for 90 years. It’s going to be a massacre and I can’t wait.
Is it too late to bring back the lettuce?
It’s a classic.
At first I was surprised this wasn’t an Onion article, and then I wasn’t.
Why tax cuts? How would that help anything?
it helps the portfolios of the wealthy, what else is there to consider?
What can this portfolio do?
Can it solve the housing problem?
Can it help fight climate change?
Can it feed the people?
Can it decrease discrimination?
Can it do anything besides looking nice?
And can’t even do the last one, it’ll just piss people off, but they don’t care at this point.
They’re not worried about any of that. They know we’re fucked. They know millions will die, be displaced, starve. They only care to protect themselves and set themselves up to be kings of the future hellscspe. The end
It’s just capitalism working as intended.
Sounds like he just wants to spite the poors. He’s rich, right? Yep, my opinion checks out.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Rishi Sunak is considering a tax cut for the 5 million highest earners and reducing stamp duty in an attempt to ease the pressure on his leadership after two historic byelection defeats, it has been reported.
The Conservatives may raise the 40% income tax threshold after Labour’s victory in Mid Bedfordshire, Nadine Dorries’ former seat.
The Daily Telegraph reported that surveys have been carried out by Downing Street to ascertain which tax reduction could give the party the biggest political pre-election boost with the 2024 spring budget considered the earliest it could be announced.
The Conservatives are also planning to reduce stamp duty for their general election manifesto next year if the economy has strengthened, the Times reported.
A senior Tory told the Times that reducing stamp duty would be “aspirational” and improve the economy in addition to attracting middle-class voters who had left the party.
Official figures showed that public sector net borrowing was £14.3bn last month, lower than the £20.5bn that had been forecast by the Office for Budget Responsibility.
