UK News Shows must point this out. On the growth impact of the budget the Chancellor is regularly citing OBR estimate of a 1.4% boost to GDP. But OBR says that’s in 50 years! Meanwhile Brexit reduces the UK’s potential GDP by 4% - largest factor by far stopping economic growth!

📺 | Rachel Reeves Has Dug a £92 Billion Hole in the Public Finances 🕳️ She says she “fixed the foundations” - the numbers tell a different story. 📊 Before the election, the OBR forecast £102.6 billion in borrowing from Aug 2024 – Sep 2025. 💰 The reality? £194.4 billion. That’s £92 billion more. This isn’t fixing the foundations — it’s digging deeper.

LABOUR - so what are we calling this? Misinformation or Disinformation? Here’s Rachel Reeves saying she had to put up taxes by £48 billion because of the £22 billion black hole the Tories even hid from the OBR… … except the OBR says there wasn’t a £22 billion black hole.

Rachel Reeves just became the first Chancellor in history to deny OBR scrutiny of a Spending Review. If the Chancellor doesn’t have confidence in her numbers, why should we have confidence in her? 👇

Rachel Reeves’ budget is a disaster for schools. There will be a 1.7% cut to school per pupil funding, according to the OBR. This is a slap in the face for schools & will mean more teachers’ jobs on the line.
