    This government (or any since 2010) is not extreme right wing. Your message gets lost with your hyperbole.

      I'm not sure how reducing the higher rate of income tax helps stimulate economic growth, given those earning the most spend more on luxuries that they'll buy regardless of the tax rate.

        There is of course no Left-Wing financial establishment, but there is an othadox, liberal establishment that is fairly risk-averse and difficult to navigate. It's the same 'forces' that would have made Corbyns life hell and made Greece's life very difficult under Syriza.

        We don't know what would have happened had things settled down. I do think it probably would have delivered better growth long term and the impacts were probably short term, but who knows, and market movements like we saw always breed panic. Worth noting for example that despite the immediate rise, our bond prices have now risen significantly less than many others. We just don't know if that would have happened in time anyway
        Isn't the definition of liberal anathema to orthodox? Surely conservative is coterminous with orthodoxy.

        What am I missing?

                  FFS James..you are a complete and utter tool. You spout shite like a 14 year old. I'm sad that you are a City fan. My wish for 2023 is that all fans that think like you find another club/forum.

                    The Tory line at the next election, “we might have been in power for fourteen years, but we were unable to get anything done because of the opposition at every turn by the liberals who actually run the country” - not much point voting for them really then is there.
