Rachel Reeves to cut 10,000 civil service jobs in effort to lower government costs

Keir Starmer repeatedly insisted, just last week, that there will be "no return to austerity" under his government
March 20, 2025 at 8:25 AM
👏👏👏
Instead of slashing welfare and disability benefits — forcing more disabled people and children into poverty — the government could introduce a 2% tax on assets over £10 million.
It would raise £24 billion — five times the savings from these cuts.
This is austerity 2.0

Will UK Govt tackle corporate tax abuses?
Public Country-by-Country-Report shows companies shifting profits to places with little/no employees, physical presence.
In 2015 UK govt legislated, but didn't implement. In 2023, law repealed.
EU, Australia requires info.
Why won't UK chase tax abusers?

UK governments are failing to curb corporate tax abuses and leaving people to pay the price
Governments remain obsessed with austerity and choose not to inconvenience the rich or curb tax abuses by corporations.

Love to see it! We need more MPs in open rebellion on this. The only way to make them change course is to speak up.
Marsha is really brave to be one of the first to explicitly come out against cuts to disability benefits. Thank you Marsha ♿✊ #PIP #WelfareCuts

A freeze to disability benefits would make an already terrible situation worse.

What is wrong with them - is the Chancellor really up to the job? 🤫
They claim to want growth yet refuse to tackle growing inequality of wealth which hinders growth - not just attacking the disabled/carers/ill (indefensible) but enabling policies that are #Austerity2 and won’t help any of us

The language of being 'economically inactive' used by Labour belies where the real 'inaction' resides, which is is for Reeves and Starmer to stop their bullshit and tax the fucking wealth hoarders.

Rachel Reeves needs to break her red lines, the stupid constraints she is imposing on her ability to raise money, instead of taking food out of the mouths of the disabled.
