The chancellor admitted Britons are anxious about losing their jobs and rising unemployment, with the UK economy having shrunk 25% in just two months - the same amount it grew in the previous 18 years.But Mr Sunak told MPs:"We're not just going to accept this. People need to know we will do all we can to give everyone the opportunity of good and secure work.Advertisement

After announcing what he dubbed a"plan for jobs", Mr Sunak told the Commons:"We will not be defined by this crisis, but by our response to it. He told MPs:"The average stamp duty bill will fall by £4,500. And nearly nine out of 10 people buying a main home this year, will pay no stamp duty at all." For the next six months, from 15 July to 12 January, Mr Sunak will cut VAT from 20% to 5% on food from restaurants, cafes and pubs, as well as accommodation in hotels, B&Bs, campsites and caravan sites, and attractions such as cinemas, theme parks and zoos.

Keir_Starmer Old Bendzeknee still slithering and dithering.....🤔

UKLabour Keir_Starmer Whatever you say captain 🙄

UKLabour Keir_Starmer RishiSunak is utterly out of his depth. Its like watching a 6th Form Prefect in action. He is driver of impending UK economic car crash. Wrong decisions of billions spent on wrong sectors, ignored millions of SMBs. Clueless and Conservatives liability.

UKLabour Keir_Starmer It's NEVER enough for the Labour Party.

AnnelieseDodds Keir_Starmer Where is the right place Kier? Oh wait it's opposite of where the government funds sectors isn't it?

Keir_Starmer The Opposition Party, oppose everything. Captain Hindsight has spoken . . . . . again

Keir_Starmer Ffs bore off

Keir_Starmer Come on Captain Hindsight, where are the right places ?

Keir_Starmer

Keir_Starmer Starmer is really irrelevant, his recent use of hindsight was the last straw for me. Petty point scoring and jumping on dodgy bandwagons taking the knee etc. have shown terrible misreading of the silent majority’s common sense view of events. Sixth form politics killed Labour.

Keir_Starmer He promised to not play divisive political gamesmanship! But even during a pandemic they just can’t help themselves !

Keir_Starmer In my opinion a fair translation of this would be “we will pretend to support the Gov & virtue signal in areas we want, but in reality we will undermine everything they do, no matter how much it may of been helping the UK get back on its feet” Starmer oozes a slime agenda

Keir_Starmer Show us your recovery plans then Captain hindsight 🙄

Keir_Starmer How about you look at the country you are currently in charge of... that’s Wales and sort the shit out here first
