sajidjavid And now the whole country will be fu**ed instead by Tories. Well you get what you vote for eh? Rich tories and foodbanks with no nhs to catch the fallout

sajidjavid Great news that they won’t now get the chance to destroy your pension funds !

sajidjavid Yawn... too predictable now

sajidjavid Liar

Propaganda!

sajidjavid Any comment on the £1.8tn national debt and how we fund all the ‘new’ nurses and police officers when IR35 LoanCharge shuts down millions of freelancers and freelancing supporting firms, like accountants etc? Will debt increase as VAT, corp tax, NI & income tax is lost? GE2109

You just cannot stop spreading fake news. Your paper is a total disgrace and you should be ashamed. I hope it will not be long before your paper is gone out of business. You make us all so sick.

And the Hard Brexit you guys tout? 🤔

A curiously precise number. That is usually a sign someone is talking complete bollocks, but wants to sound authoritative. ToryLies BrexitLies

Scaremongering again.

You're lying.

The market does not like brexit. Why would they rally for Johnson? More lies.

Has anyone ever counted the number of times The Telegraph has used the words 'Project Fear' since 2016?

Right-wing Newspaper. In the last election. It backed Incompetent Theresa May 😁

DavidJoBrexit That's around £30 per squirrel in Steve Coogans yfronts according to Diane Abbott.

Because they bet on Brexit?

sajidjavid Can’t imagine why this doesn’t worry the youth - too much ‘bank of mum and dad’ I’m guessing.

sajidjavid You’re worried, aren’t you.

sajidjavid Fair and balanced, nice. Keep it up!!! Or just STOP printing.

sajidjavid peddling lies again!!

Right on cue with the scaremongering. Shame on you.

DavidJoBrexit FTSE has risen 20% in 10 years of Tory zombie economics & Brexit. Dow Jones has risen 270% in the same 10 year period. Pension schemes by law have to invest in UK stocks & shares to manage risk. I KNOW WHO HAS FUCKED UP PEOPLES PENSIONS ... THE TORIES.

And that's before their proposed theft of 10% of companies to hand out to the workers. Labour will decimate our economy.

The only shares I'm Interested in, are the more equal shares we'll all get under a government that cares for ALL people..

So only from thw rich

Pants on 🔥

Project fear mk2

ReshamKotecha Interesting maths and insight, where did you park the Delorean

On the first day the big companies sell then these big companies buy out cheap and make a killing. That’s how billionaires make billions and rip off Britons- Tory policy’s

GuyCGeorge

Labour fucked fantasy people.

Hahaha...panic time !

Pluck number out of sky. Report as fact. Make completely unsubstantiated claim re pensions. Report as fact. Desperate stuff

Message received!

Skiplols 'Calamity Corbyn'....... What could possibly go wrong NeverCorbyn GE2019 👇

Nothing changes with right wing propagandist media.

ProjectFear

NadineDorries Would be a dreadful result Keep Corbyn Out, Keep Corbyn Out, Keep Corbyn Out !!!!

Carter7Raymond You forgot to mention it would also start the zombie apocalypse.

Having been a financial adviser for 35 years it is true that stock markets have never liked a Labour govt. between 97 and 2010 the FTSE rose by an average of 2% a year. With Tory govts the figure has been closer to double figures each time.

Let’s hope the first organisation being shut under a Corbyn government is Job Centre Plus.

I have told my client from many years ago that pension is a high risk investment in this country.

Will you please stop publishing utter lies. You are supposed to be a NEWSpaper, a guardian of the truth. You should be holding the perpetrators of lies to account, not creating them. What happened to you?!!

JohnJig If you win do the loser get a free spin like you did?

Brexit will have the same effect. Cancelling it will boost share prices.

FakeNews

NadineDorries Selfish again Nadine

And how big is the hit from Brexit?

And so will the brexit that you wankers want. What a choice

A Tory victory would serve yourselves well. And ensure the country is sold out to the US.

Frightening Corbyn can not be elected = UK bankruptcy

That's ok. I've got sod all pension left anyway after the last time it was raided but my son got £250 child trust fund so swings and roundabouts, eh?

anyone got a pension? vote UKLabour if you don’t like the idea of a pension that you’ve paid into for decades

That 367 billion quid would all go to the same 100 people in a Conservative world at this point. I say let it burn.

NadineDorries That Brexit will be substantially worse for the UK is a given.

NadineDorries The Socialist Weasel is weary of listening to the predictions of the stock market - it's not like they haven't been wrong on many occasions previously

NadineDorries Must not happen remember 2010 no money left note!!

Bullshit

cf reports from the FT and The Economist. I know who'd I rather believe.

Newsflash: From warm leatherette recliners, radicalised tweedheaded pensioners send youth into ice storm

Full of shit!

Bull shit

mozEIGHT Didn't Labour already wipe billions of £££ from Pensions by raiding them. Remind me how that worked out? Let's not do it again....

VoteLabour VoteCorbyn BorisJohnson

Back in the fridge with you, ya silly Johnson fanzine

But would increase state pension. Scaremongering. Wealth might decline initially but it not like they are taking whole pension in one day

Roselady64 You mean you'd be held to account more,that's what you're actually scared of.

Now you ‘re getting desperate and dangerously irresponsible.

This is the Corbyn way. Destroy wealth rather than have the wealthy. Of course the party members will be looked after ....

Tory shite

Lockolike Nothing compared to the economic damage that would be caused by a hard Brexit

Panic has set in

xyTweats Does that not worry UKLabour voters?

Project Fear

If we get labour it will be poetic justice and the middle classes will be crying like babies when everything goes tits up with the working classes demanding their free stuff

And the Torygraph billionaires would have to give up some of their wealth to help the NHS, social services, education and lift thousands of children out of poverty

scare tactics. With Labour gov the future of the British people will be better than the nightmare created by the Tories. Never ever buy the BS

Vᴏᴛᴇ Lᴀʙᴏᴜʀ Tᴏᴍᴏʀʀᴏᴡ

Your in full swing with your headlines tonight, 😂😂😂 waiting for the headline all meteors heading to destroy earth if Corbyn becomes prime minister

It’s true labour will ruin the country. Looking forward to them being crushed. Then the party can get rid of the tramp and his gang and get back on track and be the Labour Party of old.

SuzanneEvans1 Well every aspect has been hurled at Labour ....time will tell.

janet_cutts Utter bullshit
