Rachel Reeves seems to think she’s fixed the public finances by borrowing more money! The reality is she’s spending money she doesn’t have. And when the budget comes round in autumn, that can only mean yet more taxes. She’s the “spend now, tax later” Chancellor.

.Kemi Badenoch has been repeatedly calling for a full National Inquiry since January. It’s about time Keir Starmer recognised he made a mistake and apologise for six wasted months.

Labour’s £40bn tax raid was just the start. Now Rachel Reeves is drawing up plans to raise taxes again, as reported today in The Times and The Sunday Times. With Labour, tax rises never end. We can't afford Labour.

We must set out a vision for a high growth, low tax, entrepreneurial economy supported by a more efficient state. After the Chancellor’s disastrous "Spend Today, Tax Tomorrow" Spending Review it was great to join Nick Robinson on Political Thinking. 👇🏻
