@LDNLutonAirport @VisitBritainBiz Be aware delays through airport security are long. Only half the lanes open on a Sunday afternoon. Realty not good enough for a busy airport that is otherwise good.

@Telegraph Bang out of order if this is ever carried out as clearly massively impacts civilians. And Iran doesn't have to have many successes to make it very expensive for @realDonaldTrump .

@RachelReevesMP Productivity action missing. Heading towards a doom loop of higher taxes and lower growth.

On Wednesday I will set out how we will cut NHS waiting lists, cut national debt and cut the cost of living. This will be a Budget for you and your family. mirror.co.uk/news/politics/…

@Heidi_Labour announces a freeze in regulated rail fares but unable to say how it's paid for. Said funding would be announced in the Budget. Chasing good news headlines with half the story. No integrity!

@FT @jburnmurdoch Good analysis: Those with the 'broadest shoulders' paying much more than the average worker in the UK compared with other countries. 'Troublingly, next week's budget looks set to deliver more of the same muddled thinking.'

If I asked you which country has the most progressive tax system in the developed world — where high earners hand over an especially large share of their income relative to the average worker — what would your answer be? The answer is in fact Britain. on.ft.com/3KfzmDq

@KEdge23 Fully agree. If you don't know the answer then commit to getting it. But he knew he should have had the answer so resorted to aggression to try and exert control. Very little integrity.

Very aggressive and angry performance from deputy prime minister David Lammy at #PMQs. Not professional at all.

@patmcfaddenmp speaking on R4, government help for Tata/Indian owned JLR supply chains paid for taxpayers is not how I want my taxes spent. Tata need to step up if needed and not look for handouts.

@bankofengland reducing interest rates when inflation is way above target was a mistake. Seems it is going to get worse: Britain is set to have the worst inflation in the G7 this year as price rises accelerate, the OECD has warned. telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/…

@ecb @Lagarde @vonderleyen To focus on economic growth AND higher productivity is 100% right. Lower energy prices, as one of 3 priorities, would help a lot. Higher productivity should be in every worker's objectives.

Europe has strong economic fundamentals but must act now that its competitiveness is at risk, write Presidents Christine @Lagarde and Ursula @vonderleyen. They outline the changes needed to restore Europe’s competitiveness.

Speech from @RachelReevesMP on 'growth' is a stronger message than 'levelling up' providing a stronger focus. A focus on productivity as well would provide a much needed shorter term benefit and is something every worker can engage in.

Seriously people - look at what's happening in terms of GDP/capita (which is what ultimately matters for our living standards). This is a proper recession just being hidden by having more people - GDP/capita declined 0.7 per cent in 2023 with falls in every single quarter

@bankofengland lost control of inflation with highest core inflation in 31 years! Will be unable to increase rates v high due to economic impact so will take longer to fix. Probably years.

@Telegraph Unsafe trees clearly need to be sorted out. Unclear why total is 250. Need to understand background before passing judgement. What happens to trees as left to rot will release most captured carbon?
