Sir Keir Starmer let the cat out of the bag when answering a question from a journalist today. He confirmed what we expected – that Labour will again betray the working people they claim to serve.When I was roads and buses minister, we Conservatives took an important decision to back working people who use buses to get to work and to study.We introduced a cap so that you wouldn’t have to pay more than £2 for a single bus journey. This meant young people on apprenticeships could access college courses in another town that would perhaps have cost a £8…

New MPs have expressed horror at the condition of their…

You should keep your eyes peeled for these rare coins that could go up in value very soon. Rare coins usually come about because of a misprint that was later corrected or a limited number being produced. Due to their scarcity, they’ve become popular collectables and can sell for many times their original value on auction sites such as eBay.Some rare coins which are worth looking out for are the coveted Kew Gardens 50p and a selection of special alphabet 10p coins. The previous “round pounds” coins – issued by the Royal Mint can also be valuable since they were replaced…

Meghan Markle has been slammed by fellow authors for her “flop” book, The Bench, as they argue celebrities should stop trying to pursue side-hustles in literature.Children’s authors have taken an issue with the Duchess of Sussex one day choosing to become an author, seemingly thinking it would be a walk in the park.Meghan’s attempt was branded a “flop” by The Guardian, noting it “made a lot of headlines but didn’t sell at all well”.According to figures for Nielsen BookScan and reported by the outlet, only 8,000 copes of The Bench have been sold in the UK since its release in…

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage issued a stark warning this week, cautioning Shadow Chancellor Rachel Reeves that the UK faces a “financial and social disaster” unless major reforms are implemented urgently.In a recent tweet, Farage said: “Unless major reform takes place immediately, the UK is heading towards financial and social disaster.”Farage’s comments come amid escalating debates over the future of the UK’s economy, as inflation, the rising cost of living, and public sector strikes continue to shape the political landscape.His warning suggests that, in his view, the current trajectory of the UK’s financial policies under Labour could leave the country…

PM Keir Starmer and Chancellor Rachel Reeves have terrified the nation the ahead of the Autumn Budget on Wednesday, by threatening a raft of tax hikes. Taxpayers aren’t the only ones who are getting anxious.The nation got a taste of what Labour has lined up for us, when Reeves axed the Winter Fuel Payment for 10million pensioners within days of the election victory.Now Labour is after anybody with a bit of wealth to their name, even if it’s only enough to write the occasional cheque, to use Starmer’s odd definition.Labour is going after our capital gains, our inheritances, and worst…

Ministers were told to “get your acts together” in a furious outburst from the House of Commons Speaker.Sir Lindsay Hoyle blasted Chancellor Rachel Reeves for going “around the world telling everybody” about key details in the Budget.And Sir Lindsay let loose today, questioning whether MPs would need to bother attending the House to hear Ms Reeves deliver her first Budget on Wednesday, given “we’ll all have heard it” already.Ms Reeves last week signalled she would rewrite the way Government debt is measured.During a round of broadcast interviews while attending the International Monetary Fund meeting in Washington DC, Ms Reeves confirmed…

Labour actually mentioned the term working people 21 times in their manifesto, so you would think the party would have a pretty good idea what it means.But voters have been left confused about who exactly counts as a working person after Cabinet ministers put forward a number of definitions.Here are some of the explanations given by members of the government:Prime Minister Keir StarmerThe PM said people who get additional income from assets such as shares or property, “wouldn’t come within my definition” of a working person.He insisted everyone knows what the phrase means but also suggested it was somebody who…

State Pensioners are being urged to ‘make one phone call’ from today to get their £300 Winter Fuel Payment reinstated.Under the previous government, the free handout was a universal payment for people of State Pension age, but new Labour rules means it is now a means-tested benefit.The change means that millions of pensioners who previously qualified for it will not be eligible this year, unless they are claiming pension credit or other means-tested benefits.The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) estimates that 1.5 million pensioners will get the £300 payment for winter 2024/25 – a significantly lower number than the…
