That means we can safely cancel the National Insurance increase which they estimate will cost £12bn. We could also zero-rate VAT on fuel, which would cost £4bn. We could also freeze Council Tax. — PolitiTweet.org

We need a new economic strategy. A simple extrapolation of the government’s financial position is more accurate than Treasury forecasts. On that basis, there will be at least £17bn of headroom in this financial year, compared with the original Treasury forecasts. — PolitiTweet.org

This would put us in exactly the same borrowing position as the Treasury was trying to achieve with the National Insurance increase. And would also reduce inflationary pressures whilst still allowing companies to pay normal wage increases at year end. https://t.co/ic7S0UKww0 — PolitiTweet.org
