    I think you misunderstand.

    The direction of travel is the exact opposite of that.

    Javid was comparatively Thatcherite. Broadly, he was against massive spending because he didn't want massive tax rises or borrowing. Increased day-to-day spending isn't going to be coming from borrowing, so...

      Rumour has it that Sajid Javid has been "making the beast with two backs" with Philip Schofield...

            The two most influential (and powerful) people in the UK:


            Nigel Farage (who has never been elected under his own name)


            Dominic Cummings (ditto)



            There are dictatorships in Africa more democratic than the UK.

              I've been saying for years that the UK is just as corrupt as any banana republic, but it's done more covertly through secret societies etc.

                So there will be a temptation for new chancellor to implement ir35 in strongest possible manner

                  Not sure whether this is good or bad.

                      Indeed. Contracting is now dead. Permanent to follow very soon.
