Labour says it wants growth, not tax rises

I thought I would never say that but I have a feeling that we would be better off if we had voted Labour. I don't think they would have no rights employment in store and their planned tax hikes were nothing in comparison to the IR35 mess. -

Sadly we needed a much closer election result than we got and preferably a hung parliament yet again. Politics in the UK is currently a mess in general.Comment

Labour have got into the habit of simply protesting anything the government says - often before they have even said it. I would disregard them until they present something rather more concrete as an alternative.
And this whole thing is not HMG, or even any particular party, it's the Treasury who simply refuse to accept that the days of master/slave have long gone from the labour market. The Chancellor's team are simply listening to misleading advice from one source, rather than listening to others and forming their own opinions.Blog? What blog...?Comment
