Chancellor Kwarteng to reverse his planned tax cut for richest in UK
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 жов 2022
- The Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng said ditching the 45p tax rate for the highest earners had become too much of a distraction.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
But the sudden u-turn, just hours after Prime Minister Liz Truss stood by the policy, sent an already febrile party conference - in which there was much talk of whether this government can survive - into a spin.
This afternoon the Chancellor insisted he "gets it" but described the market reaction to his budget which sent the pound down and mortgage rates up as "a little turbulence".
So does he really “get it”?

Worth remembering that they backed down not because of the people in the country but because they did not have support among their own.
No thats not correct
@@NONAMENEEDEDOK So give us your argument to rebut and back up your position .
Like what the Rt.Hon James Hacker MP told his wife: "The nurses don't have to vote against me until the next election. Backbenchers can vote against me at 10'o'clock tonight!"
@@NONAMENEEDEDOK That is exactly correct. They were all set to give money to the rich and to fund it by looting from the poor and disabled, and they knew nobody in the British public would like this.
The _only_ thing that made them back down was other Tory MPs rebelling due to _them_ losing money and their seats.
Truss and Kwarbongo are nothing but psychopaths who only care about how much money they can make before they leave, the country be damned.
@@NONAMENEEDEDOKlets have a G.E. then
What a disaster these thieves are.
What thieves? What did they steal? Be specific if your brain is capable
@@NONAMENEEDEDOK Money. From the British public.
A mandate. Which they did not have.
Power. From those who are actually capable.
A future. From the nation.
I could go on. But I know you're just a particularly dense and desperate bot.
@@NONAMENEEDEDOK sorry speak up can't hear you with your tongue stuck so far up Kwasi's Krack
@@NONAMENEEDEDOK
They stole millions wiped out in the market with their incompetency, they planned on stealing from the poorest to pay for those tax cuts, they're planning to steal from the public by cuts to services, but most of all they stole our TRUST.
@@NONAMENEEDEDOK should we start with the 32billion they "spent" on track and trace...... which turned out just to be a excel spread sheet....... and that didnt work because they coded rows and collumns the wrong way around? Or we could talk about the billions given to Tory donors like Randox Laboratories, advised by Owen Paterson, who won a 133million contract *unopposed* for testing kits that were unsuitable. Or when at the time international trade secretary Liz Truss gave Ayanda Capital £250million for PPE, delivering £150million worth of unusable face masks. £44million to a dormant firm with less than £500 in assets to provide hand sanitiser, without putting the contract to tender with large manufactureres of hand sanitiser.... PPE contacts going to investment bankers, while ignoring PPE firms in Britain emailing the government multiple times to clarify they had milions of PPE units available and ready to go, while Boris claimed there was a huge shortage and handed contracts to donors. Even Ordering 10,000 ventilators from Tory donor Dyson, who didnt produce ventilators, had to design it from scratch and set up manufacturing for them, while British companies already producing ventilators were ignored..... I could go on... and on and on and on... but is that specific enough for you?
Jacob Rees Mogg is a 90s man, unfortunately it’s the 1890s
They’ve “listened” but they haven’t learned a damn thing.

The hike in interest rates has already pulled 40% of mortgage products from the market. People on tracker mortgages have already seen massive jumps in their mortgage payments. People going through or about to remortgage have seen huge rises in quotes.
Is it true that over 1-2 million homes will be repossessed within a year?
Is it true this will also cause a crisis in renting, because the higher mortgage cost will be passed on to the renters? And the withdrawal of so many properties due to repossessions will drastically affect the renting market?
Adding on to the thousands of pounds increase in energy costs, plus 10 to 20% rise in money goods and services, how many businesses are expected to fold?
Because most people will struggle to afford to pay all their bills, how many are there of the extracurricular businesses such as restaurants, cafes, pubs, cinemas, gyms and so on are expected to fail because people will cut back and not afford to go to these places?
Just how damaging is this expected to be to the economy?
They only acted because of the polls
Poor chancellor, Liz blaming him for everything to save her back as if she scammed her way to become the prime minister of UK 😂
He is a willing fall guy. I don't feel sorry for him. As for Liz we saw her true colours a long time ago
Can't say I feel sorry for the thief Kwarteng in the slightest.
Total rubbish

Yes you're right she is. They both are.
Rees mogg is sadly representative of the state of our country's higher education sector. My god, what a mediocre mind and what fluff.
I think you mean the class system. I don't know whether Mogg is smart enough to get through the higher education without daddy's money
Bet he's never had to apply for a mortgage.
The arrogance remains breath taking. Day 1: Sacked the most senior civil servant in the Treasury for doubting him; Continues to repress the Office for Budget Responsibility report of his plans, and yet thinks it churlish of the markets to have no confidence in him. For anyone with a £100k mortgage renewal: The extra £1000 a year wasted in interest payments is your Kwarteng Tax
In Dec the mortgage rate offered by bank is around 2% and now it’s around 6%, the 4% diff on 100k is 4k per year. The capped energy bill saving is nothing compared to the surge in interest rate.
@@yangni7986 I am allowing for the rate being expected to rise anyway from other pressures (although they should get credit for the extra economic pressures inflicted by Brexit). Despite these; At least an additional 1% is just pure Tory ideological hubris. As one economist put it; they are like a Doomsday Cult

Then let us, the people, rip that arrogance from them at the next election. They are a monstrosity.

Well they had an excuse. They are Aussies,,, but that woman on the news is possibly a good cross section of a lot of voter apathy.
Lol true. Even after being informed about who Liz Truss is that lady didn't seem to really care and is unlikely to commit it to memory. She will probably vote for the Tories next term thinking Boris is still the PM. 🤣
This is a huge mistake. People who are in their position should never make such massive errors. UK is in the toilet bowl and the flush is about to be pushed.
It wasn't an error. It was a 'let's see what we can get away with'
who are the brown turds? kwasi?
Leave then. The country will survive and get steonger. The last years have been tough but the only way through this is with the budget set forward.
@@MrVidification Rubbish. Another lefty dumb comment
@mr wpg It's rather ironic given russia is the one with the R and Z branding that recalls to mind certain symbols of that 1940s era that were used to bring the people together when it came to how and what to think. Some of the propaganda and army related posters on the streets of moscow don't look too far off that era either.. and what's even better is that somehow poland is also part of this 1940s neoalliance, lol. israel would likely be too if it wasn't for it's location and neighbours. nicht so gut sounding for russia. Some of the russian media seem to be branding nato as nazi as they are supporting ukraine which has had problems with extreme groups incl nazi groups, but that seems hypocritical when the media have also noted they exist in russia also and may be hired by either side to fight anyway
They absolutely hated that they had to do this. Condescending isn't even the word. The sooner this monstrosity of a 'Government' is hurled from power, the better.
Hopefully, it's got to the point that even the regular Project Fear from their tame newspapers can't stop a red downpour.
To put who in ..the Bolsheviks..
A small victory was had with the reversal of the 45% tax cut.
However it’s in danger of becoming a smoke screen for bankers bonuses,benefits reductions,deep spending cuts etc etc.
These people are not only a danger to themselves every time they leave their beds but to us also.

Phrases starting "the public wants/expects" when defending an unelected mandate should come with an on the spot fine.

£65 Billion to bail out pension funds, that is how much this fool has cost us. Incompetence doesn't measure.
He was doing Truss bidding
Why 65 billion? I do not understand.
Hey could you explain what this means please? I don't understand. Is the £65m lost? What happens if the USD returns to where it was? It's very sad to think this. I'm thinking of all the good £65bn could do for people who need it. I grew up very poor and often didn't eat for 2-3 days it breaks my heart to think about young children now very sick way to grow up I had 6 brothers and we don't really talk much we used to fight for food of eathorher I'm very upset that the government have wasted tax payers money. God bless hoping that everyone is doing okay I am lucky and have had a stable job and they have raised my pay with inflation I have worked there for 25 years and the owner has always told me I'm a good worker. Thank you. Keegan odonovan.
65 billion is what the Bank of England had to spend in order to prevent the collapse of the pound and a total economic disaster that Kamakwasi and Truss triggered due to their greed and stupidity.
Basically because of these two criminals the UK was on the verge of becoming a failed state if not for this massive expense at the taxpayer's cost.

To make it even more corrupt if that's possible. Crispin Odey and Kwasi's Eton chums then "just happened" to go long the pound just before Kwasi reversed his decision and so made another massive profit.

That was a really really bad start of a new administration. It shows they are not up to the immense challenge UK is facing. If they love the country they should resign immediately and let more capable people take over.

To balance the accounts they will privatize public sectors such as health. In the short term it will save money but after a couple of years it will get increasingly more expensive
Down with the Tories!
I lived for a long time in Somerset, best years of my life.. I cannot believe that such lovely, humorous and kind people would return this.... at the next election.
I cannot believe that any group of people who would ever vote Tory en masse could ever be described as lovely or kind.
@@edix1673 let's not demonise people who disagree with us in a democracy, its that binary us Vs them which is divisive and plays into their hands. people vote for what they believe will make things better and the Tories often are very good at selling a story which sounds very attractive to a lot of people. we have to understand why people voted for the Tories and welcome them back with open arms if we want to beat the conservatives at a general election
@@bonk5207 its actually quite simple.
Left wing = the hope we can use what we have to build a better world for everyone.
Right wing = the fear that someone else might get a little bit of what we already have.
@@edix1673 Delusional?

"We listened" After completely ignoring what was good for you and giving you the middle finger, while chumming up to our big rich friends that matter.
"We listened" only because we had no other choice.
There was a huge backlash and decisions were reversed... Now we need to go after them for the council tax. That needs to be abolished next.
It's probably a given that a series of interviews with politicians at the Tory conference will look like a parade of fools. But this series; Kwarteng, Philips, Mogg, "red-wall" Tory MPs, were spectacularly well suited to their clownish roles.
Hi everyone from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿
Hi, from England 👍
Hi!

Mindbogglingly stupid thing to do in the current climate. How did they ever think it would be acceptable?
Isn’t Jacob Rees-Mogg the greatest charlatan ever?
Monsters
"i know the plan put forward only 10 year ... eugh ... only days ago..." whoopsie!
oh well ... i guess it really doesn't matter too much if your party has been in power 10+ years and you're still doing the same/similar anyway?!?
A Freudian slip 😂

"LEt me be very clear" - Trussism's catchphrase for - "I'm about to lie to you".
How can you tell Boris is lying? His lips are moving.
How can you tell Liz is lying? She's conscious.
Never has so much damage been caused by so few to so many in such a short time, can we have a minutes silence for the death of the UK 🇬🇧
PM threw KK under the bus at a recent interview. Markets were prepared for a u -turn. Tories are now trying to survive but they need an offering to sacrifice. Enter the Chancellor. He could have turned it around with a bit more detail in his speech but the markets smell blood and they will offer him. I guess the Iraqi business man will be next Chanellor.
Why do we have to have foreigners at the levers of power in the UK?
His big grin has disappeared
Oh, but Rees Mogg says there were no Earthquakes, but only when he does FRACKING then!
Tough time for the conservatives. They live on their "safe" handling of the economy and that shield may have been shattered.
