To be honest, their best tactic would be to say without immigration neither her nor Priti Patel would be here. So it's a compelling argument.Suella Braverman challenges critics to oust her in asylum row - BBC News
What a horrible woman. Didn't think you could get nastier and more toxic than Priti Patel but she's managed.
It's not possible to be an illegal asylum seeker.Surely all these people are legal anyway if they’re in processing?
Gullis joining in with the inflammatory language. And Lee Anderson. Farage too.
These pricks will get someone killed.
Like the gay in America and with the hammer,rope etc.Then they'll go to the next page of the American far right play book and come up with some conspiracy theory about who carried out the attack not being a far right nutjob or claim it was a false flag operation that never happened.

It's the language of the BNP.
Just the sort of stuff that drives fire bombs and the poor bloke who felt he needed to top himself.

Sunak signs off on tax rises for everyone on the day that BP announce £7b profit for the last 3 months.
He’ll probably be voted out first. Which would mean he’s spent less time out of the country than Boris has since parliament returned from the summer break.Ha Hancock's had the whip withdrawn for signing up to Get me out of here .
That will do him a favour and get a free pass while he's there won't.
Seems a bit hypocritical really when they took two months off for the stupid leaders contest.
Unavailable for the enquiry?He’ll probably be voted out first. Which would mean he’s spent less time out of the country than Boris has since parliament returned from the summer break.
They’d leaveTax. The. Rich.
Wealth tax on everyone over £5m in wealth would raise £50bn a year. Done.

Well tax policy has been for decadesThen they’d have to sell all their U.K. based assets.
(I also think the likelihood of this is low and we wouldn’t miss those that go).
A nation shouldn’t be held hostage by a few privileged individuals.
That after Sunak snubbed him ?
Not sure how much you’re planning on taxing people shmmeee but the proposals I’ve seen are around 1-1.5% which would generate around £10-14bn. Not to be sniffed at but let’s be honest I bet most big multi millionaires would soon shift assets away from U.K. and I also think most calculations include illiquid assets like properties and pensions.
By the way, I’m all for the rich, especially the super rich, to be paying more, I just think in the global world we live in it’s probably not as easy a target as people think. Something needs to be done though, especially when they’re likely to be asking the average man/woman on the street to be chipping in more
I’d be shocked if a more far reaching windfall tax isn’t introduced when budget is released. I can’t believe that there still hasn’t been an advertising campaign regarding reduced energy usage rolled out now crazy Liz has gone. This could save the government billions*
*im still on a self imposed central heating ban…take that Putin ! Got to be honest, the mild October has been appreciated though

Brexit has led to a loss of investment greater than tax policy has IMO.I just fundamentally don’t believe tax policy attracts investment. I’ve seen no evidence for it and there’s lots of data looking at corporation tax rates in different states and company investment. It’s a lie told to keep tax rates for rich people low, same as the mythical Laffer curve.
People live here because we’re a great country with a stable economy (usually) and a skilled workforce. Johnny Millionaire isn’t going to abandon all his friends family and business at home to save a few bob. And if he does someone else will take the opportunity to exploit the resources here.
Basing it off these numbers from the open letter from a group of million and billionaires earlier this year:

Thanks. I’d heard about that but not seen it. How many signatures did it have ?
Surely at least those billionaires could chuck in 5-10% ?!
It’s also costs us about 5% of our GDP I was reading somewhere last week, whereas the deficit hole Sunak is trying to fill with the autumn budget is about 2.5% of our GDP. On that basis brexit can only lead to higher taxes and cuts. That’s not going to be rescinded at some point in the future either unless someone find’s a way to make brexit work, somehow.Brexit has led to a loss of investment greater than tax policy has IMO.
Agree entirely but the other thing needed is equivalence between individuals and organisations.Tax. The. Rich.
Wealth tax on everyone over £5m in wealth would raise £50bn a year. Done.
It's because they're addicts.I agree there’s no way most people with families would up sticks for a one off percent or two. I just don’t think it would be as easy to get hands on the cash as some suggest.
Plenty of people avoid current tax already. motor sports springs to mind, drivers basing themselves elsewhere to save tax.
Agree that somethings worth a crack though. The super rich are hoarding more and more these days. How much do they need ?!
I know that we on the left are not supposed to descend to such fripperies as 'personality' politics.Is the tories only attack line "Jeremy Corbyn"?
they are fucked
And I thought we couldn't get worse than under Liz Truss.
