Re: U.K Politics Thread

You seem mad keen to make sure the taxpayer pays for many more old people's care. All these things were put in place for a balanced system. The more of these 'benefits' you rip the rug out for, the poorer everyone gets. If pensions don't carry hefty tax breaks then why would people want to invest i...

Re: U.K Politics Thread

Get rid of triple lock
Reduce welfare
Reform state pensions
Increase salary threshold for legal immigration/severely reduce poor 3rd world immigration
Severely reduce asylum applications

Potentially 50 bil+ savings there. No need to increase taxes and wreck the economy more.

Tesla up another 8% today and that's over 20% in one week. It's close to the all time high. Not sure what's driving the share price up. Only thing I can think of is they are expecting the the Fed cut interest rates tomorrow.
