A technical recession. Which in English is one that ticks all the usual boxes of an actual recession but in an election year.

FfS.

They think some voters are thick. And the could be dead right.

When we've had negligible growth they've used it to say "the plan is working"

Rishi only said yesterday that the economy had turned a corner and was pointing in the right direction. Unfortunately, the idiot had it in reverse.

Guys, £23k average household income IN 2024 should be sending alarm bells ringing to everyone in the political sphere.

Germany have overtaken the Japanese as third largest economy in the world too

At least we're not Germany though. Right?

Since Sunak has took over our quarterly growth has gone:

+0.1
+0.2
0
-0.1
-0.3

His back to square one slogan is rather fitting

Those German car makers are really being hammered by Brexit.

He's actually fallen off the back of square one. He needs to revise it.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt is looking at cutting planned public sector spending in order to lower taxes, Sky News understands.

Jesus effing Christ.

14 years of it not working and they still think the answer is to cut spending.

The public should be demanding an election at this point.

Meanwhile, British Gas announced a 10-fold increase in profits.

Islamophobia rife on British television and no one cares, yet when someone criticises Israel everyone is having a fit over antisemitism

Reports of antisemitic incidents in the UK reached a record high last year, according to figures from a Jewish security charity.
The Community Security Trust (CST) recorded reports of 4,103 anti-Jewish hate incidents in 2023, up from 1,662 in 2022 and almost double the previous record of 2,255 hit in 2021.
Its annual report relies on figures from incidents that are self-reported.
Two-thirds of incidents happened on or after the Hamas attacks on 7 October.
This included 416 incidents reported to the CST, which works to protect British Jews from antisemitism, in the week following the attacks - the largest number than any subsequent week.
The CST said this suggested that the increase "was a celebration of the Hamas attack on Israel, rather than anger at Israel's military response in Gaza."
It also found such incidents in and around British schools have more than tripled since 2022.

Very sad and shocking statistics and these are the only reported ones

Unfortunately that’s what happens when you let so many Middle Eastern immigrants in

Louise Ellman MP said on TV last night that 'Anti-Zionism is the same as Anti-Semetism"

Sorry love but it isn't.

Pretty sure it happens when you have an apartheid state actually but sure… the immigrants. Again.

Great to see Oscar finally showing his true colours though not that any of us are surprised

Oscar was praising Trump the other day for his speech. The same speech in which he said he would encourage Putin to attack other Nato states that didn't meet their defence spend.

Oscar is an idiot.

You can usually find the truth a few lines before any bullsheet Tweet.

It also said Russian familes spend 38% of their income on groceries comapred to 5% in the UK or US.
