      Might be a bit of an ask for Rachel, we will see soon enough if she is another Steve Jobs. I have my doubts but you never know.

      What, overpriced, difficult for everyone to afford, and gets updated to be something worse every year?

      Think we’re already there.

    3. If you are successfully turning around the nations finances, you don’t usually need to repeatedly state you are turning around the nations finances. You just point to the graph and the reports that show you are on track.

      The same with immigration, waiting lists and housebuilding. After two and a half decades of endless spin, no-one will trust a political talking head making assertions, we need to see delivery.

      Comparing the finances of a for-profit company and a government reveals a lack of understanding fundamental economics.

    5. Even the farmers complaining about Inheritance Tax changes didn’t bring that much bullshit.

      Maybe Ministers can visit rose gardens around the country to deliver the manure where it is needed?

      Copied other people’s ideas and claimed them as her own? Screamed at people for no reason? Washed her bare feet in the toilet bowl at the office?

    7. If we had a booming economy like we had several times in the past, a lot of the issues we have like investment and public sector spending would go away.

      The problem the Labour government have is they none of them have ever worked in or run a business so they’re missing the mark on everything.

      I hope Rachel manages to do what she wants to do because that would be good for all of us but my money is on them achieving the exact opposite

      Honestly, do politicians look across the pond, and think, meh, why not?works for them

      No… She isn’t… There’s nothing good amount this economy right now.

      I judge on outcomes, not blather. However the market seems to like blather so I can’t blame them for pumping it out.

      Reeves is trapped by treasury orthodoxy and is trying to spin an ever diminishing set of plates that HMT are allowing to be considered. As others have said, real taxation reform doesn’t seem to be one of those plates. Double-taxing the pensions of ordinary working people does, however, seem to be one of the plates. Our demographics need to be acknowledged and focussing solely on a smaller pool of working tax payers is not the resolution to the issue we find ourselves in.

    11. Be careful what you wish for. The government’s deficit is the private sector’s surplus, and vice versa.

      No, he didn’t say that. He tried to explain that sometimes financial turnarounds happen in a very weird way.

      I think he was trying to convey a sense that (1) we are an underperforming giant (2) the Tories were leading us to financial ruin. But in a very cringe way.

      It’s the sort of thing you might say to a bunch of your mates because they’re not going to interpret it as saying that Rachel Reeves was like Steve Jobs. You don’t say it in a BBC interview buddy.

      Is there any evidence in the form of concrete results to support this?

      Steve Jobs- the maniac who defended their Chinese factories where people jumped out on the windows because they hated it so much.

      Steve Jobs- who ripped off key people who he started the company with.

      Steve Jobs -who loved being absolutely vile to employees?

      Society really does value money over everything else.

      She’s not though, is she?

      She inherited a huge debt, an out of control deficit and a wobbling bond market.

      She pushed through a huge, regressive, anti manifesto tax rise. And now we have a huge debt, an out of control deficit and a wobbling bond market.

      Steve Jobs was the marketing guy. 

      Wozniak was the tech genius. 

      It is telling what complete morons think success looks like, and it’s always presentation, the grift, and not the tangible. Just keep saying it until you luck into it or you have been completely exposed.
