The Tories and Peers Will Be Picking the Same Thing Up

Chris Phillips seemed to say there'd be no cuts in real terms, which means benefits would have to rise in line with inflation. But Rass points out overall public spending has gone up by inflation plus 1%. If you take an account, the feelable stuff, then other things could be paired back. And that's not very clear. Kistal Marasta at PMQs: It's a logical conclusion that she can't have those tax cuts. She's just going to have to drop them. That seems to be what Labour thinks. So we're still going to do the tax cuts, but two years down the road?
