A helpful guide for your contrasting and comparing:
Contrast and compare today's thin gruel from Labour with the Mini-Budget aka the Growth Plan. And remember, the market turmoil in 2022 was down to the @bankofengland's failings as they have admitted. The problem was unelected bureaucrats, the legacy media, and Conservative-in-Name-Only MPs looking for ANY excuse to stop change. They will find the people of Britain now demand much bigger change... Imagine where Britain would be now if the mini-budget had been implemented: - More oil and gas drilling in the North Sea. - Reversing the fracking ban. - Building more nuclear ā including Small Modular Reactors - Scrapping EU financial services rules inc Solvency II. - Speeding up planning by cutting environmental red-tape including rules on species like bats and newts. - Accelerating road and broadband build including by reforming Judicial Review. - 40 new investment zones with liberalised planning rules and low taxes. - UKās corporate tax rate remaining at 19% not rising to 25%. - Automatically sunsetting EU laws by December 2023. - Simplifying IR35 rules for self employed - Reinstating VAT-free shopping for overseas visitors. - Cancelling Sunak's Health and Social Care Levy. [This did happen] - Cutting stamp duty. - Abolishing the 45% top rate of tax.

I wonder how the markets move when an AI company produces a GPT that doesn't insist on random capitalisation like an 18th century novel.

@rcolvile @CapX @jamesrbuk @JonnElledge The self-organised struggle groups sound like a barrel of laughs. The waiting lists for membership must be insane.

DeepSeek didnāt have any recommendations for Uyghur restaurants in London, and briefly filled me in on concerns about the treatment of Uyghur Muslims, before concluding that too was out of scope. Trying the question again in a new chat gave a CCP press office-style response.
