Well TBF just like the rest of us she only has 2 thumbs, 8 fingers and 10 toes to count with grin.

Answer, on the back of a postcard. She hasn't got a clue and she will aid Labour in losing the next GE. Get her out before she does any more robbing of pensioners.

We all need to pull our belts in more, as Rachel from Accounts is going to Tax us considerably.
So this fictional "Black Hole" has doubled in size in 12 months, now it is a Giant crater. In another 12 months dread to think how big it will be.
Total mess.

In fact more than doubled, about £50 thousand million.

^Because in just over 12 months the 22billion "black hole" ,which was her all-purpose excuse for financially crucifying pensioners, has managed to become 41billion^

I must admit I thought the same when I heard it on the News this morning. 🤔

I’m sure somebody will be along soon to explain..

My exact thoughts as well Merlotgran, but I didn’t realise it had nearly doubled!

Robber Reeves - what utter silliness ......

It’s a mess and I don’t think Rachel Reeves is up to it frankly.
Taxes should have gone up across the board the minute they took office to get things back to a healthy economy.

Nothing wrong with the Opening Post, it may not suit some people to answer or maybe they know there’s nothing to say as it’s true.

The current government is really not up to the task… but who is?

Almost doubled?!!!!!!!

Show your working Rachel from Accounts.

“…financially crucifying pensioners” 🙄

What’s biased about that factual post? I’ve seen far worse descriptions…

Perhaps she is more unbiased than your post? Seriously, when people make posts like this it’s just a ranting invite. I don’t intend to play.

But you’ve just entered the game.
