The Labour government's great tax robbery.

Ever feel like you've been robbed..?

Rachel Reeves’ claims of being an economist have been somewhat derailed by ex-colleagues revealing that that she only worked in a support department at the Bank of England and was apparently ‘f***ing useless’. Her recent budget does nothing to change this assessment. Her pride at being an economist is like saying you’re the pianist when you dragged a piano onto stage. To confirm her ineptitude she replaced a portrait of Margaret Thatcher’s chancellor with a picture of one of the founding members of the Communist Party of Great Britain. If you’re holding communism up as an economical ideal then you may as well promote Brighton bird men crashing, sorry, flying, off Brighton pier attached to tents stretched over shopping trolleys to head up commercial aviation design.

Having someone of Reeve’s intellectual calibre delivering a budget is letting someone with a chip on their shoulder referee a football game with the team that sacked her. That she misrepresented the Office for Budget Responsibility, locking the UK into five years of zero growth and burdening the private sector with a bloated public sector should be, for anyone watching carefully, as unsurprising as Starmer’s appetite for free stuff and his simmering irritability at being challenged by anyone on anything. We have a government hellbent upon the destruction of the private sector in favour of a bloated public sector.

You can hear the glee in Free Gear Starmer’s flat voice as he announces that high taxes are here to stay forever. There’s nothing left wing governments hate more than people earning their own independent dough. If they could they would displace every personal responsibility with State responsibility. And after all, public services don’t run on banging saucepans and groundless adoration alone, particularly with such dismal productivity to maintain, rampant pay rises and protected pensions. The public sector has an almost pathological ignorance of where their money comes from. Apparently it’s the government’s money, rather than state sanctioned theft. We’re still serfs paying the landlords, foolish enough to be saving for our future security that Labour governments resent.

Do you ever wonder where all that money goes that the Government considers its inherited right to lift from your pocket and spend in more advisable ways? It’s like forking out for a stylist to spend money on your behalf, only they return with a sign saying: CAUTION Cricket is played in this area.

There used to be a phrase for ‘area’ in this context. It’s ‘cricket pitch’, and as if fielders, batsmen and whites aren’t indication enough, the local authority deem a costly sign is required. They actually missed a trick because an additional word might have wasted another hundred of tax payers money. It’s a tiny example on a list of wasted tax payers money that is too long and depressing to spend time on, although Sadiq Khan will doubtlessly slime his way out of accountability for a £580,000 electric bin lorry catching alight recently in London. (If EVs are so safe and dependable then why are no ambulances electric?).

The fail-safe way for governments to burn our money quicker than a moth through vintage silk is ‘our’ NHS, currently chomping through £170b a year. It’s evidently becoming harder for NHS chiefs to spend the money if £100,000 contracts for anti-racism consultancy services are anything to go by. It’s presumably to encourage even more newly arrived immigrants to use the service for which they have contributed nothing. This is the NHS that employs 1.7m people yet you still can’t get a GP appointment. It begs the question: what the fuck are most of them actually doing? Still, at least our cash is funding mandatory training for NHS England so employees can be clear that “people” rather than women or mothers become pregnant and take maternity leave. In the budget Reeves’ NHS ‘investment’ is a pay rise with zero modification. The only efficiency in our health service is its reliability in smoking money up its chimney.

It’s advisable to avert cash-strapped eyes from a government that it can manage the economy by importing gas for electricity production rather than extract (and tax) its own from the north sea gas and oil fields. With tampons being provided for men in council toilets it’s only a matter of time before education budgets afford health & safety corks to prevent children identifying as porcupines from injuring fellow pupils. The comparatively cheap Sanctuary flags in Lewisham (whatever that is) need to up their game. Mind you, it’s likely to promote the need to accommodate fighting age young men crossing the channel without ID and claiming to be fleeing war torn France in hotels at the cost of over £8m per day. Anyone disliking this is now called a racist by the same people taxing us until we squeak.

We’re basically paying the State to patronise us, when anyone in a long term relationship can already get that for free. The State loves to ‘educate’ us in our erroneous thinking; we’re basically paying for private tutors to teach us what they think we should know rather than anything that might help us pass any exam.

IT is an area that tax payers money is flung to the wall with little care if it sticks. The Track and Trace technology during Covid has been conveniently forgotten, despite costing £35 million. Painting a red page cross on victims doors would have been more effective. Fact checkers have rightly exposed the Track and Trace app as not costing £37b as claimed, but clarify that the £37 billion figure was the budget of the entire Test and Trace programme in its first two years, as if that’s an acceptable amount of money to waste. It’s up there with the US federal government appropriating $42 billion for broadband expansion in 2021 that has apparently provided zero homes with the service. When you haven’t earned the money you don’t feel the pain at losing it, so there’s zero accountability.

Car owners know all about tax, and there’s a reason they probably don’t think too much about it in order to keep the car on the road, rather than careering across a soggy field whilst screaming ‘thieving wankers’ ineffectually at the sky. With pointless road works, pointless ULEZ schemes, pointless planters blocking perfectly serviceable thoroughfares, pointless speed limits, and pointless fines, the pay per mile is already in place by stealth.

Of course the Ghost of Bacon Sandwiches Past, Ed Miliband, has scooped up even more money from the budget to throw on his Net Zero pyre with a massive increase in overall funding of 22% per year to squander on pointless and hideously undeveloped carbon capture technology and increased subsidy on ineffective heat pumps. Burning £300 in the fire place is more effective than warming your house from heat pumps. These green levies to support wind and solar power have soared in Labour’s Budget to add hundreds of pounds to household electricity bills.

Meanwhile, the train drivers have pay increases from £60,055 per year to £69,000, this is for people who are enjoying the dream jobs of their six-year old selves, and can toot at future train drivers waving from pushchairs on bridges, doubtlessly with their eyes on lucrative salaries. That’s if the eye-watering amounts haven’t made train drivers the first target of AI automation,

Most criminally, Reeves has declared war on farmers. Farmers who have forever said they don’t own their farms and simply pass them on to the next generation, are being hit with inheritance tax that will require families selling their farms to large corporations. This is State theft of private land. We saw in 1930s Ukraine what happens when communists reclaim small holdings in favour of mega farms: famine, contributing to the 100m people killed by communism. These embittered metropolitan globalists want to redistribute wealth from our hardest working people and most essential to our existence, and instead redistribute the money into let’s say the Arts.

How about “How can we counter structural biases and decentre white Western narratives in our cultural collections?” from the Transforming Collections, a project that recently took place at the University of the Arts London’s ‘Decolonising Arts Institute, and paid for by money robbed from the taxpayer. Because their’e nothing better than to feel guilty for an empire that your ancestors probably died needlessly for themselves.

Should artists even be taking money from the establishment, obliging them to produce State sanctioned work to promote their narrative. If I wanted to spend my money on art I’d go to a gallery and buy my own water colour depicting a recognisable bucolic scene, rather than dish out government cash to purple-haired deranged lefties nailing their over-indulged childhood artistic ineptitude to cork boards while gaining 5 star reviews of their bravery by the Guardian. Trying taking a Massey Ferguson out seed drilling at 5am if you want to see what real labour looks like.

And it’s not as if we weren’t warned. History reveals how state authoritarianism and fascism are doomed to fall, but not before their tyrannical hatred for the people they claim to represent destroys all that falls into its path. We have a government in power for whom 80% of the population did not vote. They have no mandate and growing bored of releasing prisoners early of whom many have already reoffended, they have now declared war on British farming.
