At Christmas we mark the birth of Christ. A wonderful story of hope, humility and peace at the most special time of year.
Christmas is a time for making merry and seeing friends, but more than anything, itโs about family.
Thatโs why, to those working tomorrow and spending time away from their loved ones, I want to say thank you for keeping the country going.
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas.

Whatever happened to the PM's pledge to put'country before party'? Today was all about trying to save the political careers of @Keir_Starmer and @RachelReevesMP by pandering to @UKLabour backbenchers with higher taxes and more welfare. Party first, country a very distant second.

Yet more evidence, as if we needed it, that the Chancellor must be sacked. For months Reeves has lied to the public to justify record tax hikes to pay for more welfare.
Her Budget wasnโt about stability. It was about politics: bribing Labour MPs to save her own skin. Shameful.

BREAKING
The OBR says it informed Rachel Reeves as far back as ***September 17*** that the downgrade in productivity forecasts was offset by 'increases in real wages and inflation'. The deficit was in fact just ยฃ2.5billion
By October 31 that deficit had turned into net positive of ยฃ4.2billion. That basic forecast did not change from that point
So from what the OBR is saying it looks like Rachel Reeves and the Treasury were briefing ahead of the Budget that there was a ยฃ20billion black hole in the public finances that didn't actually exist
The ยฃ30billion worth of tax rises in the Budget are predominantly a consequence of her decisions to increase public spending, particularly on welfare, and have ยฃ21.7billion worth of headroom
As @Peston @PippaCrerar @hzeffman have all pointed out, it makes the Budget build up - and the narrative that big tax rises were coming because of a deterioration in the public finances - look frankly surreal in hindsight

FIVE THINGS RACHEL REEVES DIDN'T MENTION ABOUT THE BUDGET
1. The Budget confirmed an extra ยฃ165 BILLION of spending across this parliament, paid for by almost ยฃ100bn more in taxes and the rest from extra borrowing.
More taxes and more borrowing, to pay for more welfare. (1/6)๐งต

To help them get elected, Labour told a lie.
This is the story of one of the biggest deceptions in British politics.

The @Conservatives are - and always will be - the party of business, economic competence and fiscal responsibility.
As I told the @FT, thatโs the foundation on which we will build the economy of the future: stability, lower taxes and living within our means.
