How’s Rachael from accounts getting on…..

[Mottie]

…in China? Some are saying she's gone there with her begging bowl and many are saying she's looking desperate and despite what Labour says, taxes will go up, again, or the so called spending that they trumpeted not long ago, will have to be cut. Oh dear!

ALEX BRUMMER: Chancellor's trip to China is a botched mission

The idea of both Reeves and the governor of the Bank of England being on the other side of the world, during the current financial turmoil, is not the best optic.

"Commentators such as Oxford Economics and fixed income specialists Pimco dismiss the rise in the return on UK gilts as a global phenomenon. UK bond yields tend to move in line with the US."

All good, it was never going to easy recovering from the disaster years of the Tories.

Chris Patten commented on this earlier, basically saying what i think is common knowledge anyway, anyone thinking you can arrive over there and 'strike a fair deal' with the Chinese is deluded.

Starmer insisted Truss 'crashed the economy' however it doesn't seem to be the case now does it..

Rachel Reeves or Liz Truss: Who really 'crashed the economy'?

Amid UK bond market turmoil, how does Reeves' budget compare to Truss' - and who is really responsible for 'crashing the economy'?

It is therefore tempting to conclude that if anyone has ‘crashed the economy’, it is surely Rachel Reeves.

 

[transam]

Not quite sure about various comments in the press and quoted by various politicians and that is the comment

Flee ?? Or she fled to China

Er no

She got on a plane travelled to and visited China
Tis what politicians do !!!

The word Flee or fled might have good sound effects

Fled

Flee

Load of baloney

Do you think RR & co are briefed by China specialists prior to the trip, and accompanied by the same specialists?

oh look the Conservative propaganda media the Daily Fail says Labour arent doing very well

odd how the Daily Mail never spotted the Tories increased debt from £900m to £2.7tr -which is the real reason Labour arent doing well

Except the markets have not reacted in the same way at all.

How long did Truss last after her budget, and why ?

Markets haven't caused any similar issues to Starmer

What i think and what actually happens are of course not mutual. Of course they all have a team of advisories, the problem being what takes precedent over what's best for the country and their political profile + so many other influencing factors an absolute minefield.

Quite

Let’s face it

China is about to flood Europe with cheap leccy cars

As the UK is not in the EU it could prove advantageous ??

I had a Chinese made van and tbh it was probably the best van ( reliable) I have had ??

Than again we had that covid caper from China

And dealing with a bunch of fruit cakes that eat cats and dogs and pretty much any thing else that walks crawls slivers or swims

They may start exporting hot dogs !!!!!

Yes exactly

 

[denso13]

And dealing with a bunch of fruit cakes

Trump's administration?

 

[transam]

Trump's administration?

Yeah pretty much

So they should all get on together a sort fruit cake convention

Trump is used to dealing with fruit cakes as he met fat Kim twice and fat Kim thought trump was a fruit cake

Think trump said some thing like that’s his ( Kim’s) problem

 

[denso13]

Yeah pretty much

Trouble is, if forced to choose between fruitcakes, some will go East, to America's detriment.

I find this piece about Rachael from accounts very interesting. She's a bit of a fibber when it comes to her CV apparently. Of course, it’s from the Mail so those who poo poo the Mail (unless they are quoting from it) will no doubt rubbish it……

How Rachel Reeves has been economical with the truth about her career

Before, during and after the Election, Rachel Reeves set out her stall as an economic wonk. 'Rachel has spent her career as an economist,' was how her website put it.
