A young man speaks for millions of small businesses in Britain. Labour is destroying our economy.
Well done @LabourParty you've probably cost lots of jobs to go up in smoke.
The decision taken by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to increase the rate of Machines Games Duty (MGD) in betting shops to 25% will cost racing millions of pounds a year and threaten the future sustainability of our sport.

Ever fancied owning a racehorse?
We’ve got some exciting opportunities available, with options to suit a range of budgets.
From our Racing Club to syndicate shares and full ownership, there is something for everyone 👇🏼
I'm definitely stocking up on gherkins 🥒.
This is laughable really, an insult to intelligence.
'Your own figures says that will save the average household 40p a week'
Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds was questioned on #BBCBreakfast about plans to remove import taxes on marmalade, gherkins and more than 100 products in a move aimed at giving families "breathing space" with the cost of living

I’ll say it til I’m blue in the face: only British citizens should be entitled to benefits.
We must put the British people first.
It's October 24th - Racing TV & ITV pundits already asking connections about Cheltenham Festival targets, Dave Nevison suggested we may not see the winner of the Pertempts Qualifier again until March. Incredible.
That is a terrific ride from @D_Johnston01 on Sea Warrior. If you backed it, send him half the winnings 👏

A week before the first Burnham-Healey Budget and the UK inflation rose to 3.5% in the year to September, from 3.1% for the year to August. Third successive increase.
Two takeaways:
It’s heading towards 4%.
Interest rates will continue to rise and remain elevated for the foreseeable future.

Obviously Burnham only ‘respected’ the Brexit referendum decision when wanting to be elected in Leave voting Makerfield at the by-election.
Now he’s ditched that promise in record time.
Burnham is the master of Fake Authenticity. You can’t believe a word he says.

Since 2010, we’ve blown £200 billion on foreign aid.
And £250 billion on migrant welfare.
We’re spending £100 billion on HS2 and £7 billion on welfare fraud every year.
The yearly benefits bill will be £40 billion higher in 2029 than it is today.
Andy Burnham will cut your pension.
Reform will cut all the insane waste.

The Prime Minister publicly calling someone racist while they are awaiting trial is an extraordinary intervention in a live criminal case.
There was a time when Prime Ministers were extremely careful about commenting on individual criminal cases.
Those days appear to be long gone.
In my view, this is a government using the justice system for political gain.

🚨 THIS IS JUDGE GRAHAM COTTLE
Well here we go again. You know what this judge did? He let paedophiles Lee Pollard and Marc Allen walk free on suspended sentences despite them having s*xual intercourse with an underage girl.
This judge claimed the underage girl gave consent!! But under law she legally couldn't!!
The case was sent to the court of appeal and they overturned judge Cottles decision.
Pollard, 26, of Saxmundham, Suffolk, has been jailed for two years, nine months and Allen, 26, of Torquay, Devon, has been given three years and six months.
These judges need jailing themselves!
