It'll be paid out of taxes of course, but we know from Dennis Healy's disaster in the 1970's when he was taking over 80p in the pound that if you soak the very rich, the very rich leave the jurisdiction and you get nothing. It has to be a well thought out taxation policy
They are not "the most right wing government in generations" as you claim. I don't think May's government would have been so generous on furlough. The recession to come, indeed the worldwide recession, may well make the Austerity Years look like living in clover. That will not be down to the Tory government
This is right, of course. I enjoyed [sad, I know] watching the three previous chancellors appear before the Treasury Select Committee yesterday. They were all in agreement that it will essentially be treated like war debt and paid back slowly over a long time. I think Boris is likely to go with this given he's a populist and won't want to make any unpopular cuts if avoidable.

Is this the sort of **** they are trying to distract from ? UK set to axe ban on chlorinated chicken https://f7td5.app.goo.gl/MFrNDs Sent via @updayUK
Just because you can't disassociate from Brexit and right/left politics doesn't mean everyone else has the same issue. That you still have trust in this government is not surprising neither is your inability to accept or understand that criticism of their handling of the pandemic is not politically motivated.
The organisation says trade agreements shouldn’t allow the import of food that would be illegal to produce in the UK seems fair to me
In my opinion, Johnson and this government wont be remembered for 'Brexit'. They will be remembered for record deaths, lies, corruption and maybe a record recession. Nobody is arsed about Brexit whilst thousands have died.
Fears over chlorinated chicken entering the UK have been dismissed by the Environment Secretary Theresa Villiers. Ms Villiers said chlorine-washed chicken and hormone-treated beef would not be allowed into the UKunder any trade deal with the US. More lies?
The Environment Secretary Michael Gove has said chickens that have been washed in chlorine will not be allowed in the UK as part of any trade deal, once the UK leaves the European Union. "We are not going to dilute our high animal welfare standards, or our high environmental standards, in pursuit of any trade deal," Mr Gove told the Today programme. "We need to ensure that we do not compromise those standards," he said.
