1 Bloomberg: The #UK #economy shrank for a second straight month as #companies and #consumers struggled to bounce back from the blow of US #tariffs and #taxincreases. 🧵

"Last year #Reeves increased #taxes but did not formulate a narrative or strategy, nor did she give us a sense of where next. This autumn I fear she will need to raise taxes again, but in doing so she needs also to provide that narrative and come out all guns blazing against the unserious — on her own benches and beyond."

Victoria Kray on Instagram: "THURSDAY is a beautiful opportunity: VENUS IN AQUARIUS ($$ of the people) 🔺JUPITER IN GEMINI (mass communication re: movement on the streets/on social media) If the onslaught of information telling you how bad it’s going to be if Humpty Dumpty takes office, isn’t enough to motivate you to move into solidarity with other people who have similar interests as you, maybe the astrology will move you. More and more people with large platforms are talking about what I’ve been saying and it really is not enough to say you’re going to go to a March on inauguration day. That will do absolutely nothing to change the trajectory of where we are headed. But you know what will? A GENERAL STRIKE, shutting down the economy is the only way. The only thing the people in power in corporations care about is money. I think Venus in Aquarius making a trine to Jupiter in Gemini is a MASS MENTAL ACTIVATION OF OUR COLLECTIVE POWER. Stay tuned for more information, and as Bob Dylan wrote “step aside if you can’t lend a hand, but the times are a changin’.” And Wednesday the Sun is square Neptune, while mercury is still coming out of his retrograde storm phase, so don’t get down about it all.

These #taxincreases could be passed along indirectly to #taxpayers with more modest incomes. But overall, independent analyses have found that ordinary Americans can expect to see little if any change in what they pay in taxes.
