    I’m surprised the BBC didn’t include the national insurance changes around Indians coming to the UK not having to pay NI in the first 3 years, and vice versa for UK people going to India. Seems like a fairly big part of the deal that no doubt Reform/Tories will latch onto to bring the anti-immigrantion lot to a frothing rage.

      I genuinely believe we’re setting up Reform for easy wins. If I was a strategist with a stake in the political game, I’d try to ensure that my opponent always elects the weakest leader by promoting their moderate/weak wins to their political base, over a stronger leader in that same base
