Will Senator Manchin FOLD when it comes to TAXES ? - Biden Era

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 6.20pm post the following, " After meeting with senior White House officials, centrist Senator Kyrsten Sinema told reporters that Democrats are “doing great” and “making progress” toward a deal, per Fox News...centrist Senator Joe Manchin voiced criticism of a proposed tax on billionaires to help pay for the package. "

Lets Get Real:

There must be great pressure on Senator Manchin to FOLD in his opposition to the Biden Agenda, the question is the Senator STRONG enough to say NO to the billionaire tax and crash the Biden Agenda, it could be his vote THAT DOEES IT.  The House Liberals will not pass the infrastructure bill that gained the support of 19 Republicans, in less their Biden social agenda is also passed by the Senate.  It would take a BRAVE politician to say NO, Manchin wants everyone to pay the tax, that can not get through, so Senator it is up TOO YOU.   It should be noted that Trump won the Senators state by 40 points, can the Senator really afford to support the social agenda if it does not go down well with his voters, the Republicans will make sure that they know that it was his vote that passed the Biden Agenda. 

The Brexit FISHING WARS with France - After Brexit

Sky News: Reports " Brexit: France prepares sanctions which could affect UK power supplies over fishing dispute....Tensions over the post-Brexit fishing situation caused both France and Britain to dispatch maritime vessels off the shores of Jersey earlier this year. "

Lets Get Real:

The UK will not be blackmailed by the French of ALL PEOPLE, the French Government has never gotten over the FACT that the UK left the EU and is prospering, it does work with French logic or ego.  The UK should make it clear to the French, that any blocking of PORTS or sanctions will be meet in kind, the Royal Navy should take in toe any ships that are blocking the PORTS and arrest the crew, send the crew back to Paris on the Euro Train and sell the boats at auction, that would show the French.  The UK is in discussions with the EU over the Northern Ireland Protocol, the UK has to be firm with the EU, either our way or we invoke Article 16 and suspend parts of the Protocol that is not working for the UK.  The UK has to be firm with the French and the EU, the UK voted out in 2016 and confirmed that in the 2019 general election, the PM has to find his inner Churchill or Lady Thatcher. 

Billionaire TAX - The Biden Domestic Agenda - Biden Era / New Tax Era?

Daily Mail: Reports " Democrats unveiled a new billionaires' tax proposal targeting 700 of America's wealthiest people to help pay for Joe Biden's mammoth spending plan on Wednesday, and it's already hit opposition. "

Lets Get Real:

This is the madness that happens when you allow the Democrats to be in charge of the White House and the HILL, they go bonkers with their liberal supporters.  Those Dems on the Hill KNOW that they could be OUT on their ears next year in the Mid Terms.  If I was one of the 700 I would make it my joy to run as many adverts to oppose the Democrats in the House and Senate who support this crazy idea.   The point of America is that it is not a socialist STATE, it is about men and women and others making it in the US, that means being successful, if your target billionaires then you will go for millionaires and then the middle class, the left is always spending the money of others, there is never enough money for them. 

Government Spending UP in the UK - Conservative Government - After Brexit

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports " The chancellor pledges a major increase in public spending amid higher than expected economic growth....Total departmental spending will increase by £150bn by 2024-25, which Rishi Sunak says is the largest increase this century  "

Lets Get Real:

This is a Conservative BLOG, the Budget was one you would expect from a Labour Government, there was a lot of spending, the only good news or bad news depending on how it effects you is that the Living Wage is going up, and there was reform in Universal Credit, people on it can keep more of their money than before.  This blog was looking for drastic cuts in Taxes, there was a mention that since we are out of the EU, EU rules on Ships no long apply.  Also spirits tax was reduced, that will be good for pubs, if you go to a pub these days after COVID - 19.   The Virus is still large in WALES.  One expects that this Budget was a place holder for a big tax cuts next year in time for a General Election.   No wonder Labour's reply was hardly great, they could have delivered such a Budget.  As a Conservative one has hopes for NEXT YEAR.
