No. It's more than expected, but not a lot more. Month on month, borrowing is falling.

I'm struggling to find any good news in that link. My reading of it is that government borrowing is getting out of control. An alternative viewpoint below.

I'm sure that Glasman, McSweeney, Mahmood, Blue Labour and Labour Together are currently thinking what other far-right talking point they need to adopt to turn this around... obviously now watering down the only-recently-enacted Employment Rights Bill would be a winner, and if they could dissuade even more foreigners from coming and working here.

I am convinced that Glasman would be happy to see Labour turned into Reform with a red rose for old times' sake... and if they sink for some 'inexplicable' reason, he'd be comfortable with a Reform government.

If those %ges are anywhere near accurate, we are heading for Italian style coalitions

I increasingly suspect (hope) that a lot of people are replying to pollsters using the term "Reform" as a proxy for "fark off".
 
That all looks pretty disqualifying - not least, claiming that an honorary doctorate meant she could say she had a PhD and could call herself 'Doctor'.
