I'm sure Daily Mail/Sun will report:
"Rachel from accounts has been stashing YOUR CASH down the back of her sofa"
Rachel Reeves has been accused of making up a fiscal black hole, when she had loads of dosh saved up in a secret HMRC account...

So, allegedly Starmer has refused Trump permission to use 2 bases, Fairford & Diego Garcia to launch strikes on Iran.
If Trump ignored this & used either or both bases, what in practice will Starmer do?
Theoretically he could kick US off bases, but that won't happen, so what will Starmer do?

A couple of seconds research discloses this is for collective security.
In other words is to counter racist and Islamophobic attacks.

A couple of grand of that is mine....
January is always a booster month as Self Assessment wants final amount for 2024/5 and cash on account for 25/26.

No it's because of some nefarious Labour scheme.
How much more of a surplus is there in January than normal? That's the more reasonable assessment than December.
In 2025, January's was £14.5Bn, which was itself unusually high. I can't find 2024s because the search hits are drowned out by right wing hyperbole about us all getting ripped off, despite the £100Bn annual deficit.

Strange media on both sides fail to mention this as it enables them to spin stories to suit their respective agendas

I presume this is from the additional tax burdens on UK.
Something doesn't add up or there is a huge lag on the crash that is coming and bleeding the tax payer now.
We have fewer jobs more unemployment, crashing building industry. These are not positive indicators of a booming industry
Someone is lying
