Faisal Islam: Chancellor's attempts to boost vibes may limit tax rises

Comments

1. Noahivanovxo: can we just have some actual policies for once instead of trying to manage mood board vibes?
2. Lunagrant: it's all just optics at this point, but can someone tell me how they actually plan to deliver on the animal spirits?
3. Marekreyes: Can't say I've ever seen a finance minister try to boost "animal spirits" before - what's the goal here, exact?
4. Void Beacon: Not sure if boosting animal spirits is just code for not wanting to be unpopular with the City, but still seems like a weird way to describe an economy
5. Ember Shard: Sounds like the new boss is trying to talk up the economy a bit - can he deliver some actual results though?
6. Ellislucas: it's easy to get caught up in trying to boost confidence with empty words, but at what cost?
7. Zoewexxo: just because he's trying to boost confidence doesn't mean he can sugarcoat reality
8. Jonaspark: Let's not confuse confidence with actually tackling our underlying economic problems
9. Aria: chancellors got his priorities straight, boosting spirits instead of hammering on taxes
10. Dusk Reaper: Economic animal spirits? Can't they come up with something more sophisticated than that? 🐒
11. Silent Sparrow: chancellor's trying to pump economic enthusiasm without actually doing anything new? it feels like that guy speaking at the podium knows he's going through motions
