Boris Johnson moans over Keir Starmer asking questions about children starving in Yemen

· March 3, 2021 ·

Boris Johnson moaned that Keir Starmer wouldn't stop asking questions about mass deaths and starving children in Yemen - and the UK's sales of billions in arms to Saudi Arabia to use in the conflict. As the government prepares to slash aid to help those devastated by the brutal civil war by 50%, the PM complained that the Labour leader didn't ask him questions about how well the Covid-19 roadmap was going. He said: "He can't even address a question on the issues of the hour. He could have asked anything about the Coronavirus Pandemic, instead he's concentrated his questions entirely to the interests of the people of Yemen." Starmer pressed Boris Johnson on whether arms sales to Yemen should be suspended. Opening PMQs , Sir Keir said: "Does the Prime Minister agree with President Biden that the sale of arms that could be used in the war in Yemen should be suspended?" The Prime Minister replied: "Ever since the tragic conflict in Yemen broke out this country has … [Read more...] about Boris Johnson moans over Keir Starmer asking questions about children starving in Yemen

Boris Johnson’s offer to host all of Euro 2020 welcomed by European football chiefs with 10 English stadiums on standby

· March 3, 2021 ·

BORIS JOHNSON'S offer to stage the whole of Euro 2020 has been welcomed by European football chiefs. Wembley is already due to stage SEVEN games at the tournament, including all three of England’s opening group matches, both semi-finals and the July 11 final. But the PM’s invitation, exclusively revealed by The Sun , has opened the way for the ultimate summer of football across the country. One source told The Sun: “It is great for us that England is so keen to play its part this summer.” European football’s governing body Uefa plans to confirm the schedule for this summer’s delayed tournament by April 7. That is the date Euro bosses have ordered the current 12 planned host cities to confirm their willingness to host games. But Uefa is demanding that ALL hosts commit to staging games with fans inside grounds. The Government announced last week that all Covid restrictions will be ended from June 21, opening the way for Wembley to allow a 90,000 full house … [Read more...] about Boris Johnson’s offer to host all of Euro 2020 welcomed by European football chiefs with 10 English stadiums on standby

Budget 2021: 11 surprises hidden in the small print from ‘NHS cut’ to Brexit

· March 3, 2021 ·

Rishi Sunak today presented yet another £65billion of Covid support in his annual Budget. The Chancellor extended most schemes until September and gave businesses another shot in the arm as they wait for a vaccine. But all that help comes at a cost, and we're not just talking about a hike in Corporation Tax. A stealth tax hike on working Brits will raise £8bn a year and schemes could run out in September while 2million are still furloughed. The Budget speech is always a triumphant affair, burying the awkward details to a few lines or none at all. To get a real feel for what's going on, you must read the hundreds of pages of documents slipped out when the Chancellor sits down. We're still trawling through the mammoth pile of Budget documents, including analysis from the Office for Budget Responsibility watchdog (OBR). But here are the biggest surprises in the small print that have leaped out at us so far. 1. NHS spending overall looks set to be cut Rishi Sunak said … [Read more...] about Budget 2021: 11 surprises hidden in the small print from ‘NHS cut’ to Brexit

· March 3, 2021 ·

Border disruption with the EU, caused in part by Brexit, is expected to cause an economic hit in the first three months of this year, according to Whitehall's fiscal watchdog. In its latest economic forecast, the Office for Budget Responsibility said it expected "near-term disruption" to trade in goods with the EU to reduce gross domestic product (GDP), a measure of the size of the economy, by 0.5% in the first quarter of 2021. The OBR said its previous forecasts had "assumed a smooth transition" to the new trading relationship with the EU, with it expected traders would be given "time to adjust". A special edition of the Sky News Daily podcast will be available from 7pm. Budget 2021: All the key points But it noted that, while the UK had "delayed or reduced" the application of new border checks until later this year, the bloc had "applied full customs requirements due on exports from Great Britain to the EU" since the end of the Brexit transition period … [Read more...] about Budget 2021: EU border disruption to cause economic hit – and Brexit deal to see ‘4% shrinkage in long-term’
