FFS don't mention the NHS, or eggs or tomatoes because despite the fact we took 18 billion more in taxes than expected we can't spend it on public services because we're going to give that aways as a tax cut to billionaires.

On a lighter note HMG's advice through the DEFRA Minister Dr Thérèse Coffey (Chemistry but she does love to use the honorific) was to buy more turnips because of the salad shortages but now there's a problem...
