1/ Todayโs Spending Review delivers on the priorities of the British people.
This thread covers ๐๐ผ๐บ๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ป๐ผ๐๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ from Departments across Government. #SR20



The new 3-year long ยฃ2.9 billion Restart programme will provide intensive, tailored support to over 1million unemployed people and help them find work #SR20

We'll grow and evolve our sectors particularly those most affected by Covid-19 which include culture, sport, civil society and the creative industries. #SR20


This will allow them to do more to fight against climate change - and connect people with green spaces - by planting trees, restoring peatland, creating habitats, and investing in National Parks. #SR20



Next year, the core @DHSCgovuk budget will grow by ยฃ6.6bn, allowing us to deliver 50,000 more nurses and 50 million more general practice appointments. #SR20

This includes the largest prison building programme in over a century and an over 50% increase in maintenance funding to improve prisons and courts. #SR20


We are decarbonising transport through record investment in electric vehicle charging and maintaining transport services to support the economy as we recover from Covid. #SR20

Yesterday, of course, Jeremy Corbyn launched his Peace and Justice Project, to much excitement on here. Laudable goals too:
Take on Murdoch โ
Green New Deal โ
Support for food banks โ
Speed up vaccine delivery in developing countries โ
That's all excellent.
I'm not sure if anyone can argue with those four aims: they're irrefutable and all massively important. You bet I'd like to see Labour doing likewise; you bet I'm frustrated that it's so quiet on all of it.
HOWEVER...
Contained within the announcement was exactly the same selective blindness which makes the entire thing all too easy to shoot down - and again, means Corbyn is pretty unlikely to persuade anyone who's not already persuaded.
The sort of blindness which makes me tear my hair out.
Peace and Justice - sounds great, doesn't it? So why did the Peace and Justice project proudly announce the support of a corrupt criminal not remotely interested in either of those
Rafael Correa, former President of Ecuador. Let's run through his record, starting with the positives.
Slashed poverty from 36.7% to 22.5% โ
Reduced inequality from 0.55 to 0.47 on the Gini index โ
So far, so good. Except, um...

We\u2019re delighted to have the backing of Rafael Correa, who cut poverty and inequality by record levels as president of Ecuador.
