Now cut taxes
TAX cuts for businesses should mean lower prices for customers and more jobs created.
So Jeremy Hunt is right to target those next week.
Hiking corporation tax from 19p to 25p last year was crazy, damaging our competitiveness at a crucial time.
The Chancellor should reverse it in Wednesday’s mini-Budget.
He should make “full expensing” permanent too, letting firms write off investments in tech or buildings against tax.
And freezing alcohol duty, plus extending business rates relief for pubs, will prevent yet more boozers closing.

But families need direct help.
A mooted tweak to inheritance tax is a sideshow.
Workers pay far too much income tax.
We just don’t believe their pain cannot be alleviated without fuelling inflation.

Make that your priority, Chancellor.
It’s TikToxic
NEVER has social media been as dangerous.
Anti-Jewish hate has soared 919 per cent on Twitter.
But TikTok is worse.
Videos attacking Israel and praising Hamas are pumped out to gullible young fools who get their news barely anywhere else.
No wonder they talk so vacuously about “genocide” in Gaza.
Or that they are so keen to join Islamist mobs and romanticise as “resistance fighters” the monsters behind October 7’s sickening murder spree.
Eighty years after the Holocaust, TikTok has made violent anti-Semitism fashionable, bringing new terror to Jews.
Some dolts are even buying into Bin Laden’s lunatic rants and rebranding 9/11 as an anti-imperialist triumph.
We applaud Sacha Baron Cohen and other celebs for confronting the site’s bosses over creating “the biggest anti-Semitic movement since the Nazis”.
If they won’t stop TikTok spreading dangerous evil, Governments must.
Left’s lost it
THE Left is going to surreal lengths now trying to disprove that Hamas uses Gaza’s al-Shifa hospital as a base. Why?
In 2014 Amnesty International, no friend of Israel, published detailed reports of the terrorists torturing enemies there.
The Washington Post called it a “headquarters for Hamas leaders”.
US intelligence says it is a “command and control” post for the terrorists.
Above ground, they skulk in hospitals and schools they know Israel is far less likely to bomb.
Now inside al-Shifa, Israeli troops have already found AK-47s, a booby-trapped truck, a large tunnel entrance and two dead Israeli hostages.
Yet still the BBC makes excuses, still speculates those Kalashnikovs may be innocently used by hospital “security”.
Except Hamas supplies those guards.
The desperation to discredit Israel at any cost has become a mental disorder.
It is rife at the BBC.
