Worth remembering that #uk rearmament in the 1930s was not funded by further cuts in benefits - those in 1931 took place before #hmtreasury abandoned 'the no major war in ten years' assumption - this was scrapped in 1932. If #nevillechamberlain and #sirjohnsimon - the two successive chancellors of the exchequer - preferred to resort to taxes and borrowing why should not #rachelreeves - or any #labour successor - do the same this time round ?
