And helped his father-in-laws investment into oil. By dishing out 100 knew oil licences. Not to forget Sunrats investment into Moderna vaccine. And more. He/they are parasites.
Nope! Even if they get zero MPs, the right wing media will continue to broadcast whatever bollocks they say. Look at Farage! How often was he on question time? Not even a bloody MP!
Tory MP’s jumping ship to Reform are really only looking after themselves. They want to remain on the Wefminster gravy train, so would i at 94K a year plus expenses!
Perhaps someone will ask them what they did to reduce inflation. Public sector spending doesn't count: what prices would go up if we gave the public sector workers a rise? We suffered cost-push inflation through profiteering.
The point that Rishi doesnt want to make clear is that prices arent down as a result of lower inflation. Prices still went up by 10% or whatever the peak was, they havent come down and are simply continuing to rise at a lower rate.
In addition public sector workers are paid by the tax payer. For every pound given in a wage increase the government get back 20% immediately in income tax. Then everything of the remaining 80% spent on anything that isnt food, childrens clothes or books another 20% God forbid they buy fuel for the car, cigarettes or alcohol and even bigger lump goes the goverments way. Public sector pay rises cost very little in real terms. I don't understand why more people aren't saying it.
Hello Peter. Yet another excellent video showing the total madness that the country is going through. And I thoroughly enjoy the way you say a very heartfelt “bollocks” each time they spout another piece of rubbish. It really gets the point over! And saves me having to contribute to the swear box. Please keep up your hard work - it is greatly appreciated.
They turned a blind eye to every single UK price surge in every sector of the economy, they at no time questioned one single price rise of any energy provider, or any of the massive food price rises. While all the time raking in tens of £Billions from all of the vast extra tax revenues, from all of the price increases through both the fuel Levys and VAT?
In England. Scotland's water, Scottish Water, is in public hands thanks to the SNP who thankfully were voted in at the time UK Labour in Scotland were starting the process of selling it off. Therefore, Scotland doesn't have the same problem as England, where the private companies are dumping raw sewage into England's rivers and sea. 😊
My daughter has just finished first year .She aid to me her friends have a political debate, all differenrt opinions. But one thing they all agreed on was .We hat sunak
Yes your right, if you refer to the RPI. However, the real cost of inflation is not only based on the RPI it only means that the cost of products may cost less in the medium or longer term. I will refer you to the Sky news that showed the real inflation today. Also If wages were rising with inflation in the last 13 years then will there be as many food banks and charities helping the people who are unable to eat? What I find unbelievable is that people with carriers, who in the past could afford to buy their own houses can only afford to pay rent in the cheapest area's. So yes the wage rises this year were above inflation, but you have to take the wage rises from the last 10 years to get a clear picture of where the working wages are really at.
is it because no-one can afford to actually buy anything?Only having enough money to basically eat and pay housing bills?The Govt saying they will allow you to keep £12500 of the money you earn,the rest belongs to them,thus increasing their tax burdens.
Mr Cauldwell had an interesting take on what Mr Sunack did during the pandemic that contributed to the inflation hike, which may have economic credibility.
Inflation is down for all the worse reasons. Most people have no money to spend...and that means business is selling less, so people are going to lose their jobs and unemployment rises, the work places close down, and deprivation sets in. As tory rule always ends. I remember a little shopping mall of 18 shops snd 11 of them were empty and abandoned in 1990s. Now I'm seeing empty shops even in Central London. There's less than a million vacancies for work. And they talk about small boats and scroungers on the dole. Only 5 million people depressed? I don't know anyone who isn't!
If inflation was caused by higher gas and electric prices and food prices. Why did companies increase their profits which surely has nothing to do with Ukraine. It was purely profiteering by companies during a cost of living crisis.
Bear in mind that for every £1 given as a pay rise around 60p comes back as tax in one form or another, so any claimed amount required to fund an increase in pay is actually only 40% of that figure.
Any attempt to insult the publics intelligence is doomed to fail, I mean millions of people think that reform want to change things for the better rather than being just a bunch of gammon faced tories who think that poor and vulnerable people should suffer more than they have done over the last 14 years.
It's not just that the BoE sets rates. The other things to remember here are that inflation is calculated as a mean average over a 12-month period, so anything before the start of that time period (in this case ultra-high inflation at the beginning of 2022) is no longer included in the figures. The second thing is that inflation was so high anyway that most economists were confident it would come down on its own as things settled down a little bit. It's correct to say it has come down but it is misleading to suggest that the government had anything to do with it.
It’s just gets worse and worse, thank goodness we can vote green here in Bristol. Look out for independent candidates or green Tories are toast and they know it. Barb
Public sector pay rises do affect inflation in my opinion because it adds to government borrowing, which will push the pound down, thus giving imported inflation. Or it can come out in other ways such as mortgage rates going up because the money markets are concerned we are living beyond our means. What also happens is the private sector then has to put up wages too. Governments do control inflation because their spending influences the exchange rate and also the mortgage rates, which are determined by the interest rate at which the UK has to borrow at.
