Liz Truss; how bad will things get

How many small businesses will go under? Many are struggling with inflationary pressures. Some are now looking at very large increases in their energy costs which will be the end for some. A shop I often I go to has just closed - perhaps one of many to come.

Liz Truss has to my knowledge has not spoke about the problems many small businesses are facing in the coming months. There is no price cap on their energy costs unlike for domestic customers. I have read about some businesses facing closure. For example a fish and chip shop in Scotland which has traded for over 40 years will close soon as it would face unsustainable price increases for the energy it uses at the start of September.

I think I have read that over 1,000,000 small businesses have 9 or less staff. Where some close there will be increases in unemployment numbers which will be a cost increase for the government.

Liz should remember that many of the owners of these businesses wilol be regular Tory voters. What will some  think about when we get to the next election and some have had to close businesses that perhaps in some cases they had spent a lifetime building up?

There can be no easy answers. If the situation in the Ukraine was to be resolved soon and Russia started upping the gas it exports then things could be more easy to deal with. However, that looks unlikely. So Liz what sort of solution, if any, can you come up with to reduce the threat of many small businesses closing?

That's means the average house will have a monthly DD of £298.75



I just had a look on Cinch and you could  get a very nice Mercedes for that a month

Will she deliver her £50bn of tax cuts?
No. We will continue to pay more and more as the state gets bigger and bigger.

Will she protect the needy through this winter?
People need to take responsibility for themselves. Extra jumpers. Tape up windows etc. No more teeshirts with heating on full blast with window open.

Will her cabinet be as intellectually challenged as Johnson's?
With Gove, Hancock, Sunak and other big state advocates gone it surely cannot be worse.

Will inflation really hit 18% or will it be higher?
Depends if Bank of England does its job and puts up interest rates. Need to stop protecting those who borrowed beyond their means without calculating that interest rates can go to 10% or 20% and plan for it. If the BOE doesnt hyperinflation could follow.

How long will the recession be?
No idea.

Will we see mass bankruptcies of people as well as small businesses?
Yes

Will her NI protocol Bill trigger a trade war with the EU?
Yes if the EU wants an excuse to punish the UK for leaving

Will the NHS suffer its worst ever winter crisis?
People have to understand the NHS is broken beyond repair. Treatments stopped during the 'pandemic' and we will never catch up. Regular consultant appointments for heart patients etc have NEVER restarted and I dont think they ever will. Long term legacy of the Covid shutdown will be a decline in life expectancy.

Will half the country end up on strike?
Maybe because people have been so pampered during Covid they expect the government to bail them out. If supermarket staff and food distributors go on strike we are all in trouble.

Will her cabinet be as intellectually challenged as Johnson's?

This is ridiculous thinking, of course they're not intellectually challenged.
You don't want intellectuals with their heads in the clouds anyway. The left is awash with intellectuals.
They’re the problem. They live in a different world.

That’s why we are were we are now.

Now Liz, our current Foreign Secretary, doesn't know if France is a friend or an enemy!

How many countries does the she want us to fall out with so she can get a few claps from the Little Englanders in her party?



She might also want to remember, going into this Russian winter, that France supplies the UK with electricity

None of them are dense.
They simply pursue what is best for their own careers and to get themselves elected.
We’d do the same if we were MPs.
We wouldn’t get very far if we didn't.

Dense, is not realising what they're up to.

She would also do well to address the problem of so many stupid left wing activists in the education system, replacing them with teachers who actually teach the kids properly instead of poisoning their minds with lefty BS.

Wrong again lapsy.
Getting a habit.

The Dup being briefed by terrorists

Are you suggesting that the DUP are listening to Sinn Fein?

Man in the know

This is why i am saying to 'protect' your pathetic union,this is the depth you are stooping to.

You cannot argue coherently,only silly one liners,a typical cap doffing forelock tugger,

She's easy on the eye.
I'd rather ook at her than watch the billianaire, or the rabbit in the headlights called Starmer.

None of them will do what's necessary so I'll go for her.

Dr you need to see a doctor if you think Truss is easy o the eye.

It's more than a GP you will need.

She's just a gift to the opposition simple as that.

I predict a riot.

You joke scarecrow but I can guarantee that golf complexes in Portugal & Spain will have been inundated with enquiries from all over Northern Europe.

I've spent a few winters in the Algarve and with a VPN and a fibre connection it's very enjoyable.

White riot

How very 70s SNC.........Portugal and the Med' ,a little  timeshare Norbert ?.
Many visit the Med' and it inspires them to want see Africa/Asia and South America etc.
I could see an analogy there somewhere but I think it is quaint to revisit Portugal ,well done you.
