He just said there will be no austerity under Labour. What? My standard of living has fallen more in the last 6 months than at any time since Harold Wilson's Government in the 70s. My spending power is down by 15% by my calculation and I do keep careful records. And that is before increases in energy and telecoms already notified for this April.

Sunak didn'T do sh!t nanny - name one action he introduced to reduce inflation

and sage is right.. continual attack on your power as a citizen from what is now essentially a uniparty

they are coming for all of it... we are firmly mired in the brown stuff now and ready for a push over the edge .. think escalation in ukraine for example or a much bigger migrant crisis  ..  gonna have to pay somehow ... sovereign default has it's legs crossed on an armchair nursing a decent dram and just waiting for us to walk through the door and take a seat at the table .. further into the abyss we head

You are putting words into sagemoneys post

He's drawing a distinction and saying Labour have done
him more harm in 6 months than tories in 14 years
As he was forever defending them.

Love to see his records, must have been laying Liverpool.

Yeah well I agree with that tbh ... you're still to see the effects of the these past few months - takes a good few months to weedle through but essentially they've just carried on where conservatives left off... 

the peoples party my a$$.. it's tough pointing out the obvious sometimes and you take flak but I do not believe these recent/current govs have the peoples best interest at heart .. it looks a lot like baby steps lockstep to get us all in a fiddle ...

grinding between taxation and inflation - new system needed - old one totally bu88ered

The whole world is Capitalist including China and Russia, Stammer -Trump ,Farage all want us to believe in their cherished broken system, broken especially if you are poor and live from week to week with no certainty ever in any low paid work. Truth and some of you will still deny the facts before your eyes, some have worked and still deny the obvious. Capitalism does not work for the poor only the insider traders.

I know yhtl - he also said the other day that inflation under this gov has already hit which it has not - inflation takes time to come through ( witness covid monetary expansion and the old ' transitory bollox from top names/bankers/Powell/Yellen/boe's george who all knew damn well such expansion would result in harsh price rises - that alone was enuff to set alarm bells ringing imo but it took a good while to come thru after may 2020 cares act)..

We're still feeling the effects of the past 5 years instigated through tories and central banking snakery) but it will get worse still and he won't be wrong in about 6 months or so I guess - there's still a lot of inflation out there - food especially

What's even worse is the current party's effect on growth in the medium term - doom spiral

We need to refocus our economy from the death spiral of brexit

That 4% on gdp would be pretty handy year on year.
