Harry Enfield, now you’re talking. Personal favourites are the ‘Yorkshire Man’, - it’s got everything , homophobia, racism, misogyny, they’re all there aplenty, and possibly Ulsterman. Fantastic.

101 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 What a car crash this is, she clearly has no idea of the work of her portfolio, had there ever been to many members of cabinet who are completely useless? I'd suggest not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's what always happens, shovel public money into already rich people's pockets but give everyone else just enough to seem like they actually care. Sunak's reasoning of this is that to get this money 'out quickly' to those who truly need it, it's an unavoidable by-product. Except they could've done it months ago instead of doing it now as a convenient, cynical distraction piece to save the big c**t. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cigarettes and alcohol, gambling, fake nails/eyelashes/tan, gym memberships, every streaming service going, takeaway food etc etc etc. All unnecessary and should be the first thing cut back on. The problem comes when you've cut back on all the unnecessary shite and still haven't got enough money. ..and more and more people, many in full-time employment, have reached that point already. It isn't getting any better, either. In what we are repeatedly told is a prosperous nation, that is fucking obscene. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I can't see it getting much traction until the rich folk complain because couriers aren't being paid enough to cover their costs and they can get their Amazon parcel the second they order it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aufc Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 I listened to some podcasts the other day with Gary Stevenson. Not sure if people have heard of him. He came from a poor background and managed to get into london school of economics. He then got a job with Citibank by winning a card game and went onto become their most profitable trader in the world. He did this by consistently betting that the economy would continue to perform worse whilst everyone was predicting it would improve. Anyways, he was predicting this would happen just as covid happened which was march 20. He puts it all down to the huge inequality which only got worse during covid. He is an advocate for a wealth tax which would help ease the cost of living crisis. He essentially alludes to the thought that there is not a cost of living crisis but more so an inequality crisis and until this is addressed then it will never improve. His march 20 prediction seems to be pretty spot on sadly 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
