To the degree “Britain is finished” it’s because we have become one of the most anti-wealth, anti-success, anti-growth nanny states in the developed world.
The nation that birthed the Industrial Revolution, invented modern capitalism, governed 25% of the world’s population and invented swaths of technologies that the world relies on today… is suddenly afraid of a little inequality.
The truth is however that we don’t have rampant inequality at all.
By all measures we are a normal economy…
- Wealth of the top 1% has been stable for 40+ years. There’s no data that says it’s “out of control”
- Wealth at the bottom 50% is in line with the rest of the world’s major economies.
- Our Gini-coefficient is middle of the pack for the G20 nations.
So… Where are we going wrong?
- Our economic freedom index rating is falling. It shows that economic freedom is down significantly because we are over-taxed and over-regulated.
- The ratio of government spending to GDP is sky high (45% of GDP). We’re losing our free market system because almost half the economy is government spending NOT market driven spending.
- Taxation is at an all time high point. It’s wildly progressive relative to our past and our peers. The top rate of tax kicks in at 3x the average while the USA has a lower top rate that kicks in at 7x the average. Minimum wage is pegged at 60% of the median - one of the highest in the world. All of this is to say that we’re so safeguarded from danger that we can’t actually get ahead!
- Wage suppression through taxation cliffs is holding back productivity.
- We have socialist ideologues in senior roles across government who LOVE the idea of the nanny state. They think economic growth is government growth. They think it’s dangerous for wealth to be in the hands of individuals. They think “wealthy people” are people who “have savings”.
- we have a government that is painfully unaware that new technology erodes the value of jobs at the bottom and increased competition through open-door migration suppresses wages too.
We’re trying to tax the country into growth. It doesn’t work.
Gary wants to create equality by making the country poorer and it doesn’t benefit anyone.
Instead of worrying about inequality we should be focused on making the country richer and raising living standards.
Father has epic response to this lady 😭🔥
“I also have five boys.”
“Boys, when you go out into school, don’t stab any other kids. You think you guys can do that?”
I don’t support rioting from anyone but when BLM did it, Labour said that MPs should speak to the black community and listen to the concerns.
Following the scenes in Belfast, has any Labour MP mentioned speaking to white, working class communities to listen to their concerns?
So we cannot travel to Somalia because of the Somalian people, sound advice.
So if Somalia is so dangerous due to the Somalian people, why are we letting the Somalian people come here?!
Can someone please enlighten me.
I want to know exactly what that Somalian scumbag is doing in our country.
How did he arrive? On what visa? Is he working? On benefits? Living in social housing/a migrant hotel? Criminal record? Who authorised it?
Demand answers.
I am doing that in Parliament.
A Somalian has been arrested following the attempted beheading.
A Restore Britain Government would end all immigration from Somalia, review all existing visas and deport all Somalians who should not be in Britain.
Enough.
For those mainly Pakistani men who have inflicted the very worst pain imaginable on innocent British children, please know this.
There will come a day when the power of the British state that concealed your atrocious crimes for so very long is turned against you.
It will be swift. It will be brutal. It will be severe.
Because if Restore Britain gets a sniff of power, there will be a reckoning. I promise you that.
We will show you the same mercy you showed our girls.
Your race or religion will not protect you any longer.
A message will be sent that is heard right across the world.
If you rape our children, you will pay for it - and you will pay for it with everything.
That is what Restore Britain will do.
Leftists don't believe a Nazi can ever change but they think that an immigrant who beheads someone only needs like 6 months in jail and he'll come out acting like Mr. Rogers
Never stop remembering Henry Nowak, a good young English boy full of joy, with his whole life ahead of him, who was killed by an armed immigrant and left to die by the woke English police.
Decades telling British people that having kids is low status. Telling girls that to get pregnant is the worst thing that can happen. Social pressure to get half of all young people to go to university to then become heavily indebted, with it being a total waste of 3-5 years of their prime years.
Decades terrifying people that the world is going to burn up. Decades telling people the world is overpopulated and therefore immoral to have children—but this doesn’t apply to non Western countries. Decades of an economic system that prioritises putting people in work over family formation.
Yeah. Guess what? People stop having babies.
“Arsenal have been blocking the opponent’s goalkeeper all season long, they would NEVER be on top of the league if we disallow these goals!”
