Reeves dumps the big pile of shite on the doorstep of every small business in Britain, then just forgets about it and moves on with her life. Salary safe, job safe. No concerns about paying the bills in the Reeves household, or indeed any of the civil servants who devised this skip fire of a budget.
They don’t care. They don’t understand, but more important they just don’t care.
Straight out of university, work for some anonymous Labour MP, maybe a think tank or a charity if we’re feeling adventurous. Then straight into life as a backbench MP or some random civil servant in the Treasury. How many have run a business? Created wealth? Generated jobs? Done anything?! SOD ALL.
It’s easy looking at the spreadsheets. Thinking oh a dividend rate rise here, or freezing that threshold - that’ll cover the numbers needed to hike up welfare. There are VERY real world consequences to all of these decisions.
Businesses are still reeling from the NI changes last year. And I mean reeling. Not enormous businesses had to find £300k? Possibly more to cover these rises?
What happens then, Rachel?
Costs get passed on. Contracts stall. Hiring cancelled. Investment paused. It grinds the economy to a halt. Businesses stop spending money. Redundancies. OBVIOUSLY.
How can they not understand this? Honestly? I cannot fathom the sheer vastness of their incompetence. All of this to fund those who choose not to work. Leaves a real sour taste in the mouth, doesn’t it?
Running a business is hard work, bloody hard work. It doesn’t just happen, and it doesn’t just work. It takes years of long days and sleepless nights. All that, with lots and lots of risk. There is no backup or a safety net. It works, or it doesn’t work. It’s brutal. I’m sorry to say that the vast majority of my MP colleagues simply do not understand that.
It is overwhelmingly depressing.
The ONLY way to get the economy firing is to reduce tax, reduce the size of the state and let businesses do what they do best - make money.
And actually, if you let them keep more of it? They’ll do more. Work more. Pay more tax.
THAT is how you grow the economy. That is the ONLY way.
Kier Starmer has got to go and whilst all of this is happening Britain is rotting from its core. I’m not hearing much from Sadiq Khan who also in my opinion has to go! If Britain replaces the current MP & Major of London, it may just stand a chance. We need to free both our country and its capital simultaneously from their twisted grips (putting it politely) if we are to ever rebuild Britain back to a bigger, better and more unified version of itself.
With these two at the helm, division will always be at the bow!
Secure the perimeter and cleanse from the inside…
Amount of people saying “Stay & fight”, like this is some war movie. You cant fight. You cant even protest without being called racist.
& Fight who? How? The whole country is fucked, the water companies robbed us & dumped shit in the water, you can’t swim anywhere you’ll get ill & die. The country is literally a shit hole.
The councils are bankrupt & cant even fix a pot hole & charge you council tax for the privilege of doing fuck all while robbing you.
Moneys taxed, cars taxed, petrols taxed, booze, food EVERYTHING is taxed, then if you manage to save enough money after its been taxed to buy a house you get taxed on that, then if you die and pass it to your kids that gets taxed. They literally want everything from the working man while they hide their money. Its a con, we are being conned.
& We are about to get taxed even more.
NHS is fucked. Cost of living fucked. Interest rates are fucked, & we got years of it getting worse before it gets better.
Londons a hell hole & unsafe after dark. I hate it.
The men think they are women, kids are encouraged to think about their sexuality & gender.
Our soldiers are getting stabbed.
Our police are pussies & the ones that aint get fired.
& that aint even getting started on illegal immigration, thats getting worse.
If my country ever needed me to actually fight id be there, 100%, but i ain’t gambling the lifes of my three daughters in the mean time, & even if they did survive growing up here for what? To live in a shit hole full of fucking wierdo’s. No thanks.
Where would i go? Somewhere with a backbone, a bit of sun & with less risk of your kids getting murderd, like Australia, Russia or fucking North Korea.
I whole heartedly encourage anyone with young kids that have the ability to leave to do so. Todays events in Southport have rocked me to the core, im sat here looking at my daughters feeling sad.
You can still work on trying to get your voice heard while your kids are safe.
I want my kids to live not survive.
