@whizkidd Specifically, Indian cities are a nightmare precisely because so many people have been lifted out of poverty and can now afford an urban standard of living. Moreover the infrastructure in the video is largely colonial (except metro)
The statement from Rachel Reeves speech that really got me was
"Each of us must do our bit"
But what for?
Why are we doing our bit?
For a sky rocketing welfare bill, billions wasted on Net Zero, crime rates through the roof, billions on interest payments and public services which are getting worse.
The counter argument is that, this is caused by the government not having enough money to do this.
But I totally disagree - this government has chosen policies which are grounded in envy rather than strong fiscal logic.
They've created a culture in the UK in which achievement is not celebrated but punished.
In business, culture is important to attract, retain and nurture talent - a country has a culture as well and ours is getting worse.
I feel like I'm watching a train wreck in slow motion and despite labour promising in their manifesto that taxes for working people won't be raised - today, felt like the pre cursors for that.
Unfortunately, good, decent, working people are the ones that suffer due to governments incompetence
