When a conservative says they are going to cut taxes. That doesn’t mean you.
Truss totally misread the room. Her economic was a disaster from the the word go. The tax cuts would benefited a select few (read as rich). It as short-sighted plan that tanked the pound. She knew going in the cuts would not work and now six weeks after having asked by the late Queen Elizabeth to form a new government, Truss has called it quits. Which means that King Chuckles will have that pleasure now. Let's the next person does a better job.
Awww.... butt still smarting over the whupping you guys received two years ago... AwwwwShe has more balls than our Potato. He should take her lead.
I’m annoyed with Rishi Sunak, but I suppose he’s the best of the bunch regarding financial matters.
could be. I heard her tribe were a small group of far right Conservative Brexiters who know one else could be bothered with.They’re saying it’s a dastardly plot by the Remainers to rejoin the EU.
Yes, a policy can be an extreme far rightwing radical one. What are you, an idiot?So now fiscal policies are “far right extremism”?
Good grief you people are dumb.
The 'cradle to grave' welfare state has been dead for about 40 years.The UK is in serious trouble as it faces many challenges in its future.
The population voted in favor of Brexit and the axe fell during the pandemic quarantines. People(laborers) got deported and logistics went into the dumpster.
On top of this, the UK has enjoyed trading supremecy because of her Ports and which was a huge section of the UK economy (with joining the EU this was an opportunity, but not much of one)....but with Brexit the sheer volume of new trade agreements needed was staggering and many never came to fruition. The ones that did come to fruition were poorly crafted. Everything from fishing to farming is tightly controlled in the UK. Well supposedly. What did come about was that foreign fishing fleets enjoyed more freedoms than domestic fishing. Where fishing is not extremely important it is demonstrative of the agreements put into place. The pipeline from Russia to UK currently sits unused and unusable. They were warned that Nordstrom 2 was a bad decision...but oh well, advice freely given is often discounted to irrelevance.
There's a huge mess of an economy and their "cradle to grave" social welfare programs that is horribly expensive...especially with the latest generation of entitled snobs using every service imaginable and contributing nothing.

Liz was originally a Remainer. She just hoped onto whatever wagon she thought would bring her the most. She liked best the super rich who she apparently socialises with, This economic policy was not for Brexit. It is simply that according to the someone at the BBC she belonged to a very small group of far right Brexiters who everyone else kept away from. She was not other Conservatives choice. That was Sunac but she was voted for by the members of the Conservative Party. They are the people who give it regular money.Why would Brexiteers be far right, when the majority of voters for it were older or working class?
And even they were patronised and mocked for their position.
When a democrat says your taxes won't increase, have faith the prices increases on everything else and the accompanying taxes will more than make up for it.
