At the time of writing it’s apparent that the rudder of HMS Great Britain has fell off the ship, and we are heading for uncharted waters.
With our absent Prime Minister and his government keeping the expensive lights on when in reality there’s no one home, the finances of the country are careering out of control.
The economy is heading for a crash, inflation is rising and there is no room to manoeuvre in raising taxes according to the promise of Chancellor. Let’s see at the next fiscal event in spring if that holds true.
As I’ve always said even before this inept government conned the country into voting for ‘change’ we would be bankrupt before they leave office. This is historically proven and sadly the way Labour are conducting their vision less brand of government, I won’t be proven wrong.
Under this criteria, I’m sad for all of us. Just scratching the surface, the antics of immediate asset raiding of farmers, over taxing schools, stopping new hospitals, and stealing off the pensioners along with the betraying of their hollow promise for compensating Waspi, they have proven that they cannot be trusted or have any integrity.
The battalions of hesitantly nervous backbenchers reading their whips handout scripts on social media, with the same curtain backdrop look reminiscent of a hostage video but who is being held hostage?
I don’t think the Treasury team have worked out that by giving non productive pay rises to the public sector it will not kick start the economy but just drive up inflation; which is already happening.
The hike of NI which incidentally the Tories wanted to abolish in more recent solvent times, is causing unemployment to rise and a rapid atrophy of the economy, as employers are not hiring and redundancies and insolvencies are starting to rise.
Labour have never grasped the basics. The public sector is paid for by the private sector; upset that balance and you have our wealth creators leaving the country for more amenable tax destinations and the shrinkage of the business left behind. Ms Reeves will have to increase taxes.
LATEST MEMBERSHIP OPINION:
Reeves has been compared to Scrooge due to her National Insurance hike GETTY / PA In the new year we will see the second Presidency of Donald Trump. It’s already got off to a bad start between our great nations.
The now Labour governments collective historic personal character assassination of ‘The Donald’ has already created much discord and now installing Mandy as the Ambassador in Washington has inflamed our negative position.
I often wonder who is advising the government but I’m over thinking it; It’s not that deep, it’s just jobs for the boys.
We’re seeing it in public appointments from the cabinet office through to the halls of Whitehall and number 10. Cronyism is at an all new height and it’s evident in our Orwellian circumstances that some are more equal than others.
It just erodes the faith and quality in public life. Next year we will see the stalling of local elections as an excuse not to face the electorate for fear of the domino effect of local Labour meltdown then the inevitable backbencher unrest, causing the revolving door of No 10 to unstick.
It’s also inevitable that whatever was promised at the GE to the students and now forgotten along with all the other promises of the laughable ‘fully costed manifesto’ that went out of print the day after the election, a new quota of voters will be needed; 16 year olds.
Labour should be very afraid of uncorking that suffrage bottle as it tends to only work well for opposition parties, not ones in government and especially when there’s impeding unemployment at the end of the educational process and lack of aspiration due to fiscal incompetence of the Labour government in office.
There will be no place to hide in a few years time when this vacuous government seeks re-election.
Will we see this government firing up the TR7 instead of the Tesla on the roads of progression as we may drive back into the 70s.
You could always tell a ‘real 70s TR7 ‘ as there were dimples a meter apart on the boot lip where the owners pushed them after frequently breaking down and they often came in brown.
The public were promised a Blairite and not a Corbynite Labour government and we never thought the country would be in this position less than 6 months later.
You never know, the way things are going you might see a Corbynista driving that TR7 yet.
