    For some people I would like to point out that the debt started before Brexit and has nothing to do with Brexit.

    This has nothing to do with Brexit, its the MP’s managing the people’s instructions. All useless twits only in it for themselves. Billions being spent on a proxy war and housing people who are here illegally. Borrowing will get worse as these twits cause more problems. Just wait until winter!

    Britain has a dept based economy and the more money we can borrow and the more money we owe means the richer we become as a nation. The country with the highest dept is America and America is the richest country in the world because it has the most dept.

    Tories have a policy of throwing money at problems ,but not resolving the cause of it. Hence everything is being kicked down the road and borrowing more and more despite our taxes being too high. His is now our downfall, As a country we are not a viable business we need to trade more and better. As a business we have no business plan. One example is fracking. Instead we are buying fracked gas from America at Tripple the cost and Tripple the CO 2 Same with proposed coal mines. ALL AGAINST BUSINESS SENSE JUST O COMPLY WITH INSIGNIFICANT AND UNPROVED CLIMATE CRAP.

    UK borrowing to help with electric bills and family support for cost of living payments… why not try paying people a better wage. The people will pay for this borrowing in intrest rates and higher taxes. This again is state sponsored greed. Pay a higher wage and chase down company's ripping customers off.

    Can the government dip into the the Brexit dividend funds to help counter the debt Brexit is costing the UK?

  22. @sassasins031

    "Growth" is not the answer.
    Cutting the amount of Government spending is the answer.

    I'm not surprised, with an economy that is flat with large immigration, local services under pressure and a housing bubble that seems to have the need to turn the country into one massive concrete jungle.

    They'll use the NHS struggling as a way of privatisation of certain parts of the NHS instead of looking at the problems and factors that are contributing to the problems! Great fantastic 😞.
    I never thought growing up through the 80s and 90s that this country would reach the state its in now! It just shows, that what you think are great times will never last, especially when you have no control of the direction your travelling in. 🤣🤣🤣

    What is the point of the Tories and this horrific government. We get the worst of all worlds. A Socialist Government combined with Tory entitlement and lets not get started on the industrial level of Covid related fraud and the total abdication on UK Southern Border. Unforgivable.

    Oh I wouldn't worry about it dearie. After all when the Great Reset happens we all go back to 0…then we can start all the financial madness again that nobody really understands or can qualify 🤔

Andy Burnham reacts to DEVASTATING Stourbridge fires as homes GUTTED: “Never seen anything like it”

Published

By



Andy Burnham has visited families in Stourbridge after seeing the scenes of houses devastated by fires.

The Prime Minister outlined his plans to support those affected by the destruction, as he issued a temporary ban on the sale of disposable barbecue.

The ban comes into force today.

Speaking about the fires in Stourbridge, he said: “I’ve never seen anything like it. I mean, I dealt with wildfires in Greater Manchester, but nothing on this scale. I’ve never seen scenes like this in Britain, where you just see a whole house gutted, smouldering.

“And I met one of the families whose house had gone up in that in that way, so you can imagine how distressing that is for for them, and you feel for them and their kids, and not to go elsewhere.

“You know, it’s just unbelievably devastating for people in this in this position. So that’s why I’m here. I just wanted to show that, you know, we’re on the ground.

“We understand how difficult this is for everybody, and we will put in place the support to help people get back to where they should be as soon as possible.”

We now live in GASLIT BRITAIN

Published

Mark Littlewood says “we now live in gaslit Britain” after it emerged the Home Office published a guide for illegal migrants on how “not to rape women”.

It is just one of the resources available in a collection titled: “Understanding behaviours and expectations in the UK: a guide for asylum seekers”.

Posters and information on rape, the age of consent and child abuse are among the guides to help asylum seekers “understand what is expected when living in the UK”.

The guidance highlights child rape is illegal “even if they look older” or if “it is allowed in another country”.

Speaking to Patrick Christys on GB News, political commentator Mark Littlewood said: “This pamphlet is extraordinary. And the reason I find it so extraordinary and disturbing is if you need that pamphlet, I don’t want you anywhere near my country.”

A Home Office spokesperson told GB News: “We expect everyone who comes to the UK to abide by our laws.

“If they do not, they will face consequences, including the refusal of their asylum claim and removal from the UK.

“Returns of failed asylum seekers have reached their highest level since 2010 under this Government.”
