Is the cost of living killing Britain’s birth rate?
GB News presenter Miriam Cates is in Brighton to speak to the public about why the UK’s birth rate is plummeting.
Researchers said soaring house prices and shrinking living space were increasingly stopping Britons from having the number of children they actually want. The stark warning comes as Britain’s fertility rate has slumped to a record low of just 1.41 children per woman – far below the level needed to sustain the population.
Experts say the steep decline is altering the age structure of the country, which is threatening long-term economic growth and placing an unsustainable financial burden on public services. At the same time, more than eight in ten Britons say the cost and availability of family homes is making it harder for people to marry and start families, according to the research published by the Family Education Trust.
Nearly three-quarters said the type and size of housing available had a major impact on decisions about having children. And almost two-thirds said improving access to affordable family-sized housing would encourage more people to marry and have children.

Suella Braverman has issued a damning verdict on Andy Burnham’s suggestion that Britain could “go all the way” and rejoin the EU.
Speaking to Katherine Forster, GB News’ Chief Political Correspondent, on Chopper’s Political Podcast, Mrs Braverman said the Prime Minister has “never respected Brexit and he actually wants to undo it”.
She slammed his words as “an affront to democracy” and “a slap in the face to British patriots”.

Nigel Farage hits out at Rachel Reeves as Reform UK set out vision to help British business
Nigel Farage has hit out at Rachel Reeves as the Reform UK leader set out his vision for helping businesses in Britain.
Speaking at a press conference, the Reform UK leader said he feared for the future of small business, saying: ‘Everything about this Budget will be to attack hard work, attack saving, attack aspiration.
‘But if Rachel Reeves does make changes to dividend income… I fear the flight of business, the lack of investment in this country will get significantly worse.’

I had a nice little engineering design consultancy, science/robotics etc. invested £25k in it, but Rishy Sunaks IR35 put a stop to it, I have my own invention I wanted to develop, seemed like a good way to do it financially, balancing time, money etc.
Can’t see much future in the UK now, took a full time job in spacecraft R&D in the UK, it’s taken over my life time wise and could only afford to do it because I’ve paid off my mortgage, don’t have a car loan, so can live on an abysmal salary for a bit.
Getting US agencies offering me 3x 4x salaries in space, robotics engineering etc, UK agencies still contact me asking if I can unblock toilets and use a jetwash because I’m an “astronautics engineer”!

The UK economy officially collapsed in December 2021. Ever since that month debt surpassed 100% of GDP. Meaning the government is spending more money than the country is producing and it's rising every year. It will never go below zero so the pound has officially collapsed.

the country will be sold off a piece at a time after corrupt individuals like sunak have siphoned off the bulk for themselves and then eventually when people are starving the population will be put in factories and fields as cheap labour to supply wealthier countries with a growing middle class such as china/india under a new regime to pay back the debt.

Government and the Civil Service, the WEF Puppets are Totally out of Control, Bent on Destroying the UK because of Brexit and our Weak and Useless Politicians/MPs that Have No Idea about Running a Country…. Our Royal Family is just as Corrupt and Useless for the People of the UK and Want the UK back in the EU with King C being King of the EU…..
Why are we Spending so Much on Funding the Proxy War in Ukraine taking on More Debt…There Should be a Law Stopping Government from Spending What They Have Not Got… Its a F..king Disgrace……
Anyone who Votes Tory, Labour, Lib Dem or Green in the Next Election Deserve What They Get…..
People Wake Up…. the UK Does Not Have a Real Democracy… we would be Far Better Off with an Elected Lord Protector with the Power to Over Rule our Corrupt Government on Bad Costly Policies and Putting a Stop to Government Over Spending increasing the Country's Debt CAUSING MORE INFLATION and Debasing our Currency/Money….
The Lord Protector must be a Man of the People for the People,,, so No Politicians, Top Civil Servants ect including any members of their families must never be allowed…..
Everyone Should Vote in the Next Election… either vote for None of the Above ie Reform UK or Spoil you Vote ballot Paper maybe write Lord Protector across it,, to show your disgust with the current Political System and Corrupt Parties….

Enough is enough….is enough! Time to hit the brakes on spending. A fortune was wasted on COVID lockdowns. This is a national emergency. We should be on a war footing. The Conservatives and Labour need to be honest with us all. You cannot have it all on the never never. Like Mrs T said you have to earn it for UK plc. Reduce Corporation Tax and encourage small businesses to grow!

1.5 billion goes on illegal immigration and asylum seekers. We build roughly 200,000 new homes a year, immigration is set to hit 1 million this year-there’s your housing shortage getting worse, waiting list for NHS worse, they’ll never come down
The government loves high prices = more tax and VAT for their coffers
This country is screwed all the parties are the same

Debt and interest costs are making the Elite more wealthy, their plan is working well.
Most of government spending is basically corrupt access to tax payers money.

Cutting taxes starves the public finances so less gets spent on public services and less money goes to councils. Before these figures came out, Rishi as chancellor, had orchestrated the printing of £500 billion of new money and borrowed £200 billion from institutions such as pension funds, all during the pandemic. That money ended up in the bank accounts of wealthy property holders, mortgage lenders, landlords, energy companies and supermarkets due to furlough payments and defaulted Covid-19 loans. Companies were being advised by solicitors to go bust immediately after receiving those Covid-19 loans. Rishi was warned against this but chose to ignore the advice. Very little of that £700 billion ended up with the people who really needed it, but those same working class people, who didn't get any of that money, are now having to pay it back via their taxes, at super high interest rates due to the Bank of England being forced to up interest rates to stave of our highest in Europe inflation rate. Inflation that has been caused by printing too much new money! You couldn't make it up, by the way, just for the commentators, Labour had absolutely nothing to do with any of this so why are they bringing Labour into the argument 🤔🤔
