Watch as Will Kensington expresses concern about the state of the UK, arguing that Downing Street is no longer a place of power but has instead become Britain’s most expensive Airbnb.
This comes as Andy Burnham is set to become the UK’s seventh Prime Minister in a decade, with seemingly no one challenging the “King of the North” for the country’s top job.

Try and do anything here in Britain and the burocrats will create a rule to stop you that's the real reason why we have zero growth and it's been going on for over 50 years.

Either tax the rich or see if you can turn an angry mob onto immigrants, the problem is there won't be any here after a while , then that mob will turn on the rich anyway. Which one should happen? Hmmm?

That's what happens when you have a government that cares more about the eastern border of Ukraine than its own people.

Shock horror, they need to cut taxes to enable growth. Sorry billionaires you're going to have to pay higher interest rates on your borrowed cash. Time to invest in the middle class to sort this sh*t out.

As The Spectator reveals, growth in the productive, private sector is positive. The declines was in education and the civil service, where activity declined due to strikes. But I fail to see why these public sector activities are included in the figures given that they are totally non-productive and are a huge drag on the economy at the best of times.
The fact is that unless or until we massively slash the public sector, across the west, growth will be anaemic at best.

Considering our financially-incompetent, anti-growth government, zero growth is better than the negative growth they seem to want.

It’s not complicated, we can’t have growth at the moment because inflation is too high. We spent so much in Covid there’s too much money sloshing around and no number of anecdotes can refute that. Wait for inflation to fall, which it will, and then go for growth. Truss was right, but at the wrong time. That’s why she failed and was removed – and she was awful.
@lynnebarkas6906
December 29, 2023 at 6:22 am
Zero growth. Politicians need to get off their backsides and find trade. Don’t give false reasons. Perhaps Liz Truss way may be right.

Sunak-Empty Suit and #unt have adopted the policy of increasing taxation on the cusp of a Recession, really technocratic that!.
Actually, every other metropolitan nation is at ca 100% GDP-Debt. It is important if the Debt can be managed the Treasury are financing most of the Bond payments at less than 1%..

WHY do you NEVER mention the outside forces who have "infiltrated" (according to one Klaus Schwab) our governments institutions and organisations to implement the EUs Green New Deal , ESG , SDG Agenda 2030 , The Great Reset ???? As for the IMF , ALSO part of the Cabal above and CONSISTENTLY WRONG over the last 15 years . WHY do you quote ' them ' as some font of knowledge and honesty ? Follow the £££ see who owns them . And as for a
' Conspiracy theories ' , you'd have to be both blind and a bit mad to NOT see something . I see Liz Truss has woken up !

Number of reasons it flatlined. Neoliberal disaster capitalist policies by 13 years of the Tory regime, wage stagnation with rising inflation, highest cost of living seen in over 50 years, weakened currency, sanctioning Britain from the largest exporter of energy in the world (Russia). Cutting yourself from the largest trading bloc and largest trading partner EU becoming a third country outside the bloc, adding more regulation and red tape. Corporate subsidiaries and tax breaks to billionaire class. Cutting freedom of movement in the labour market. Rising child poverty. Rising costs to the working and middle class. Cuts to public services and infrastructure. Falling GDP. Mass corruption and fleecing of the treasury during the covid pandemic.

I can't think why? When Thatcher left office we had debt to gdp of 29%. Some of the lowest taxes in Europe and enough housing. Plus we had just ended the cold war. Look at the mess today. Millions of immigrants, no housing with record inflation and debt. Tiny armed forces and a country tearing itself apart. Diversity is not strength, its weakness.

The problem with perpetual growth is that it's unsustainable and leads to boom and bust cycles. There's nothing wrong with repetitive GDP year on year as it shows stability for the long term. Calling it "flat lining" like a dead body is propaganda speak to create a problem that doesn't really exist. Imo

The reason the UK has no growth is because the Country is drowning in tax.

Borrowing £2 trillion in 13 years, having 7 million new arrivals here, leaving the largest single market in the World and shutting the economy down three times in two years sort of takes its toll doesn't it?
