    This plan relies on the rich putting the money they're saving back in the economy which we know they won't.

    Truss said she didn't want to help people with money they have to pay back later. So what did she do? Borrowed a load of money to help the rich that people will have to pay back later. Nice one.

    Either they're doing this to the country on purpose or they're really this incompetent. Either way they need to go before this country is completely ruined.

    What happens is the yields will have to increase in order to have people buy Sterling. If we get hit with a credit rating reset, then we have made it more expensive to fund our debt. I would like to know when the next tranche of loans are due.

    The rise in base rates is killing growth and plunging the treasury and homeowners into further debt. This so called economist should get out more.

    Yes and inflation always erodes ordinary peoples savings . Funny the 2008 so called credit crunch did not bother me so much but what is happening now is very concerning . We had two years of pandemic where bad economic and social decisions were made , we have had supply chain problems , we had the high price of fuel and the conflict in Ukraine which was basically the last straw but as we know several UK MPs have said it is a price worth paying until the end , I am glad they think so while people slowly get poorer and poorer . . I reckon the gov motto is borrow more more more .

    Inflation will erode the savings and assets of the ordinary population
    It will worsen our living conditions while the rich get richer

    It erodes nothing. Just makes it appear less in relation to GDP.
    We will still owe £2.6 trillion.

    It'll make poor people get more debt as fuel prices will rise due to a weak pound.
