Quoted from KingstonMariner
Great idea for them, as with the amount of money sloshing around in the Prem, their club doesn't need it.

Mind you, if we had a proper tax regime, there wouldn't need to be food banks. Over to you Boris.


Perhaps if Blair and Brown hadn't spunked all the countries money on nonsense when times were good, there might have been some sort of rainy day fund for the 2008 fallout. Then we wouldn't have interest payments on the debt that are greater than the national deficit. I guess that's all going to be small fry compared to what's to come, but that situation is hardly Boris' fault, no matter how idiotic he is. His budget was much more in line with New Labour than a typical Conservative one anyway.

this is definitely how an economy works, especially after a decade of being in power.

FFS! 8 of the last 50 years or so have had a Labour government but it's still Labour's fault!

Nothing can be laid at the door of Osborn, Cameron, May, Johnson?

I think that image says everything. The mess they inherited was always going to take decades to resolve, it's just no politician will get elected telling that truth.

Why is hardship the fault of the government?  Surely the employers only paying minimum wage are the biggest culprits.
I do sympathise with those that work hard for low pay. Perhaps we should cut benefits and give a lift to those in work.

On another note I see our hard working MP’s have been given something like a 3% pay rise, probably instead of giving them a pay rise when the country is broke we should all have gone outside at 8pm on a Tuesday evening and clapped them, I’m sure they would appreciate that more then the cash.

An independant body decides what pay MPs get. This was brought in after the expenses scandal so that MPs had no say in what they are paid. I have no beef about what MPs are paid but I do have  an issue with the House of Lords and some of the salaries for local authority administrators.

MPs have to vote on whether to accept the increase or not.
