Haha, join the club mate. Total waste of time trying to provide a different perspective. It's not the £350 billion cost of lockdown or the £150 billion cost of the energy cap, both of which were strongly supported by the lefty types on here, it was the miniscule cost of the top rate tax cut that screwed the economy. Not just ours, the Yen has collapsed, the Euro is also at a record low against the dollar, that's one hell of a global effect for a tax cut that cost a few billion quid in one country.
The plan is clear and obvious, provide a business friendly low tax environment to promote growth and hopefully stave off a potentially disastrous recession that is looming. I don't think people have grasped the dire situation we are in across the West, which is why radical action is necessary. I guess it's easier just to call people cunts and blame them for the global shitshow. In fact, our debt to gdp ratio is 6th out of the 7 G7 nations, only one below us is Germany, and they're even more screwed than we are and Winter is coming. If they go into recession, the entire pack of debt leveraged cards could come tumbling. Where we go from there, fuck knows.
