Your post just shows me that you don’t fundamentally understand markets, incentives or the macro economy. It’s blindingly obvious that public sector companies are run terribly and run up insane costs that would never happen in the private sector to anyone that knows what they’re talking about. I’m not denigrating the hard working people that do the work. In fact, they have my utmost respect. My disdain is for the middle management class, the bureaucracy that ramps up costs, means nothing gets done, and sucks up all the money into its coffers and directs it away from those people doing the real work.

Maybe I can help. it’s because they’re helping to bring in large quantities of people into the country which (an in on own amount) later go on to steal/murder/rape “just following orders” has never been a credible defence. It didn’t work for previous totalitarian regimes and it won’t work here.

Agreed, there seems to be a bourgeoisie in this country that grew up thinking they were fighting “the system” by calling everyone far right, and they haven’t realised that “the system” has now flipped on its head and it’s being weaponised against the natives. Agreed about the public sector. Either that or they that have HR jobs and jobs with no meaningful output other than having meetings and doing the odd spreadsheet. You can tell this, because they think “lefty” is something to be proud of. That means they have no idea how reality actually works.

The great British think tank do an excellent job of breaking down the data: https://gbtt.info/data-release-gdp-july-2026?utm_source=x&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=gdp-july-2026 We are in a dire situation with not much light at the end of the tunnel, economically. And now labours minister for “growth” is tweeting about raising taxes on the hospitality sector even further.

Agreed…. And now today’s news that the Houthis have struck the Saudi Arabian pipeline couldn’t have come at a worse time…

"The purpose of studying economics is not to acquire a set of ready-made answers to economic questions, but to learn how to avoid being deceived by economists." That headline figure is almost certainly wrong, and will likely be revised down soon.

Because the government is recklessly spending Meaning the currency will be debased massively. Smart money knows that even bonds at 6% will lose money in real terms. No one wealthy would take that trade.

Only if you don’t understand what those words actually mean

You have a very over active imagination. None of that is true. The people that were there were mostly hard working people that have had enough of being ignored. Also there were many close relatives of people that have suffered due to the lack of border controls

It’s certainly had an impact, but so has Labour’s reckless attitude towards fiscal policy. To blame Trump alone you’d have to explain why our economy is faring worse than most others. You’ll find that this structural vulnerability has been building for years and now has self-feeding dynamics - people tried to blame Liz Truss, but it wasn’t just her. It’s sluggish productivity colliding with expanding deficits and the refinancing of debt last incurred at lower borrowing costs, making both economic growth and fiscal sustainability almost impossible to achieve. (Compounded by successive clowns as Prime Ministers who think that money grows on trees.)

Incompetent government.

And this just shows that you don’t actually have a clue what you’re talking about. Because the protest was peaceful, all they did was block the coaches and stand in the water. Then dispersed as soon as the police got a dispersal order at 4am(ish). Literally all the other talk of thuggery etc is media amplification and you are all buying it hook, line and sinker

Im glad that you take the word lefty as offensive.

And the organisers mum has had to go into hiding because the mainstream media doxxed her home address. Therefore proving that masks are necessary because the state is now far-left fascist.

The state & their mainstream media are DESPERATE to paint it as thuggery. But there is zero proof. Zero arrests. Zero evidence of any wrongdoing. Just people making their voices heard after being ignored for a decade.
