To be able to save, you need ‘spare money’ after rent, food and bills. So many people are living hand to mouth and are unable to save. It’s said a good proportion of the country are just six wage packets from destitution.
Agreed but not at all surprised. We are in a truly dreadful situation that the last lot were so bad that the only real alternative was the shambles we have now got.
This was always inevitable. After 13 years of constant degeneration, the country was always going to have a new government that needed to course correct. Sadly, people have such short memories that the next government after this was was always likely to be Conservative again
Sounds ideal until you realise most 21 year olds change employment every two or three years. Even now it’s almost impossible to amalgamate pension schemes. My husband has had 3 jobs in 27 years. 3 completely different pension schemes.
Here and now, but it’s a proposal?
I agree but will it be enough to live on?
A lot of people have selective short term-memories. They'll conveniently forget the £ billions 'spaffed' by the Johnson Government via dodgy contracts and cronyism, and the disastrous mini-Budget of the Truss premiership, but they'll still bang on about Gordon Brown selling some of our gold reserves over 20 year ago, or the 1978-79 winter of discontent 45 years ago.
Labour will be hoping that they can do the nasty stuff now, take the hits and losses, give a very harsh budget then spend between then and the election rebuilding trust.
Did Reform pull out of this seat? I saw they were campaigning for it.
