Cut CEO and Executive Pay to increase competition in the market.
Cutting minimum wage is punitive bullshit.
Cutting minimum wage is punitive bullshit.
And then employers moan that nobody wants to work and that young people all leave the country.
not just leave the country- leave the towns in the UK that need to catch up to retain their talent. The brain drain is real, young people leave their small towns because theres no progress or future, most go where the better paid work is. If they want to level up, cutting minimum wage is the opposite of what needs to happen
Gov has never been interested in leveling up, was and is an election strategy. Like saying you'll build 40 new hospitals when what's actually happened is some have been touched up.
Just change the tax system. Have some sort if a rebate or something
Companies get 0 for all workers in London, 5% for large cities outside London, 10% for bumfuck nowhere.
Why care or publicise what these morons think?
Economists saw a politician with a career shorter than the lifespan of lettuce and thought "this is a person who will represent our position!"
Who is trusting or even listening to these people? Ignore any economist who doesn't use a Keysian approach.
Remember when she sent inflation skyrocketing and nearly bankrupted every pension fund in the country, sacked after 6 weeks, of which most of that was spent burying old Lizzy.
Man those were some good times.
I can only suppose that a "Truss supporting economist" is the equivalent of a fireman holding a Molotov cocktail.
Yes, make the poors poorer, that'll surely help,
That site really needs a newer stock photo of cash. I felt compelled to look it up: The paper tenner was withdrawn in 2018 and the round pound coins were withdrawn in 2017.
Feels like last week. Where the hell has the time gone? (Pandemic probably hasn't helped.)
Back on topic, those economists are letting their cold, blue little hearts rule their heads. Ghouls.
First time I came to England before moving here there were still the small, fat pound coins. When I came back a few years ago I thought I was experiencing some weird Mandela effect
The entire country was scandalised, until we were reassured that the new pound coins would still work in trolley locks.
I brought some cash I still had, tried to get in the bus from the airport and was told what I had wasn't legal money. Shit was confusing, went to a cash point really close by and got to see the bus leave without me.
Supporting Liz Truss rather cancels out the economist part.
What Truss knows about prudent economic policy would fit on the back of a postage stamp.
