Oh, I'm sorry, are Trump's idiotic decisions negatively impacting you, mate? That must be so very frustrating.

Inflation has been an issue here before Trump became president. Our Government's "plan for growth" has increased inflation by over 50% from when they took over; the orange man messing about in Iran will be the icing on the 💩 sundae.

Inflation was 2.2% in July 2024, when Biden was in situ in the White House and got as high as 3.8% in August last year (pre-Iran). For reference, the Chancellors target is 2%.

The issues above are a great example of where the economy has had the stuffing taken out of it across many areas. Our Govt are currently borrowing money (at high interest rates) to pay off the interest from the loans they took out, while tax burdens are now the highest since WW2 and they are trying to find ways to tax us more. The structural issues with our economy are baked in via incompetence, twisted ideology and arrogance, and we need vast and deep cuts to stop us going bankrupt.

The 🟠 one will only hasten the demise of this communist idiocracy with the war in Iran.

But never fear, life goes on and the Mandelson cover up shows no sign of going away. You can see how thick our Govt are that they can't cover up the cover up, without it looking like a cover up. Its a sad, but artwork nonetheless

Oh, well then surely a war with Iran will fix things in no time, govnah!

Inflation in the UK has been a constant issue from COVID to now - the last Govt finally got it vaguely under control (after peaking at 11% when Ukraine kicked off) but it was a painful journey to get there. The OTT COVID borrowing has left us in a debt spiral where the now Govt had to make big cuts to get us out of trouble.

Trump and Iran will no doubt have a ripple effect to our economy, but the core issue is our Govt across the board being stupid, ideologically stuck in high school and incapable of coherently planning and understanding impacts of the planning. They hiked the young persons minimum wage and very genuinely didn't see the low youth employment figures coming. Or claiming the LNG we could extract from the North Sea is priced globally and that's why we need to import it from Norway, who extract it from the same gas field that we can access. Make it make sense!

And I do appreciate that things aren't ideal in America, but here's another example. Unleaded fuel over here is now $1.65-1.70 a litre - 55% of that cost, the Govt takes via taxation but they blame everyone but themselves for how high it is.

The far left being the far left. This team the "Green" party.

Don' like Jewish people

The messages.

When your Green party leader is Jewish and his family actively seek out journalists, you know its bad

Meanwhile, the local election are on 7 May and the Govt are finally realising that, we the people, don't like them. Its going to be beautiful to see them wiped out locally

And our dear leader plays football, but can't play football

And if you want to know one reason we're effed, this explains it. A parliament full of professional lightweights

And as for free speech....

The below is a "Your Party" MP gobbing off as usual.

Wonder if the Govt will arrest her for hurty words? After all, they set quite the precedence in 2024

And the veil falls, this time from the Liberal Democrats

AKA shut up, take the unlimited immigration and we want to stop censor social media to you talking about it.

Not very liberal and not very democratic. But not surprising. Very Yookay

The "core issue” is about to be overcome by events elsewhere.

@UK Eagle Hey bro, you on your way to get your own oil? Let us know if you need directions.

That would require our dear leader making a decision. He waffled on about diplomacy again today; the bombs are a falling, and he has no influence over his views.

It is. They didn't fix the roof while the sun was shining, and now in an intellectual bird cage of their own making. With a Govt that can't govern a piss up in a brewery

The Far Right rioted in London last night. Lots of scared people locked into shops in Clapham, for the 2nd night in a row

Who I am lidding?

How I miss the London on the left. It was truly safe then

Meanwhile, Japan played a friendly at Wembley last night and cleaned up their own mess

Such a cultural contrast and mindset.

As for the Govt, this is the added tax being forced on the country today. Brutal for growth and low inflation

And the story about the Labour MP whose husband was arrested recently took another turn. She's a fan of Seamen it seems

Two different seamen as well

Life goes on in the UK

When your Govt overly punish people for posting on social media, people go anon, use VPNs or just stop posting altogether.

And the Jewish ambulance service in London was firebombed recently - I didn't post about it, but I wasn’t the only one to think. I bet the perpetrators came from a certain country and religion. But let's see if I am right before casting aspersions.

Imagine my shock

And you know they aren't the brightest when...

The post that no one wants or asks for

The PM is quite chuffed about his important role in the Iran ceasefire. And he's getting memed over it

Turns our Senior Govt members decided solving world peace was so important, that they went away on holiday - clearly negotiating hard while in Spanish Villa. After complaining 5 years ago about the last Govt doing it in a crisis. No shame from a Commie!

But the real stuff. I can already hear "they didn't cross my desk". Its one scandal after another.

Most of it being cooked. The breakfast has massive potential to be good to great, but it looks like it was cooked on a luke warm radiator by a blind man.

And here we go again.

The plan for growth is going well.

When you raise taxes on sins, people find other ways to sin more cheaply. Not rocket science

More indolent wasters being paid to do sweet FA. Why do I work with this parliament?

Speaking of wasters and these priorities

It pays not work over it seems. In 7 years, the few tax payers left are doing increasingly heavy lifting.

There is a reason why people like myself want those legal firms closed and the owners locked away. The endless benefits piggy bank

And when you add in our mad approach to regular immigration, we're bringing in cheap immigrants to pay UK nationals benefits to do nothing.

But at least we aren't the EU. Sit at home in the dark because our energy policies are awful. Von Der Leyen is the lady that forced German soldiers to participate in War Games with Broomsticks because they didnt have enough guns,
