We all knew this was going to happen, and also same situation with prison officers coming from abroad too. Culture transplant is real, people bring in the culture from their country. I can't imagine the number of assaults happening to fragile old people in care homes, or their

Lets go into this and why it has second/third order effects. Impact on gilts: 4.5% 10yr yield means with a 2% tax, and 3% inflation you are effectively losing money in real terms investing in govt bonds. Impact on stocks: UK companies are traditional ones, low/zero growth with

WTF is this 1920s? I cannot believe this is US farming in 2025. That is the poorest productivity imaginable. Even a semi-automated harvester for SMALL farms would get you 3000 buckets a day. With 1-2 operators. This farm is likely large so you could get 8000 a day with an

This just isn't true at all. Salary : Housing costs- Wrong Currency GBP : USD - Wrong NHS/GP waiting times- Wrong Taxation (not even incl. University debt)- Wrong Energy costs (worlds highest industrial costs at that)- Wrong The only metric he has is crime surveys, which show

Productivity, and thus gdp per capita matters. Do you want to live in Switzerland, or India? She advocates for an Indian economy it seems, quantity over quality. The govt issued 350k+ care worker visas, and even more than that dependent visas for care workers. If they get ILR,

Shambles of a MP. Companies LOVE mass migration, it prevents wage growth. Creates consumers at the cost of the taxpayer, and well-being. Whilst making the country poorer as companies dont need to invest into productive assets to improve pay, and working conditions. We have had

My girlfriend in the bathroom while I’m in the shower pretending to be Caesar.
