A message to Rishi...

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Rishi for those of us who do not have non-dom status, this cost-of-living crisis is real.

I’m like a poor kid looking through a posh toy shop window when I visit a petrol station, I can look but I can’t afford to buy. Regrettably, the second car is going to the auction, we can no longer afford to keep two vehicles on the road.

I’ve waited patiently for well over twelve months to have a routine procedure in an NHS hospital, but like Diana Ross laments, “I’m Still Waiting” and the pain is getting worse by the day.

The weekly “Big Shop” is cancelled until further notice. Now it’s a daily visit to find the best “Whoopsies” at Aldi, Asda, and Lidl; I call it “Shopping to Survive”.

Daily bathing is now cancelled, the new routine has become a quick shower every three days; because the water usage rates have jumped through the roof and don’t even get me started on your state sanctioned gas and electric off the meter tariff 50% charges increase.

No discernible pension increase is on the horizon, but meanwhile, by my estimate, the real cost of living has increased by around 35% in the last three months.

Don’t be ashamed Rishi, just blame (or in your case admire) the idiots gullible enough to be sucked in by and voted for the smooth talking, mainly corrupt Cabinet full of Conservative and Unionist Cretins who are led by a blonde-haired, grinning, smirking, clueless clown who is aided and abetted by his quisling sidekick Sir Kier Starmer.

Meanwhile you can afford to donate one million pounds to your old boarding school. Never since the days of serfdom has the divide between the rich and poor been so great. How do you sleep at night?

We have a real Conservative Prime Minister BT.According to the rest of Europe and JoeBiden/Justin Trudeau etc he is an authoritarian thug.The Hungarians must love authoritarian thugs because they have just voted him in for a fourth term and yet again with a resounding two thirds majority.I will just list some of the policies of this authoritarian thug:-

1.Cheapest energy prices in Europe-approx. one third of UK prices.This policy has been in place since 2011 when Viktor Orban and his Fidesz party came to power with the country on the verge of bankruptcy in order to protect the citizens from extortionate energy prices by private companies.Many of the energy companies have been bought back by the government.
2.Because of the difficulties faced by families during lockdowns all income tax from 2021 up until the average wage was fully refunded in Feb 2022.
3.Pensioners get an extra month of their pension at Christmas time.
4.Pensioners are given bonus payments when GDP growth exceeds 6%(as in the last 2 years)
5.Basic foodstuffs(vegetable oil,milk,pork,chicken and others) have prices fixed at the October 2021 level
6.Petrol and diesel prices have a maximum limit to private users of 480Ft/litre(£1,06/litre)
7.Mortgage payments were stopped during the pandemic to stop people losing their homes.
8.2.500.000Ft(£5.530) grants for families with three children or more to buy new 7-seater cars.
9.10.000.000Ft(£22.110) grants and up to 15.000.000(£33.165)fixed low interest(3%)loans for families to buy new houses.
10.Tax credits for families with two children or more.People with 3 children literally pay no tax up to a certain limit.
11.No income tax for people under 25 years old.
12.No immigration from outside the EU unless coming for a specific job or to study.
13.No teaching of gender types or LGBTQ in junior or secondary schools up to the age of 18.

I could carry on but you get my drift.Many of the policies are designed to increase birth rates and they are succeeding as they are now increasinfg as never before.It is no longer a financial burden to have children-in fact in many ways it is cheaper.

Well done BT I wandered how long it would take before it was Boris and Rishi conservatives fault for a world wide problem.

It’s amazing that they were completely in control of a pandemic ( which tbh - no Labour government would have given grants and loans out to get people through the worst).

How can they have anything to do with fuel , gas , electric , lack of food from other countries it’s a massive issue I know that but you can’t blame the conservatives for a worldwide issue and a head the ball Russian maniac.

I feel the frustration BT but come on give em a bit of slack.

What a sick joke: Private breast enlargements and nose jobs were carried out by NHS doctors during Covid pandemic... as hospitals turned away desperate patients queuing up for cancer and hip surgery


The NHS cancelled cancer and hip operations during the pandemic while continuing to perform breast enlargements and nose jobs for private patients.

Figures reveal the health service profited from treating tens of thousands of people who paid for care last year despite claiming to be overwhelmed by coronavirus.

Waiting lists have soared to a record high of 6.1million after the NHS postponed ‘non-urgent’ treatment and urged Britons to stay away due to the pandemic.
But it still found time to carry out operations including tummy tucks, knee replacements and cataract surgery for patients able to pay.
Meanwhile, others have been forced to wait more than two years for essential treatment.

NHS trusts are allowed to supplement their usual taxpayer-funded income by selling private services on the side.

remember this !




as for those in Government, I think, what they think of the "people" should be obvious to everybody - as all they're concenred about now is their sustainable technological Reset.....the more they squeeze us / the more they take...the less we have and the more Power have to direct us into a future of their design - which as i'm reading it, means bug food (shaped and flavoured to suit) and working/entertaining/shopping/holidaying etc etc from the inside of a metaverse reality.

With respect the private NHS treatment could have caused an awful lot of trouble for insurers if they started saying we’re not giving you your treatment because we’re busy .

It’s a view I thought about that all , I mean I checked on my private policy re stuff happening in the pandemic and was re assured , if I needed any treatment it would be carried out regardless of pandemic.

I guess legally it’s a can of worms if the private policies weren’t fulfilled as per policy , liable cases would start and for very large sums of money.

We are heading down the same route as the Americans I think anyway where people will end up with private health.

Money makes the world go round

Nicked from another socialist who also detest Tory corruption:

What we know about Rishi Sunak's incredibly dodgy household finances so far:
Sunak's wife Akshata Murty registered herself as non-dom in order to avoid paying £millions in tax on her overseas income.

Non-dom status is intended for British citizens who spend the majority of their lives abroad, but Murty was living in Downing Street, and sending her kids to British school. Ordinary people have been jailed for pretending to be overseas resident to avoid UK tax, but apparently, it's fine if you're married to a Tory government minister!

Sunak himself was pretending to be a full-time resident of the United States by retaining his Green Card, after he was parachuted into the safest Tory seat in the country, and even after he was promoted to Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Sunak also violated parliamentary standards by failing to declare his wife's £690m shareholding in the IT company InfoSys, which has had more than a dozen meetings with senior government ministers and secured £millions in contracts from the UK government.
The Tory party excuse for all of this seems to be that it's all just a bunch of innocent oversights.

Apparently, he sorts of forgot that he was registered as a full-time US citizen; and he forgot to consider the legal and ethical implications of his wife simultaneously pretending to be resident in India; and he forgot to comply with the ministerial code by declaring his wife's massive shareholding in a company that was bidding for UK government contracts.

His excuses are laughable, and his petulant foot-stamping demands for an inquiry into how his dodgy financial arrangements ended up getting leaked tell the true story.

He knew what he was doing, but he fully expected to get away with it due to the culture of absolute impunity that permeates the entire Westminster establishment class.

But even if we take the Tories at their word (and who possibly could?) and that all of Sunak's scandalous duplicity was just the result of a sequence of unfortunate oversights, what does that tell us about the man himself?

If his family financial arrangements are such a shambolic mess that he doesn't even seem to know which country he's claiming to be resident in, how the hell does it make sense to leave such a bumbling economic incompetent in position as the finance minister of the world's sixth largest economy?

Tory corruption rules, OK?

All of that BT is just another year in politics and if you go back for years weather it be Tory or Labour we could find many a heading as your post.

Gold reserves sold
Privatisation
Selling of our gas reserves - on and on it goes all of them trying to balance the books so to speak.

My real point was BT ( and your an intelligent man ) there is only one pot of money to make the country work - but many of these circumstances are not our governments doing it’s a worldwide problem not just the uk.
