not as comfortable as you were

i know this is on a lot of people’s minds but i’m struggling a bit processing how many cut backs we’ve had to make. i’m great full that we still have food on the table and small things but we used to have days out, holidays, meals out etc. and it sucks going without we’ve done everything we can to maximise income and keep bills down etc but there’s been a lot of cutbacks and i’m struggling with it i know we’re in a better position that others but i don’t know how to deal with the fact that we’ve already lost a lot of things and there’s probably a lot more to come. It’s becoming really stressful, how is everyone else managing with this?

Telegraph reporting today Brexit is costing the UK economy 100 billiion a year. Let's assume we have 25 million households then that's 80 quid a week per household 'lost'. When you to tot up covid costs and increased government debt costs thats a huge amount.

The IMF has said today we are the worst performing economy in the WHOLE of the developed world. That’s not because of the global economy and the Ukraine, it’s because of Brexit (brought about by the tories) and absolute Tory mismanagement. This. And things won't start to improve until those at the top face the facts and admit this so they can start to tackle it. They've hidden behind the smokescreen of Covid and the war in Ukraine for too long. This IMF forecast says it all. Blind refusal to accept the reality will help no-one - I don't expect the Tories to change their tune, but I think it's time for Labour to stand up and be counted.

It's so depressing seeing such vast quantities of money being flushed down the drain to make us worse off and a political class refusing to address it. Oceans of cash we could have done so much with.

Labour standing up with the current top shadow cabinet 😂

Had we have the New Labour then there might be a chance. I couldnt see the UK with Corbyn or now Starmer.
