With prices going up everywhere this is what the Shadow Chancellor suggests - scrapping the 1% reduction in income tax and the rise in NI. How paying more tax is going to help anyone the old dear does not explain.  |

I don't think they know.
Seems to me its a case of 'we must do something, this is something, so we must do it.'

Therein lies the problem. One wants to borrow money we can’t afford to throw at the problem and the other wants to tax us money we can’t afford to pay to throw at it

Before we get anywhere near there, we will see a rush for second hand or 'used' petrol/diesel cars the value of which is going to go stratospheric in a few years, in fact it's already started. |

Therein lies the problem. One wants to borrow money we can’t afford to throw at the problem and the other wants to tax us money we can’t afford to pay to throw at it And the one thing we unambiguously must do, ie reduce public expenditure, nobody is discussing. At some point reality is going to catch up with this process and i would advise people to stand well back when it does. |

We are as rich as a poor man with a wallet full of credit cards and access to an overdraft . |

The main issue is the roof over your head, if you can't afford that you're in big trouble.
This is one of the main headaches for people, if you lose your home, be it mortgage or rented it's one of the worst things that could happen to any one.

There is going to be a lot of suffering for those who've been trapped into ridiculous mortgages over the past 10- 15 years |
