There was an interesting programme on Channel 4 last night which showed how the UK has fallen behind in GDP compared with other countries in the G7 and gave suggestions how things could be improved.
Are we suggesting that cutting taxes would stimulate growth and increase GDP, that won’t go down well with the Blob?
That was one of the suggestions. We’re paying more tax than anytime since WW2 and investing far less eg in infrastructure, house building etc. Salaries have hardly increased since the financial crisis which makes us all poorer.
