The boomers got out just in time for the rest of us to face this head on
Yet no one is protesting. How much lower before people get to the streets and demand change…
Instead of uniting and fighting together, they easily pit us against each other in the name of immigrants and religion.
How’s this different to any “third-world” nation?
No sh*t, Sherlock. Brown contributed to it by selling half the UK gold reserves at a multi-decade low and supported the Iraq war costing us more money driving up the national debt as a result
Our definition of poverty is much different to poorer countries of the world. Its relative!
Gordon Brown – One of the architects of said poverty.
Nah, we saw it 17 years ago. Remind me; what was Gordon Brown doing then?
Who was in charge during the recession that the UK has never really gotten out of (in terms of wages anyway), killing the economy, that has pretty much led to the cost of living crisis we’re now in?
*checks notes*
Ah, yes, Gordon Brown.
> UK hasn’t seen poverty like this for 60 years
„The will of the people, doesn’t matter if we will be poorer, at least we have sweat sweat sovereignty“
Maybe you shouldn’t have bailed out the banks, Mr Gormless Brown.
Yet gold prices and stock markets are all hitting record highs. The money’s here it’s just in the wrong hands.
UK hasn’t seen poverty like this since….last time it was outside the EU
Brexit means Brexit.
It’s not poverty. It’s corporate greed which should be called corruption, or even treason. These corporations have been allowed to “lobby” to politicians and get away with murder.
It’s not just the UK, it’s Americas sprawl into the developed world.
Thanks for selling all our Gold for pennies, Gordon.
There’s more money going to animal charities than children’s charities in the UK.
Universal income should just become a thing. Money works better than donations anyway. People will spend it on things to improve their lives and small businesses and the economy would be good.
Good thing we have our nice stack of gold reserves to fall back on, right, Gordon?
… right?
And yet the Labour government is more concerned with censorship in the guise of child safety
Is a £17.25 per kid a week really going get these people to buy beds for their kids, ovens and washing machines for their kids?
A half decent bed is going to be around 2-3 months of child benefit.
A washing machine is 3 months worth at least. An that won’t be a very good one or a very energy efficient one.
When it doesn’t work, what will the next demand will be that they need to increase this rate, more money.
People need to stop having kids they can’t afford.
Thanks Gordon, if only we still had our gold reserve.
Bruh the Gordon Brown hate is insane. I’m a tory, and even I think he did a pretty damn good job as his time as chancellor. The gold reserves pale in comparison to the cock ups we’ve seen since.
Why don’t we just sell Scotland to Trump ?
Call it Trumpland.
Second home tax, private pension tax over a certain amount, tax on share options via employment, 90% tax rate over £1,000,000. Problem solved but no one wants to hear it
That gold would be pretty handy right about now Gordon.
Why don’t we just sell Scotland to Trump ?
Call it Trumpland.
Breaking all kinds of records: poverty, censorship, authoritarianism.
You guys gonna redistribute now or are you just going to continue to do Reaganism for all eternity?
Don’t worry, Farage will fix everything with four word slogans.
