Just read about a nurse who works 13-hour shifts and gets circa £60,000 per annum salary. Saves lives all week long. Now relies on food banks to feed her children. But we have football players earning £500,000 a week. Free market right? madness!!
Energy crisis: monthly household energy bill that was £100 is now £400 and set to rise even further. But energy companies are declaring record profits and paying hefty bonuses to their leadership. Now the government must use taxpayer’s money to hand out some money to help people pay their bills: how can any of that make sense? The government might as well just write a cheque to the energy companies…
It is clear that the ongoing crisis was not caused by the energy companies and they cannot be expected to bail an entire country out. But surely, we need a new strategy…
Still can’t think of an era that worked out well for everyone….
