SPB-Cooperator BS: Brexit & other UK political topics (4361* d) RE: BS: Brexit & other UK political topics 14 Jul 22


(1) Cuts to public services (NHS, Transport and so on), more and increased chares for using services and more backdoor privatisation.

(2) Making claimants more accountable for DWP errors, and probably extending sanctions regime, and further restrictions directed at people with disabilities and long term conditions (anyone who does not fit in with the tory 'happy citizen' branding. Also making UC for those in full time employment more restrictive and not being particularly bothered about whether people can cope on low wages.

(3) Not caring about scorched earth they leave behind if they lose power as they can plough into any opposition party that has to spend money to repair the damage, and if, by any chance they stay in power not really caring as they will fall back to the mantra of blaming Labour for the world-wide credit crunch in 1996 who apparently were responsible for the toxic sub prime lending in America.

(4) Continuing to turn the screws on Local Authorities so they (particularly Labour Councils) get blames for cuts to local services. At the same time, providing a short term capital investment to make high streets look pretty for a while without addressing long-term issues and deprivation.

(5) Encourage everyone to do their 'bit'. Mitigate a tiny percentage of the cost of living and deterioration of peoples lifestyles with comparatively small giveaways, while giving higher paid workers bigger tax breaks to make the average look good.
