You can’t tax your way to growth. And if you incentivise lack of productivity (wfa, pip, triple lock etc.) don’t be surprised that the economy shrinks.

Considering we are heading towards a recession and we have an insane labour government throwing gasoline on the fire it doesn’t surprise me

I went out in my local city centre on Friday and Saturday night and was staggered at how empty all the bars and restaurants were. It feels like this is just the beginning of a very bad time, yet again.
Still, at least we’ve got more tax and price rises to look forward to. That’ll be good.

But hey, companies catering to the 0.1% are doing better than ever. I wonder where all the money has gone? 🤔

Yup. A friend of mine is considering closing down his two small businesses over, amongst other factors, the hike in employer NIC, minimum wage increase & frozen tax bands.

A combination of taxing your way to growth and a lack of incentive to work will shrink the economy. Who would’ve thought?
