Housing crisis is what causes half of the UK’s economic and political issues.
When young people can afford to house themselves for less than 40% of their salary they will have the space to be entrepreneurial and we will see economic growth as well as higher spending rather than it being sucked into the hands of landlords.
Support the concept of a Land Value Tax, it’s a step in the right direction towards fixing this country I’m sure you love as much as I do.
Never has a Chancellor been so closely scrutinised.
Pity the press wasn’t this zealous on behalf of the public during the last Tory government.
Taking more money off people reduces their living standards? Who would have thought?
People seem to think that when taxes go up, Rachel Reeves is out buying tiaras, diamond rings and private islands. Up to a threshold, tax money comes back to us.
Are these the same ‘retail giants’ that have been steadily increasing their prices for the last few years to whatever they think people will just be able to afford?
They’re not the heroes they’re making themselves out to be with this press release.
Predators saying they’ll predate more and more and more because only their interests matter.
Also look at them using passive voice to try and hide the fact that they’ll be the ones actively working to fix prices, greedflation, shrinkflation etc to detoriate quality of life of people who are not investors.
This is not a warning, this is threatening
>Retail giants warn their desire for profit risk UK living standards
FTFY
Anyone else beginning to think Labour didn’t actually have a plan for being in government?.
The business paper doesn’t like it when businesses are asked to pay more.
Shock horror.
Another article of the big corporations holding government and country to ransom over things like asking them to pay a little more tax.
Tesco making billions off of us while blaming inflation for blatant profiteering is impacting our living standards but they seem perfectly ok with that.
Whilst Reeves raises taxes making everyone poorer, Starmer is busy flying about in tax payer funded private jets to football matches.
Yeah.. I’m sure companies making billions every year are the ones to listen to.
Someone will be along soon to dive in front of any criticism of Tesco etc. with the line “But their margins are razor thin!”
As if having a razor thin margin on *a massive chunk of all sales in the entire nation after spending decades aggressively expanding to capture said market* is an act of charity on their part.
‘Retail giants warn Reeves they might make a little less profit’ more like.
No government has EVER taxed it’s way to prosperity.
I would argue the greed from the people that run retail giants over paying their staff well with decent benefits risks that.
Small businesses already have access to a lot of business rate schemes not sure why they are trying to push more upon larger retailers when a supermarket is probably already paying a £2-4k a week.
Something online stores can largely avoid.
We want larger more efficient businesses as they are the ones which should be competing internationally and bringing revenue home.
Anyone over 65 is guaranteed an inflation busting raise every year plus Christmas bonuses, free services, discounts etc.
Anyone under 65 should follow government advice to go starve to death in a hole.
Anything Reeves does, or does not do, is effectively irrelevant. UK living standards are going to go down regardless, the only questions are at what rate and to what extent. Wages have stagnated for people not on minimum wage, basic costs of living are outpacing inflation, working practices do not encourage productivity, people are burning out due to stress, globalisation is at risk from war and climate change etc…I could go on and on here. No Chancellor, whether it is Reeves, another Labour Chancellor, or a Chancellor from a different party, will be able to stop the decline. They could only manage it. The general decline is being caused by late-stage capitalism hoovering up as much wealth and resources as possible towards the top few in society. Reeves’ tax plans are not the ultimate cause of people’s misery.
No matter where the tax goes the end consumer always ends up paying for it. In a cost of living crisis any taxation is only going to force more hardship on normal people.
Nah, they just want to raise prices and take billions in profit without regulation
I haven’t read that but I’m pretty sure lower profits fixes whatever problem the whining about.
Some people in this sub dont know what they want. What ever the gov does, people gonna be unhappy about it.
Ah yes, of course, the retail giants only have the best intentions for the living standards of normal working people…
