Aye 5% of last years gas /leccy prices and 5% of future gas/leccy prices wonder how much extra tax they will get from that.
If some people don't understand the phrase 'this pandemic is one of the largest transfers of wealth ever seen' right there is one prime example. Money squandered into the hands of cronies via deals for stuff that was never going to make the grade or see the light of day. Then the money to cover it is taken from the everyday working man/woman via legal means of tax and NI. It's the perfect crime. And this has happened time after time. You can also then look at the stock market and how that has been manipulated with these lockdowns and shutdowns. The people in the know (once again the tories and their cronies) have made millions out of backing the right shares and getting rid of the ones that would fail based on inside knowledge of what was coming. Look at Hancock for one example buying up shares in testing and genome sequencing companies. Vallance and co having shares in the vaccine companies. One big massive rip off and transfer of wealth. And now everything is being swept under the carpet while they blind everyone with partygate. Playing everyone as fools and most are falling for it. The thing is, the worst is probably yet to come with the collateral damage and fallout from all this. Deaths from other diseases that could have been picked up and treated, the people forced to die alone, massive waiting lists for treatment, inflation, lost jobs, 2 years of our lives literally lost and wiped off our already short lives, mental health, the list goes on and on.
Regarding the £8.7 billion write-offs, That weasel of a man Gove has been doing the rounds saying the Government was hustling? "unbelievable what they come out with".
Fùckin stock Market, one of my pension pots has lost 4% in the last year, that's before inflation has de-valued it another 6%.
