The slide has been rapid compared to previous governments, even if biased voting is taken into account. The problem with Labour is, they don't know that an action has an opposite reaction, so they blunder in. So they scrap winter allowance payments but as more and more apply for and receive pension credit, it'll cost more in extra pension payments than heating allowance. They made bold claims about capital gains tax, even HMRC said, "Hang on, we'll lose billions because investors will simply move abroad.
But Lefties have Utopian thoughts, they believe you can spend any amount you want on anything you want without knowing how much things cost, and that butchering costs and shoving up tax has consequences. And no doubt, that's the Tories fault!! Lol
