"Get stuffed"

[Heisenberg]

Everybody knows that's the point.
The thing is that we can no longer afford to support the infrastructure and high standards of the past because we've lost touch with reality and proportion . Being more concerned with peculiar sexual practises, race politics and climate change than with History, Grammar or Physics, having created the professions of single parenthood and economic immigration, and having abandoned manufacturing and commerce in favour of cutting each other's hair and delivering pizzas, of course we can't afford an infrastructure.

You keep telling us not to trust politicians yet you're just carrying their message of not being able to afford nice things anymore. I'm just going to ignore the not-thinly-veiled bigotry in your post as that's all it deserves.

If any of that bullshit was true, then it must have been a Christmas Miracle when Austerity PLC found £1bn to get the DUP into bed a couple of years ago.

That £1bn was obviously found behind the sofa because we were told that there was no money available for public services and they all needed to be cut for the greater good.

I wonder how far that £1bn would have gone in terms of funding the fire brigades and police in the UK? Could have at least upgraded the London ones to "second world" worthy, I reckon.

Same old thick, insensitive Tories, mocking Corbyn's green tie. God help us

Not sure what the exact 2019 figure is but the official amount Britain gave away in Overseas Aid in 2018 was £13.4 billion. That was 0.7% of Britain's GDP. While the government has had no problem slashing various budgets that citizens of this country rely on, that one has remained untouchable. Before a fan of one of the political teams weigh in, Labour would also have protected it and will if they're elected. A little context to that £13.4 billion from just that single year. UK prisons which are constantly a few hundred below maximum operating capacity (because the government supposedly hasn't the readies to build new ones) and is why magistrates and judges grasp at any feeble excuse not to imprison people who deserve to be banged-up. HMP Berwyn in North Wales is the UK's newest and largest capacity prison cost £250 million to build. That £13.4 billion could have paid for 57 other Berwyn's and with it provided a great many jobs and doubled the amount of prison spaces.

There's some merit in that because you're right that they manufacture money or " borrow" it from the globalists to keep nations in debt and under control. On the other hand there's only so much money creation they can get away with in a non productive society.
The fact that they only create the money with their keyboards doesn't mean that they're going to be generous with it, in fact they use it as another control mechanism , whereas if genuine wealth is created by individuals , then it is individuals who control it
