Worth remembering that UC was designed by the dwp under Ian duncan smith, who later resigned from cabinet over it's implementation.
The sudden increase in friends, those trying to be friendly and those wanting jobs.

The "policies" of the Labour and Conservatories are both various shades of grey.

Like the d-ck heads during covid and wanted everything, wanted to be sudden Gardeners or thought they could grow their own veg on their tarmac drives etc???
We get the " new ones" that move into the village, try to befriend you, pick your brains about everything and once in with the local clique, dump you like a stone??
F them all to start with is the best approach.

things went through a silly phase, where it was more profitable not to work, and draw benefits, than it was to work.
Change in benefits takes a long time, as soon as its 'suggested', all the 'do-gooders', or whatever you want to call them, start protesting, challenging etc, call it cruel and discriminating.....
same as illegal immigration, everybody moans the guv is 'failing to control it', what happens when they try something, court challenges ECHR, cruel etc, but they never say how they will stop it.
The big worry, what happens when the recession hits, and multiple thousands lose jobs, where's the money coming from, to pay their benefits ? Taxes are at their highest already.
Its not just a UK problem, we are quite well off, its a global problem, in far to many countries, survival is to expensive, food energy and housing, are all to expensive for the poorer end of societies. Just think of rent, mortgages, and energy in the UK, its breaking people, to dear, that's before food costs, which really need to rise, as we know.
global society is in a mess, it needs a massive reset, how the feck that happens no idea. But unless 'something' alters, society is going to break down.
there is talk about ww3, the problem is not only foreign nut cases stoking it up, its also the breaking up, of normal societal rules, literally because the poor cannot survive on the benefits, that guvs increasingly cannot afford to pay.
as the word goes, 'we are only 4 meals away from social meltdown'.

Well I'll be voting lib Dems in the hope that them and Labour get a chance to form a government. Hopefully that'll stop labour doing anything too stupid.
I'd start my own party if I didn't dislike people soo much...
