Default Why arent the left pleased the economy has recovered?
The 3 main stock markets are up massively ...between 18% for ftse 250 to 31% rises for ftse 350 and ftse100
Thats added over £200 billion to our overall wealth in just 8 months
Its at its highest in history, so too is the US stock market

The unemployment rate has fallen again to lowest in decades
BUT I DO accept that 900,000 jobs are zero hour contracts...thats still only 2.3% of the total of jobs

The reality is the british economy has created more jobs than the rest of europe combined in the last 7 years, with nearly 7 million new jobs

The tories like labour have failed to tighten regulations on these corrupt corporations, though they have at the very least gotten more tax out of them

The tories policy of raising vat is an absolute disgrace

The steel industry is saved.

The left are looking so bitter and illogical and deluded. Yes they have had a few minor so called successes in stopping the odd bill, but even the working tax credits, the left took such a ridiculous moral high ground they went too far and we still end up in the same loop where everyone is too scared to work more than 16 hours in case they lose some or all their benefits.
The left like every other issue ignored the reality and buried their heads in the sand

They need to acknowledge good economic news, they need to listen to the public and they need to serve the people not themselves

Omg learn what stock markets are measured in. They are not up, they have never been up. Ive genuinely explained this to you over three times since June.

The stock markets appear up (to people who dont give it ten seconds of thought) because the pound is down. Stock is measured in sterling. Christ.

None of that is accuarate, including your use of the words 'youre' and 'blasphemy'.

Anybody can learn the basics of any subject if they research it once. People dont actually need a career in economics to understand that the stock market is measured in sterling lol.
