How about £10,000 to every person on all benefits. It would never happen but it would be very welcome.

I disagree, that people on £40,000 a year need help. I'm afraid they'll have to suck it up.

No way would I give them any money so they can still go on the winter holidays, or restaurant trips.

Conservatives
not likely to be that nice


Some think it could cause a change of Government
if the Conservatives fail.

Think about all the money the government has wasted in just the last three years. Track and Trace, over 22billion I think. All the money lost on wasted medical equipment - burned deemed no good. Billions there. Then we have fraud which cost another £20billion.

Then my idea doesn't seem so 'crazy'.

Crazy thing is … everyone wanted Boris out and manufactured a way to oust him ( basically a couple of butties at an afternoon gathering in his own back garden) … yet he’s probably the only person who could have sorted this energy mess out … like he did with the vaccines , T & T and the furlough system


He’d have thrown billions at the issue and we would not all be in such a worried state

The thing that bothered me was that the so-called Chancellor equated people on as low as £3,500 per year benefits in the same position as someone on £40,000 a year. That someone like that also needs help. No way. Nobody on that much needs any help. Target it to the people on benefits and the actual low paid.
