      Though Brexit is definitely part of it, this is the whole Tory austerity programme from the Tory/Libdem coalition onwards.

      Tory means Tory.

      Their repeated claim that their party is good for the economy, unlike “magic money tree looney lefty liberals”, is about as believable as the scrawny kid who used to come in the pub and tell everyone “he could kill a tiger with one punch, and he’d got SAS training off of his dad, who was also a ninja”.

    I’m pretty sure I lost out more than that due to the wage decrease I took during COVID, which I assume hasn’t been calculated for, since it isn’t mentioned.
