Thanks for this, although I’m obviously sad for Canada I’m feeling a little better as my ex who is Canadian keeps on that we will have a better life in Canada and everything is wonderful.We have a liberal government in Canada and Trudeau is absolutely shite. We are in a similar state to the Uk albeit not quite as dire yet.
I don't think it matters what party you have. We've had almost a decade of Trudeau and in a shambles. I think and hope the Conservatives get in next election. They are gaining popularity as people are fucking fed up with all of the taxes Trudeau has added. We have a carbon tax so we are taxed for heating our home or cooking with gas. It's a joke.
Less and less people have any disposable income and it is killing small businesses. Some simply cannot afford to give a raise to their employees but a LOT of them refuse to give the profit back to the same loyal employees during the good days.I finally got through the video, it's interesting. Mortgages and rent hoover up everything, it must affect the economy as everyone has less for everything else.
I work for a small business and the pandemics were the best years they ever had. It's dropped massively since - but you are correct, they fired some staff during the pandemic!Less and less people have any disposable income and it is killing small businesses. Some simply cannot afford to give a raise to their employees but a LOT of them refuse to give the profit back to the same loyal employees during the good days.
I work with small businesses on a daily and the difference in terms of profit between last year and this one is night and day. The money given during 2020 really helped a lot of businesses to stay afloat. However, many raised their prices instead of giving some of it back to their employees.
You'd be shocked to see the amount of business who made record profits in 2020-2021 but decided to fire their employees. One lady was complaining about her shipping costs (less than 5k) even though she makes over 250k per month. The greed of a few is causing major consequences to majority of the population globally.
It's if you get the guarantee element of pension credit, it's automatically given out for the core group.I’m sorry if this is a dumb question but is the warm home discount only going to be available to those on certain pensions?
I see you also have to be deemed a high usage household. Wtf are they playing at?
I've stopped shopping at Morrisons because of the prices and moved to Aldi/Lidl. I know there have been wholesale price rises on everything but Morrisons do seem to have taken them to the extreme end. I've got a suspicion that their take over by a private equity firm has something to do with it, as when one of those get involved the first thing they do is shift their debt onto the taken-over comapniy's books, so Morrisons are probably looking at huge interest payments plus returns to their owners.I had an asda delivery yesterday evening, out of 42 items there was 20 substitutions/out of stocks. I ordered strawberries and Raspberries for my kids, didn't even substitute them didn't have any fruit at all!!!
Went down to morrisons today to get the fruit I didn't get delivered and it was extortionate!!!! Last week it was two punnets of rapberries or strawberries for 3.50 today it was £4!!!! My kids eat that in about 2 days!
I only go in morrisons now if I really need something and its the closest option! I noticed alot of things has gone up in prices when I was in there today, not for the first time. Every time I go in I seem to walk around in a bit of shock at what I'm seeingI've stopped shopping at Morrisons because of the prices and moved to Aldi/Lidl.
