And as for inflation, well the electorate voted for Boris. We were all warned of dangers of Brexit, and then the dangers of Boris. But we told we are whining remoaners, communists, lefties etc etc etc.
The country is hugely in debt, we rely on cheap imports all of which require hard currency to buy and we have to compete on the global market for everything we import. Nobody wants British goods and services - they simply don’t trust the UK so our currency is devalued, which compounds the fact that we have to compete on the global market, making everything we buy even more expensive.
And as for wages going up, well if employers are having to pay more for the goods, their margins are going down, so that means less money to pay wages, and certainly much less money to pay bonuses etc.
And because of our political shenanigans, capital is moving away from the UK - investors can move their capital elsewhere, which means lack of investment in the UK, which means less competitiveness, which means continued downward spiral.
I have lived and worked in the developing world, believe me we have seen nothing yet. Take Zimbabwe - a basic new Toyota Hilux costs over US$100,000 by the time it arrives in the country and all the import taxes, sales taxes etc etc are paid. A typical middle class Zimbabwean still cannot afford a car.
