The entire economic thinking of the Starmer regime is off the stupidity scale. Nothing they are doing can improve the economy.

There are conflicting choices in respect of retail pricing versus affordability. The first step that they are ignoring is to divert all efforts to economic growth. This requires a sound plan to which lenders will encourage us to borrow. Above all, Labur is ill-suited to this task as we have seen.

A tariff war with China requires a counter-balancing plan for the reasonable supply and manufacture of displaced items. It's the "manufacture" element that makes this impossible to achieve so re-balancing the economy to allow for cheap imports is required. Politicians do not have the skills necessary to do this and will need sound business/economic advice from the business sector.
