Liz Truss’s Historic Gamble With the UK Economy Is Already Unraveling

  1. For it to be a gamble there would need to be a possibility that it would work, which there isn’t. Because trickle down economics has never worked. And never will. It’s not an even an economic theory at all, it’s a just a lie fabricated to sell tax cuts for the rich to the common working person.

  2. It’s not a gamble because the desired outcome was a certainty. Tax cuts were the goal. Tick. Growth and all the other bullshit is just a smokescreen. Public services will be cut. The tanking pound and stock market is an opportunity to buy up distressed assets on the cheap. This is real the Brexit opportunity.

  3. Investors speculating on the market does not show if the gamble is working or not. This is simply people reacting to the decision.

    People have been shorting Tesla for years. So by you logic it’s has devalued ? No the opposite happened.

    I’m not saying it’s going to work or the decision was a good decision. But if you use this as evidence you are a fool who has zero understanding..

  4. At the end of the day, neither Truss or Kwarteng really care if the gamble pays off or not as they will not be personally affected by the results.

  5. She hasn’t quite grasped the reality that ‘rich people’ are rich because they hoard and spend other people’s money, so trickle down economics simply doesn’t work.

  6. At least they will now know that the tax cuts won’t work and hopefully not try to use them to buy votes before an election. Thereby hopefully cementing them for an eternity as the opposition.

  7. It’s not about growing the economy, freeing the people, or creating wealth. It’s about transferring wealth upwards.

  8. Liz and Kwasi are labour plants. Starmer has bribed them to bring down the Tories for a generation.
