One week to go

One week until we find out which wraith will rule over us, deatheaters both of them, chosen by other wraiths and deatheaters who care only for themselves and their re-election in two and a half years time.

For the meantime, we have been concentrating on the cost of living crisis for domestic users, but at least their energy is "capped", but for commercial users there is no cap, and some are sing demands for 10x increases in energy. And that's just for October. Increases in January and April next year could mean more multiple increases.

Many in the hospitality industry just won't survive. Coming after COVID, many are barely hanging on, but with this on top, and no real prospect of custom levels remaining anything like normal, tens of thousands will fail. And the jobs that go with them will fail too.

I see nothing short of the potential collapse of the economy.

Possibly.

We just have to hope the right wrath, deatheter or lizard gets in and puts the people and the country before them and their party.

Remember, tax cuts will only benefit those who actually pay taxes, and will benefit more those who pay more tax.

And then there would be nothing to proect businesses.

We are so screwed.

So, enjoy the sunshine while it lasts.
