        There were critical flaws in the global management of the pandemic, of which europe was not immune. Perhaps more importantly, is the financial stress seen across europe through the pandemic, has been higher than that of the 2008 financial crisis. The impact on employment and income levels coupled with un stable interest rates and the ongoing cost of living crisis and financial strain experienced by households.

        The need for more resilient economic policies and measures to support households and mitigate the impact of future economic shocks, which saw the UK government introduced the Furlough, which has left a significant mark on the the UK’s financial landscape. Similar schemes were run across europe and as we stand today european manufacturing powerhouse’s are facing difficulties similar to us – Tell me, did we really do any worse?

        The economy remains fragile from the remnants of the pandemic, the necessary debts of the pandemic (i.e furlough) remains upon us, businesses are still struggling, Labours increases to NI, followed by minimum wage increases by 4.1%  from April 2025  and Again this budget is not what business’s want and will have quite the oposite effect to what Labour wants.

          Well according to the OBR, she’s going ahead with taxing EV’s per mile.  We do around 8000 miles a year so it will cost us about £20 a month. Was always going to happen.

              She didn’t mention this in her speech though – from the budget document:

              In effect an ‘AP Tax’ as well as 12% Insurance Premium Tax!

                7000 miles per year £105 for me
