Do you think Lego Thatcher will finally realise she can't cut benefits for "growth" now?
GBLB: "Consultancy Oxford Economics is cutting its UK growth forecast after President Trump imposed larger-than-expected tariffs on US imports."
@fkamiah17 I’m so sick of hearing about ‘growth’. How any government policy has to fit the ‘growth agenda’. Growth is simply not sustainable forever, not if we want to live on this planet. But oh wait, they’re not worried about the future. More short-termism. Arrrghh!
@helenclayton It's all they've banged on about for decades, using exactly the same methods to achieve it, and they've failed. This is what happens when government is nothing more than the handmaiden of big business.
I guess you saw that article in the Graun today? Climate's going to destroy capitalism. Good. I wish it would fucking hurry up.
@fkamiah17 it really fucks me off too.
@helenclayton It just never ends. Thank fuck it's spring.
