hackey lad Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Because he is a Tory, they play down everything, they make out everything is great, when in fact, its quite the opposite... So , let me get this right . You think Hammond deliberately lied , to make us all think there were no unemployed and all in the garden is rosy and we all would fall for it ?

taxman Posted November 19, 2017 Author Share Posted November 19, 2017 Do you believe , Hammond believes there are no Unemployed ? I believe he is so out of touch with real people's lives that he couldn't give a toss if people are unemployed because he's too busy cutting Corporation taxes and making Universal Credit claimants wait 6 weeks before getting benefits. Do you believe he gives a toss about unemployed people or people who have to wait 6 weeks for a benefit payment, whilst being threatened with eviction or people who die whilst waiting for benefits. Is this what you are fervent about? No compassion? I look forward to you becoming poor, homeless and unemployed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna B Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 There are 1.4 million unemployed. There are also huge numbers now self employed who are basically having to scratch a living from 0 hours contracts and the 'gig' economy. Then there are the one's who are valiantly trying to start their own businesses with their savings and redundancy money, but the success rate is very low. And this is just the fallout from the de-industrialisation of the past, from which many have never recovered. They have not all moved into well paid, full time, new careers, etc. I doubt the next wave of unemployment from AI, digitisation, robotics etc will fair much better. It is, after all, all about reducing the workforce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I1L2T3 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 well he is pretty stupid Hmmm, he’s the only senior minister in the government with a viable and suitably pragmatic approach to Brexit. He might appear out of touch and chose a stupid form of words, but he is very useful to remainers right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
