Reform’s Matt Goodwin’s having an absolute mare this week: 😬Accused of sexual harassment 🤑Apparently receiving a dodgy £10k/month salary from Russia 🫤Now it emerges his numbers just didn’t add up in his academic position at a right wing think tank…
I left university in 2019 with £49,600 of debt. A few months later, I became an MP and have since received a salary that puts me in the top 5% in the country. 6 years on, the repayments from my salary have brought this total to down to £48,600 - just £1,000 less. This isn't an issue for me - I give away a big chunk of my salary anyway - but if MPs are barely making a dent in their student loan debt after 6 years of repayments, what chance do other graduates have?
Wow.
The founding economic myth of the dying old world is that we can't afford to pay for a better one. It's a lie. Watch Richard Murphy to find out why youtube.com/watch?v=Q03GKw… Then reject this tall tale for the rich at every chance you get.
