@mattletiss7 Entitled / Deluded
And exactly the reason she is unemployed
English

@RupertLowe10 100% correct
Both depressing and frustration, having run my own business for 30 years it has never been harder.
Tax burden and costs through the roof.
Do these idiots not realise if small businesses close there is nobody left to pay for rate welfare state. I employ 14 people.

I sit in Parliament listening to these ministers, and it’s all just so depressing - the vast majority of them have never run a business, and it SHOWS. You would not believe how bad it is.
They think ‘work’ means turning up to an office between 9 and 5, answering a few emails, and going home at the end of the day. Nice lunch break, few coffees away from the desk, probably a smoking break or several. It doesn’t - not for the millions of men and women who actually create the wealth that funds the state.
Running a small business isn’t a job. It’s a way of life. It is life. It’s 24/7/365. It’s relentless. You are the accountant, HR department, compliance officer, cleaner, marketer, and customer service team - all in one. There’s no sick pay, no safety net, and no taxpayer-funded pension waiting for you.
Holiday? Good luck. If you do manage to get away, it’s checking the phone all day, every day. Wife/husband obviously getting pissed off. We’ve all been there...
It’s all on you. Every invoice chased, every tax deadline met, every bit of red tape navigated is on you. And if you make one mistake, one error, one small slip-up, the state comes after you - in a relentlessly efficient manner that is never afforded to us when we ask questions of it.
Most MPs have no idea what that feels like. They just don’t. We’re going to see more of this in the budget I’m sure. More hurt. More pain. More tax. They don’t get it.
They don’t understand that when a small business owner gets hit with another tax, it’s not absorbed by a ‘budget’ - it’s taken straight out of their family’s pocket.
There is no ‘deficit’ in the business world - that’s called going bust.
And they certainly don’t understand what real risk looks like. Politicians can vote through a policy on Monday and forget it by Tuesday - a small business owner lives with the consequences of that policy for years, decades. The MP monthly salary is safe. It always has been. In the public sector before, and in the public sector after - if not that, some charity/NGO funded entirely by the public sector.
GET A REAL JOB.
If MPs actually spent a week running a small firm - paying suppliers, tackling VAT, navigating health and safety law, sorting out HR issues, chasing clients for payment, trying to expand while staying compliant with everything from GDPR to local planning regulations - they’d legislate very differently. I can promise you that.
They’d realise that most of Britain’s problems could be solved by the state doing less, not more.
Cutting tax. Simplifying regulation. Slashing back the HRification of the country. Trusting people who actually produce things to get on with it.
Instead, we have a political class that talks endlessly about ‘growth’ while brutally punishing the only people capable of delivering it - especially going after the family businesses/farms, which is a particularly spiteful policy decision.
Small business owners are people who work harder than almost anyone in Parliament could imagine - and who are treated worse for it.
Britain’s small businesses don’t succeed because of politicians, they survive in spite of them.

Important Update please share .
This video was passed to me by the investigator/originator Ian Simpson two weeks ago, whose website is stoptheinvasion.uk
He told me
1/ He filmed it in August 2023
2/ He offered the clip to Nigel Farage and GB news in 2023 but neither responded to him.
3/ In 2023 vehicle RX68YKA was operated by GXO one of the largest transport companies in Europe.
4/ GXO were contracted to the UK Government via The Home Office.

💥Please watch and share ! This video explains why successive Governments have failed to ‘smash the gangs’.This is because they are actually complicit in moving illegal migrants into the UK.They return the boats to France for reuse.They don’t even bother deflating them !

@GNev2 was unimpressed by Gabriel celebrating in Haaland's face after Odegaard's early goal and later, Myles Lewis-Skelly could be seen mimicking the Norwegian's celebration... 🎙️💬

@FAspokesperson @Arsenal @premierleague This is a joke Right ?
Players comparing about a poor decision that was then overturned on appeal
so you charge THEM for Officials being poor to hide the embarrassment
Quality
English


Arsenal players wrong to surround the ref but...1) they were complaining about a wrong decision that then got overturned; & 2) FA has to be consistent & charge every team whose players surround the ref. Refs deserve respect. Players deserve consistency and correct decisions. #AFC

I’m pleading with this country’s justice system to bring the death penalty back for this sick individual! Make an example of him please.. Locking him up just isn’t enough! He targeted young innocent children.. He doesn’t deserve to live another day never mind be fed an housed at our expense! Just get rid of him and everyone like him..
