I will repeat my first post.
I really do not give a hoot what the reasons are for dealing with the cost of living crisis now, as long as it helps those who need it.
Can I just remind you, before Johnson revisits his 'Captain Hindsight' nonsense, that Labour has been calling for a windfall tax for weeks. And an emergency budget.
I care very much about the reasons for dealing with the cost of living crisis. I said this in a post somewhere else recently; that a government should regard it as its DUTY to protect its citizens and do all it can to mitigate the effects of the crisis. As such, they should have acted some time ago.
There is something quite despicable about a government which has to be forced into doing the right thing Forced into lockdown, forced into providing food for poor children during the pandemic and now forced into a windfall tax and help for people who are struggling.
I'm pleased that something is happening, but there is no virtue in what they are doing.
