Why would you ever vote Conservative I'm curious since the age of Thatcher they have pushed Supply Side Trickle Down economics that has devastated large parts of the country and Reform are a more extreme version. Germany managed to keep large parts of its manufacturing during the change we just boarded ours up, the Thatcher economy was kept afloat by Asset Stripping, Oil Money and Council House giveaways with the money plowed into bribing a generation. Blair / Brown slowed it right down as soon as Cameron came in it was back to Supply Side Trickle down with devastating effects which are going to see 2 decades of economic stagnation. As an example 2 billion was in the budget for millionaire pensioners that had to be paid for by freezing tax allowances at the bottom This is what you kept voting for quote Luxury goods boom in Britain as super-rich youngsters buck the recession Rich kids fuel sales of brands such as Burberry, Louis Vuitton and Gucci They’re young, rich and mortgage-free, and the scions of the 1% are having a roaring twenties. Despite the economic gloom currently shrouding the UK and many other western countries, sales of luxury brands have been booming and growing numbers of buyers are young adults. Swiss watches, Louis Vuitton trainers, rare Birkin bags and 81-year-old whiskies are among the products that are fuelling impressive growth in the bottom lines of luxury brands such as LVMH, Burberry and Kering. Imports of Swiss watches to the UK were up by 31% in the first half of 2022, according to the Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry – the average spend at the Watches of Switzerland group being about £6,000. Meanwhile, sales of watches below £2,500, sometimes referred to as “mid-range”, are falling.
