This was my comment - it relates to yours: £60 MILLION FOR APPRENTICESHIPS - STOP LIVING IN 1980 The UK needs to invest £4 TRILLION in buildings and infrastructure over the next 10 years £553 BILLION is needed for new schools alone. The UK state has not spent ANYTHING on infrastructure of maintenance since 1975 - 50 YEARS of ZERO investment. Stop talking as if £60 million means anything, or £28 billion for green stuff will make ANY difference - its 2024! ONE SEWER in London cost £5 Billion - you all live in 1980's numbers £1 million is PENNIES today ---!--- None of these commentators can get a grip on the scale of the problem, they all grew up when £60 million was a lot of money and £1 billion an unimaginable amount. So they hear £60 million invested and they give CREDIT, then Sunak might as well throw hot pennies on the floor for us to scrabble for like the rich used to in the 1850's

AND literally, no one will feel any benefit of the interest rates coming down. If you got your fixed rate last week - you are on that for another 2 or 5 years. If you get it next month well you are moving off 1% to 5% - just cost ist now 6% does NOT make you happy

@mrdaveythebaby - It would have been mad - but I bet a lot of people were talked into it...!!! Its amazing what people dont know and its wrong to judge them by it. I lost a business cos I suffered brain damage in a mugging, I didn't know that you could get insurance to cover loss of a critical person in the business, on a more basic level, here in Bulgaria many people fell for predatory loan companies because they DIDNT realise the money needed to be paid back!!! If you grew up and lived for 60 years under communism - why would you understand a loan? I bet thousands signed 5 year agreements, scared by the banks it might go to 15% like in the 80's

@psyick9543 The UK has entered a phase called "sigmoidal collapse" its the opposite of a S curve of technology adoption where its super expensive at first but gets super cheap and everyone buys one until sales level off cos everyone has one. This is like the falling off the top on a rollercoaster we are in that bit as you go over the top, the plunge down near vertical is yet to come, but it will and it will last 8 to 15 years.
