Given the Coventrian seemed to live in a fortress / palace in finest Finham, I'd suggest car workers are at least compensated monetarily for the hassle. That's the best thing to do, pay people accordingly.how can a factory worker make life easier while his white collar worker in the same business can by staying at home?
How will your oh so precious labour party address that?

He only needs to get a certain number of Astutes to see him as a man of the people, thoughYeah, Alexander de Pfeffel johnson is really on the side of the working man.
With over time, etc, the people I know who have worked in the factory at Jag have been paid extremely well. And they got paid for every hour they worked.Given the Coventrian seemed to live in a fortress / palace in finest Finham, I'd suggest car workers are at least compensated monetarily for the hassle.

Stop putting words in my mouth, I only speak the truth.He only needs to get a certain number of Astutes to see him as a man of the people, though

I know you're a Tory apologist and contrarian, but towing the line of it not being allowed because it's unfair to 'working class' people is just utter bollocks.Nice things that make middle class peoples lives easier where’s factory worker has to slog to work as he’s a bit thick . Trap set fell into
The irony is Grendel is trying to pretend he's sticking up for working class people yet he's the only one being classist by saying working class people only do manual jobs.
I’m not sure the gatemen were paid more. Although they did wear white collars.Well I mean his job at JLR wasn’t at all related to making cars yet I assume got paid more than those on the shop floor.
Typical white collar bourgeois
Oh dear Tony know copying IRA o days not very funny one liners
Haven’t heard the interview yet but apparently Martin Lewis went ballistic on the radio this morning blaming not just the government but also the energy regulator for allowing energy cost to be artificially inflated.It's just one shameful ill informed comment after another regarding the cost of living crisis with no action to actually try and solve it.
Im at the point where I think it's that bad I'll probably vote for starmer.

Anyone hear him this morning who can shed some light on the specifics?
See, most of the time I avoid things like this, as it tends to be someone magnifying the bad things. But... I listened to it. And obviously I'm not the target market of that statement, but it beggars my belief that anybody with an ounce of empathy can vote for somebody who says that.What do you mean they don't know how to solve it?
They've cracked it - just get a better job
Is there not a difference between inflation because people are going mad spending on luxuries and inflation because the cost of the essentials is going thought the roof? I appreciate the end result is the same but if people can't afford food, heating etc just telling them they don't need more money doesn't seem the answer.So contrary to the advice from the good minister today the Governor of the Bank of England is discouraging people from earning more money because it will drive inflation. We are in a mess.

Yeah, what Baileys probably struggling to communicate is he’s worried about wage price spiral - because of inflation, workers demand higher wages, employers then raise their prices to cover the higher wages and so we go on and on, pushing inflation higher and higher. I’m sure he wants people to earn enough to live though
To avoid this everyone needs to play fair, which includes petrol companies not doubling their profit per litre which is what’s happening at the moment….oh and clowns like Putin not causing gas, oil, wheat prices to spiral out of control by continuing a senseless war
Bailey (and the Fed and ECB) should’ve stopped printing money and started raising interest rates a lot earlier though, mayve helped
Looks like the BofE is getting it’s wish anyway.
Job vacancies outpace unemployment for first time

Yeah he's talking about inflationary pressures pushing up the cost of living and thus pushing up inflation.
But if he's worried about that how does raising interest rates help? People don't have enough money to cover the essentials, how does raising the cost of their mortgage do anything other than create more calls for wage increases, exactly what he says would be a problem.Yeah, what Baileys probably struggling to communicate is he’s worried about wage price spiral - because of inflation, workers demand higher wages, employers then raise their prices to cover the higher wages and so we go on and on, pushing inflation higher and higher.

The thing is though, that this is cost-push rather than demand-pull inflation. At the moment anyway, it's not driven by higher wage demands, it's driven by rising prices primarily because of Brexit impacts, and rising energy costs.
Raising interest rates is a bit of a blunt instrument for this kind of inflation, this isn't too much money chasing too few goods so taking cash out of people's pockets is (as usual) likely to hurt those with less and (strangely enough) lead to increased wage demands. Then we might move into demand-pull scenarios, I guess.
I'd suggest that what needs to happen is for the Government to get control of the energy sector - at the moment they're profiting hugely at the expense of the entire country.
Similarly, rather than adding costs to imported goods from our largest trading partner, the EU, with a completely ideological approach, we need to get back to the low friction 'oven ready' deal that apparently people voted for.
Like every recent economic crisis, the Tories will sell this as 'we all need to tighten our belts'. In reality though, the very rich (who of course fund the Tories), will continue to increase their wealth. If the pie gets smaller they'll just expect a bigger slice.
