Genuine Q, so don’t get snotty, but what is this actually telling us?
I mean 600 between the household disposable a week is fucking loads , the caller is a clownI think the caller was saying that was between two people. The point is though, if Rachel Johnson thinks that isn't very much - wait until she hears how much disposable income an average household as.
Especially if he and she have car plans/Electric etc, subscription to gym, country club,etc , holiday factored in?I mean 600 between the household disposable a week is fucking loads , the caller is a clown

Doesn't matter really wingy , it's the UK average wage alone disposable, over 30k to live doing what you choose after all bills are paid ..
That the caller and the host are clueless wankers , as I stated..What's the conclusion then?
It's top 5% , if people struggle on 100k they are living an expensive lifestyleDepends what you call bills. If it still has to pay to run a car and counts tv subscriptions, mobile phones, broadband as non essential bills, holidays, clothes etc all to come out then certainly a lot less. Appreciate it's more than most, but not a million miles from where we are and running two cars, following the city and a couple of holidays a year, doesn't leave much over.
There's been a few people saying stuff like this recently. Sure they'd all be happy if the government announced a huge increase in minimum wage and benefit paymentsI think the caller was saying that was between two people. The point is though, if Rachel Johnson thinks that isn't very much - wait until she hears how much disposable income an average household as.
I suppose it's relative.
I haven't listened to the interview, but if someone on 100k is saying they can't do some of the things they used to do, for financial reasons, then I'm sure they're being genuine.
Same as someone on 30k can't do some of the things they used to do.
It's just those things are probably very, very different!
But if the 100k person is saying it's tough to put the food on the table then clearly that's a load of shit.
I’m left wing
100k is not a poverty wage and I won't even argue it . If you're struggling on a household wage of 100k then you're a fucking melt .. end of story
Again , it's top 5% in terms of household income

Yes, July is going to be fun for us when our fixed rate comes to an end.It’s hard to have sympathy for households earning £100K a year but the fact is like most households pre Truss they were probably living within their means. When Truss shocked the economy with her budget it made mortgages unaffordable for many households as all of a sudden even people on £100K a year were effected as their mortgage probably reflected their income, same as anyone else with a mortgage under a certain age.
It’s beyond the peakYes, July is going to be fun for us when our fixed rate comes to an end.
Some empathy might be useful lolPeople who have been on large incomes for many years but still have mortgages (and then moan about them) do my fucking head in......
Financially illiterate morons.

Yep I agree with thatYou’ll be OK. It’s roughly back where it was. Mine went up by over 50% at its worse. Proper shitty six months or so.
Yep I agree with that
I suppose it’s the imbalance that comes when middle class or upper class people suffer financial issues as opposed to those in our society on minimum wage or zero contracts
It’s like the Tory that said you shouldn’t need to use foodbanks if you managed your money properly?
Don’t know the answer but there needs a huge reset in property
Think the year of jubilee referred to in the Old Testament is a good idea but obviously completely impractical
Let's dilly dally Bank of England uneducated retard!Yes, July is going to be fun for us when our fixed rate comes to an end.
I’m increasingly of the belief house prices are accountable for a large portion of this country’s problems. So I think you fix it by building fucking loads of houses.

The issue of private landlords collecting more housing that they don’t need is the elephant in the room.In an ideal world I'd agree, but we already cant build houses fast enough to deal with population. I know anyone suggesting capping immigration is labelled a racist on here, but surely limiting at least until we can house everyone would be a long way towards solving the issue.
Co's there's no alternative?The issue of private landlords collecting more housing that they don’t need is the elephant in the room.
Would it? The housing that would be freed up by keeping migrants out (which comes with its own costs) is not going to be automatically desirable to native Brits.In an ideal world I'd agree, but we already cant build houses fast enough to deal with population.
