After promising to grow the U.K.’s economy, Prime Minister Johnson’s policies put them into a cash crunch and citizens face escalating inflation, taxation. The staggering cost of social programs coupled with COVID simply cannot be sustained. Brad Johnson gives his analysis of the situation.

brad johnson here uh from americans from
00:03
intelligence foreignform.org
00:05
it is march 2nd 2021. uh kind of some
00:08
interesting things going on
00:10
in england good old uk the problems
00:13
there are starting to accumulate and be
00:16
serious
00:16
boris johnson has not
00:20
really worked out to be what he had
00:23
promised he was going to
00:26
freeze taxes and do a lot of things to
00:28
try to make the economy start to
00:30
grow again one of the things that just
00:32
is such a no-brainer in england with
00:34
such a horrible
00:35
housing shortage but yet lots of land
00:38
available
00:39
uh you know if they if they allow
00:41
development to take place in different
00:43
areas
00:44
uh but it’s just it’s one of those
00:46
things that’s so badly shackled there
00:48
the the industrial nature of the people
00:52
in england
00:53
has is is basically you know held back
00:56
in
00:56
chains and not allowed to go forward and
00:58
do things of course these are all
01:00
self-inflicted and the kind of
01:03
crappy economy and bringing in
01:05
immigrants and the
01:07
socialized programs that are out there
01:09
that are so expensive
01:11
has put them into it you just absolute
01:13
shambles economically
01:15
with covid on top of it the business is
01:17
being destroyed all of their
01:19
it’s created a cast crunch they’re
01:21
borrowing money hand over fist
01:23
this is where socialism always ends up
01:25
and this is where it’s going there and
01:27
as i said
01:28
boris johnson has really not shown
01:29
himself capable to
01:31
handle this and turn it all around he’s
01:33
he’s
01:35
turning out to be rather a large failure
01:37
and we’re seeing some of the things
01:39
discussed that are there for taxes i
01:41
mean
01:42
um like death taxes in in the uk
01:45
now in some cases are reaching 80
01:48
percent
01:50
80 i mean that means anything that
01:54
that you have that you accumulate in
01:55
your lifetime you’re not able to pass on
01:57
to your children anymore
01:59
if you own a piece of property uh that’s
02:01
that’s worth very much money at all
02:04
uh and there’s an 80 tax on it that your
02:06
children have to come up with
02:08
pay off that debt in order to keep the
02:10
house or
02:11
business property or whatever it is you
02:13
know that’s just untenable
02:15
you you might as well you know get sell
02:18
it get your 20
02:19
out and try to go buy something else i
02:20
mean
02:22
it’s just uh like i said becoming
02:25
untenable but they’re so cash strapped
02:27
that they’re going after everything
02:28
they’re talking about
02:30
raising corporate tax uh you know 19 to
02:33
20
02:33
bringing it up to 23 percent increasing
02:36
income tax
02:37
increasing tax on fuel which that’s
02:40
always a problem because well it looks
02:42
like oh yeah you know we’re only raising
02:44
it you know two cents or five cents
02:46
in the u.s we would use cents there you
02:48
know hey
02:49
they have the based on the pound but at
02:51
any rate how much ever you raise it
02:53
is it increases the cost of everything
02:56
because
02:56
almost every product in your store is
02:58
trucked in that’s how those materials
03:00
get there
03:01
even gasoline is trucked in so all of
03:04
those things
03:05
impact on your life because everything
03:07
is going to go up it’s highly
03:09
inflationary so all of this
03:12
borrowing money highly inflationary fuel
03:15
taxes
03:16
taxing self uh employed all of these
03:19
things like on
03:20
property taxes they’re talking about
03:22
taking those up through the roof those
03:24
are paid annually
03:25
that makes it very expensive to own
03:27
property so
03:28
all of these things are very damaging
03:31
and make the housing crisis there
03:33
worse not better makes inflation start
03:36
to go out of control so
03:37
the economy in england is starting to
03:40
spin out of control
03:42
the inflationary pressures are starting
03:44
to become really great
03:46
and what they’re doing is doubling down
03:48
on weight what made it bad in the first
03:50
place
03:51
so there’s there’s and there’s no
03:52
discussion of anything boris johnson
03:54
said he’s got this
03:55
triple tax law blah blah blah all that’s
03:58
falling apart they’re raising taxes left
03:59
and right
04:01
it is one of those situations that’s
04:03
quickly spinning out of the control
04:05
runaway inflation is next on the menu in
04:07
england
04:08
and from there it just goes downhill so
04:10
this is a
04:11
a very serious problem to our friends
04:14
and partners in the uk
04:18
you’ve got to get your immigration and
04:19
economic policies in order
04:21
you’ve got to throw off this
04:24
socialism and the socialist policies
04:27
that are just
04:28
a boot hill on the uh or a yet boot heel
04:31
on the throat of the economy of your
04:34
country
04:34
this is the same problem we’re facing in
04:36
a lot of the eu uh
04:38
england and the united states and canada
04:40
this this socialist
04:42
uh leech on our backs is just destroying
04:45
the economy worldwide
04:47
and we’ve got countries like china the
04:49
communist countries that are perfectly
04:51
willing and ready to step
04:52
in and take world control and that would
04:55
be such a sad
04:56
place indeed to see a a a
04:59
a world dominated by a communist party
05:02
meaning you’d have one guy
05:03
in charge and anybody anything he wants
05:06
anyone he wants anyone he wants dead can
05:10
be done
05:11
snap over fingers that’s not good for
05:13
anyone this is contributing to it
05:16
england you’ve got to start to organize
05:18
and fight back
05:19
fight back for the traditional values
05:21
the conservative values
05:23
that make society safe bring social
05:26
justice to more people more wealth to
05:28
more people
05:29
than anything and everything else
05:36
combined
