Are you thinking of Tory former Housing Secretary Robert Jenrick, who unlawfully approved a billion-pound development scheme for Tory donor and pornographer Richard Desmond, after they enjoyed a cosy chat over dinner? His hasty intervention was timed to save the developer between £30m and £50m in infrastructure levies.

If they had better skills, they would have more choice and be able to drive up their wages.
You understand how inflation happens? probably not.
meanwhile the government spends millions nationalising the rail sector, which had already been nationalised.

unlawfully? So he's in prison now, yes?
As do you
If fact, I guarantee you pay a smaller percentage than I do, as you actively seek out ways to.
Me?
PAYE, and some premium bonds. I no longer have an ISA.
wages used to be better, they’ve stagnated for 17 years
In the last 60 years ratio of lowest paid employee to CEO of a business has gone from 20 to 1 upto 200 to 1
Yet in the last 17 years the top 1% have seen their wealth increase exponentially.
living costs like rent, gas, electricity, food used to be far more affordable.
So clearly the problem is not simply getting a better job, is it? The problem is wealth inequality

Labour are having a go, time to give it up
normally inflation sees wages and goods and services increase together.
In last 17 years wages have stagnated, costs have gone up…..but the very wealthy have seen their wealth skyrocket.
Please explain what inflation has to do with it
You have evidently avoided looking at the case.
Additionally, Jenrick waived affordable housing rules, saving his pornographer dinner buddy another £106million
Yep, that's Tories for you.
Yep, that's Tories for you.
Speaking of buddies, Jenrick had a neighbour who was a Tory councillor, who did him quite a favour.

You've shared sufficient information previously for me to know that your "guarantee" is incorrect.As do you

PAYE, and some premium bonds. I no longer have an ISA.
You are PAYE and do not do self assessment. That is sufficient for me to know that both the tax paid as a percentage of your income as well as the amount, is significantly less.
For Year ended April-25 I will pay 43% of my income in tax and national insurance. This is neither a small percentage nor a small amount.
As I said, it's easy to be generous with other peoples money. Those with the broadest shoulders etc.. We all need to chip in.. yep I've heard it all, from people on the basic or higher tax band.

So your guarantee was bulls*t - thought so. maybe now you can accept why if I voted Labour, I'd be a turkey voting for Christmas.What took you so long?
Let me guess, income £12k.
Meanwhile company dividends are paying handsome returns.
