Nonetheless Brexit finished it off. You seem to be saying that economic mismanagement by the tories overall since 2010 is what brought it down, and that is probably correct.Nothing to do with the fact it's been hanging on a thread for some years,...
I notice you mentioned a pension fund problem again. Many companies have insolvent pension funds and this is mainly because of policy to abolish them. Underfunding the pensions has been an easy target to extract money without workers noticing quickly and is endemic in british industry. It has been part of the transfer of money away from workers and to bosses instead, which dates from around Thatcher. It was a newsworthy scandal in those days that companies rather then contributing to their pensions plans were claiming they had surpluses and taking money out. The value of a pension plan goes down as well as up, and with the investment markets changing it became clear they should never have been allowed to do this. Investment outlook now is utterly different to Thatcher's time, and very much worse.
I think people are very naive what is happening out there. The great game which imperial powers played with soldiers 100 years ago is now played with computers, spies, political leverage, money. Russia has been proven to have intervened to get Trump elected, tried to assit Le Pen in France, and I am sure they intervened to try to asisst Leave. Because obviously they would, to harm the UK and EU.Please we know you think brexit is the devil incarnate and that it will cause the end of the world
Yesterday May made a speech which talked about the housing problem and the great need to do something about it. I am sceptical anything at all will be done by the tories, but what May said she would do is provide 2 bn towards housebuilding, which the news suggested might be around 5 thousand houses for three years, and a conservative spokesman in the same converstaion suggested about 8000. peanuts. 80,000 would be better, but 800,000 for three years more like the numbers needed. At the same time May announce 10 bn to go to the scheme for helping buyers by subsidising their mortgages and allowing them to borrow more than they othewise could. This scheme produces not one single extra house and helps bid up the price of houses (because basically it means people will be paying more than they could othewise have afforded). The tories are putting their money not in housebuilding to cut the shortage, but in deliberately making homes more expensive!
And they think somehow this will make them popular? To people who own banks making the loans, yes.
