*Instead of paying out miserable one-off handouts, energy companies should be forced to reduce the price of their energy, rather than levying one-off tax on them, and like in Belgium, wages, pension, and benefits should be automatically uprated with the rate of inflation.*

You can help working class by stopping council tax payments every month and put money back in people's pocket that way. Didn't the tories bring that in?.

How about increasing wages so that people don't have to rely on in-work benefits & hand outs?. How this has been allowed, championed and deliberately designed by this Government via the Universal Credit system is extraordinarily barmy

1.2m jobs rather represents LOW SkILLED Low QUALiFIed occupations being in high demand, as U.K. is driven on low quality jobs being paid like those with degree, qualifications(reason why so many low skilled emigrants wants to get in as in Europe they would never been paid above qualified workers) Such tube driver earns 60k - similar to Senior Manager with degree, qualifications (with student debt!) Such lorry Hdv driver, such building contractors, such headhunters(being in majority unqualified, lacking qualities ciandities they recruit for!) Such estate agents etc!! Uk labour market isn’t based on HIGH SKILLED LABOUR but low skilled occupations! ONLY IN UK is.such narrow.gap in salaries between low skilled physical workers (cabbage pickets paid £62k!!) and graduates, candidates investing thousands pounds in their degree in their qualifications!! UK is run like a STRIP CLUB when only Bojo lads this 2% the wealthiest people enjoy low NI AND OTHER TAXES! All costs have been cascaded to the lowest on income, when the rich are getting thanks to torries Crooks!!

[@jackwatsonepic626]

Well if you can waste 37 billion on track and trace then surely you can help the public out again And does this mean millionaires are entitled to it aswell who clearly don't need a hand out ??
