Hey There! I hope you’re enjoying our documentaries so far! Just adding a note here to let you all know that we’re currently releasing a selection of our award-winning documentaries to highlight some topics that are really important to us. The first is ‘Las Abogadas’, following four immigration attorneys over a four-year odyssey as the US government upends every law to protect those fleeing from violence and war ⤵ ruclips.net/video/tgm_d0TaAII/видео.html
This is not the Britain of my childhood. No longer have lived there since 1981. This brings tears to my eyes, the situation in Blackpool is grim, as are many areas.
is it becoming so serious? I never thought so many UK people could live below the poverty line and suffer from winter coldness. it's always a prosperous developed country in our book
Of course you will have to face pre colonisation type poverty because there are no colony left such as India under your control to support you life style.
From İstanbu I am sending my best regards to this guy who changed the business conditions and started to help people suffering from food. You are the hero ...
What a very kind man ….. feeding the poor …… giving them a heated environment for a short while …. I’d do the same if I could afford it but I can’t …. So I help when I can. I hope this man is appreciated …… I know I sure would be ……
I’m an Aussie and shit has hit the fan in Australia it’s no longer the lucky country , high power bills food prices out of control , homeless families and middle class families having to go to food banks.
@@Liz-sq9pf It's all planned mate,the same crap is happening elsewhere..it's the same in the US and Canada and New Zealand.Housing affordability is beyond the wage of the average person..I am fortunate,that I am retired,and own my home.Many in my age bracket (Senior citizen), are now the newest poor,and they join the struggling Family with children,the single woman/man with a low paid job and a Family to feed,house,clothe and educate, and the people relying on the Dole,the student trying to survive.We all need to look out for those less fortunate,and help where we can.
Nah, people just love free stuff - free pizzas and food banks. Not enough money "to put food on the table" but somehow they can always afford another tattoo.
@@kevinsyd2012or a hair straightener or a coffee machines and complaining about having to turn the heat off at 8pm ..most of úd haven't had central heating even installed and have been wearing jumpers since the jumper was invented. They don't know how to be poor thats how rich they were for how long they forgot how to knit a jumper. How to buy rice and beans. How to hand-wash their clothes in cold water like everyone...EVERYONE did 60 years ago. While going through a bloody world war. Not that inequality and corruption are to be tolerated but still the soft way they complain about things does irk me.
I live in Portugal and even though we have many social problems and poverty, health is 100x better than the one you have in UK and there is no such thing as prepaid eletricity which i think is the lowest we can get...
We in Germany also have an economic crisis. Inflation is high, yet a few rich are getting richer and the poor are increasing in number. But it's not nearly as bad as in the UK... I'm a bit shocked about the situation in the UK.
@@SabundyWhat are you telling? The USA don't help! We must pay reparation to the USA till 2099!! SORRY, but you don't know about the poor people in Germany! You have the BIG KING, ask him for help! He's a members of WEF Klaus Schwab YGP. Good luck! AGENDA 2030
Schön, dass Sie eine Rosarote Brille tragen. 😂 Immer mehr Deutsche Facharbeiter verlassen das Land. Nun sind nur 15 Mio Beschäftigten die für über 70 Mio bezahlen müssen 😂 Good luck Lady, wahrscheinlich geht es Ihnen noch zu gut.😂
Habe das Glück, dass meine liebe Eltern sehr, sehr wohlhabend waren. D.h ich habe von den Deutschen niemals Geld erhalten! Natürlich auch nicht von anderen Staaten! Öl mein Lieber, was uns das Glück beschert hat. Mir geht es wunderbar, kommen Sie nach Dubai, wenn Sie das Leben genießen möchten. Höflich bleiben möchte ich trotzdem, deshalb wünsche ich Ihnen einen angenehmen Leben.
Well done Dr. Spencer! Giving these people a healthy activity that promotes exercise, fun and interaction with other people some may not otherwise have. I spent many years promoting volunteering as a volunteer myself and found it helped many people get into work and helped in many other ways too. Giving to others really does help us too.
you've remind me of what someone once said "The mind is the man, the poor is in it and the rich is it too". This sentence is the secret of most successful investors. I once attended similar and ever since then been waxing strong financially, and i most tell you the truth..investment is the key that can secure your family future.
Everyone needs income as their tool, emergency fund as their security, investments as their hope, and budget as their control. Get those in place and you'll feel at peace with your financial picture.
You may never know the value of that €1 you have until you go bankrupt, the bad experience I had last year really made me feel that our school curricula should contain more financial knowledge and education. It is never enough to have a good job, a huge salary and all the luxuries at your disposal. But saving money and investing it wisely is never a bad idea,... I learned how to invest, no matter how little, but life really believed me the hard way
I urge everyone to start somewhere now no matter how small, this is literally the time for that, forget material things, don't get tempted,i became more better the moment i realized this.
I can't help, but compare poverty in the US and the UK - in the US it's just depressing, all the homeless people and the drug addicts. In the UK, there are so many more people to help, to volunteer, like Mark and Danny. They are the salt of the earth. May God bless them and others who show great kindness to their fellow human beings. I was greatly moved.
US is far superior to UK in every way. its worst poorest state alabama is richer than UK you know why? capitalism. UK is socialist ultra-high tax nation
Social marxist a lot of them and they shout we are a democracy while trying to stifle free speech online , gun rights , parental rights for kids and want state produced material in schools online to control the masses .
How in the world is the PM is able to go on luxury vacations while his people are starving and suffering in poverty!?!?!? I sure wouldn’t have the heart or morality to do that to other human beings. It’s just too cruel.
Of course you will have to face pre colonisation type poverty because there are no colony left such as India under your control to support you life style. Britain must be poor!
You heard her say it : "it no longer is possible for me to work. It costs more than my net pay." That's the inversion I said three years ago. It's in the U.S. even more severe because we have more items on our expenses
Electricity sold at 10% more, prepaid ... is actually no risk for the provider, and should therefore come at a discount. It is an insult to the poor. I liken it unto selling food and spices in tiny packaging, but at an increased price per pound, or per ounce. The poor are paying more for little, because that is all they can afford, if they even can afford that under difficult circumstances. 😕 😠 😡 😭
What I dislike more than anything else about the UK are the people who continue to vote Tory regardless of the cruelty they impose on the less fortunate, simply because they themselves are doing ok. Kindness and compassion left the UK when Thatcher became PM. Very sad times indeed.
It doesnt matter if its a progressive or conservative gov in power. We have a "progressive" president and party in power in the US and things are getting worse. Canada has had a "progressive" parliment for years and again shits still hitting the fan. I believe australia likewise is so called progressive in current leadership. There are deeper issues that are global and hurt every single country regaurdless of which party is in power. The world is a shit show right now and the average person cant get by.
Austerity always results from Labour spending like crazy. We have the same problem in Australia, but at least our unions didnt destroy our industries like they did yours in the 70s.
It is tragic to see Britain in this state, empty streets, where even 100s of supermarkets sut down is evidence how much consumption really went down and sighn that country really struggles. BRITAIN has fallen, just as BRITTANIA have fallen when ROME left . UK became real HELL on EARTH for its citizen last 10 years, like it is not even same country it once used to be. The speed of that change is unbelievable... 14th increase of interest rates ? This will impact mortgage holders as well as renters. look officially is UK 6th largest economy , but that does not have to mean it is a prosperous nation. China is 2nd largest and it has 400 million poor out of 1,4 billion people and that is data before Covid and Ukraine war. UK is very misserable place to live in right no
China is 2nd largest and it has 400 million poor out of 1,4 billion people and that is data before Covid and Ukraine war.I hope you get a chance to look at these poor people in China, 4/14 = 28.5%.
@@hellomeng9322 What china considers poor is earning less than 500 dollars a year while making 5,000 to 50,000 is middle class but remember CCP lies worse than western politicans do.
Is that possible? I am from Croatia and here in history we have experienced all kinds of situations, wars always defensive, communism and nothing could destroy us. We have even rebuilt the country and are functioning normally. There is no crime, safe life, people are friendly, we have a lot of foreigners who came to live from the western world, even from America. As far as I can see, we also have foreign workers from Nepal, India, and the Philippines, and they say they are happy and satisfied.
We need to keep supporting and Slava Ukraini-ing, please don't bother with your local problems and support the national heroes of Ukraine, okay? This isn't a request btw, you HAVE to support Ukraine
Working poor struggling to live while the billionaires at the top hoard money. Greed and inequality is squeezing out the middle class and destroying our planet.
How can you have so many poor in the country with 6th largest GDP in the world? The country is rich, you just need to tax the rich and spread the wealth more evenly.
I'm a German from Berlin who lives in LA. It is the same in both cities...It's everywhere now. We need to get up and fight for our rights and freedom ❤
Our current economic system is mathematically unsustainable, and it has so many layers, some of which are: Fiat currency. Tying the limit of currency to some type of precious material *restrains* government money creation and spending. This is essential for maintaining long-term stable currency prices. This is why pre-1914, the value of the British Pound stayed relatively the same for almost 200-300 years. But once they went to fiat currency, in the space of 100 years the currency lost 99% of its value. Unsustainable Welfare States: The welfare states of the post-WW2 world that we live in were created decades ago when natural births out-weighed deaths and countries populations increased via natural births. The baby boomer generation was HUGE, and so creating a welfare/pension system that relied on them working to take care of their parents (the Greatest Generation) was financially sound. What no one anticipated was that the Baby Boomers would have half the number of kids, giving birth to a generation that was their size, if not a bit smaller, which means that the huge welfare and pension states of the Greatest Generation and the Boomers now relied on Gen X and Millennials to provide the tax base to keep it financially solvent. In short, these were welfare/pension plans that were made on the assumption of continuous population growth of new tax papers, but that didn't happen. If you want to know why Western governments seem so hell-bent on mass immigration and importing new tax payers from abroad, this is why, because without it, the whole house of cards collapses. Mass Immigration: This is not a judgement on the value of a person from overseas who migrates to the UK, nor is it a moral judgement on their actions. This is pointing out the simple fact that over the past 20 years in the UK, mass immigration has reduced the % of native British from about 95% of the population at the end of the 90s, to about 75% now. That is a HUGE influx of new people and reduction in ethnic composition in such a short span of time that's not seen outside of war or devastating plagues. All those extra people need houses, they need infrastructure, their kids need schooling, they need access to hospitals, they need all the amenities and infrastructure and access to jobs as the native population, which creates a HUGE strain on the country's carrying capacity. If the supply of houses is limited in any way (and it heavily is) but the demand is going up this much, that leads to huge increases in housing prices, and it injects millions of mostly low-skilled people into the country to compete with working class Brits for jobs, which means their wages stagnate/go down. The UK public at the end of the 90s was never asked if they wanted mass immigration, and every time they've been able to vote on it they've voted overwhelmingly against it, but the government, whether labor or tories, continues it anyway. Taxes: The American colonies revolted against the British Empire over 2% taxes to pay for the 7 years war. 2% taxes. Do you know what the average UK citizens tax burden is today? 25%. A quarter of everything a person makes in the UK, on average, is taken by the government, mostly to pay for the above problems. Add onto this the huge bureaucracy and red-tape you have to go through if you want to start your won business (a business that would hire other people), and the state burden on the average tax payer is just ridiculous. Think of what you could do with that extra money if you only had to pay 10% or so in taxes. Price controls and bureaucratic empire building: Energy prices are enormous in the UK, but they shouldn't be. The hostility against nuclear power by net-zero climate change alarmists is absolutely self-defeating, because nuclear power is the cleanest, most carbon friendly and plentiful power source humanity has yet discovered, yet it is demonised and ignored in favour of cutting down millions of tree's to replace them with inefficient, expensive and polluting windmills (ask Scotland that just cut down 20 million tree's to make way for a wind farm). Bureaucracy and and ever-expanding legal texts gives monopolies to well-connected companies, and then price controls stifles the supply while demand goes up, all of which makes things hideously expensive. I could go on, but the situation of the UK is bleak. The UK was once a golden example of minimal government, community, entrepreneurship and innovation. But today it is a country that's lost all confidence in itself, hates its history, has a mathematically unsustainable welfare/pension state that it still clings to because it's people lack the confidence to see that they'll be fine without it if they just look out for each other, and an ever-expanding, over-bureaucratized state that controls, fines and taxes the hell out of its citizens. To get out of this will either take political leaders with a will of iron (lol) or collapse and rebuilding.
Why doesn’t one woman work while the other baby sit and get paid by the other sister. There is so much wrong with this video. Middle class have no idea how to survive.
Its heading that way in NZ and Australia, both under Labour government's who used to be for the working class - but not anymore. Very informative, but very tragic, and it can happen to anyone of us ! We the people got to help each other out. ❤ Irish/ Maori fella 🙏
Stop supporting the Monarchy ! All the pompous Royal Activities doesn't all this money for thus Family ! I mean come on all your taxpayer dollars went to the Queens buried and Charles Choronation !
@@vicdor1031 The winter where I am is nearly as long as the British one, though not as cold. Also people need air conditioning in the summer as its so hot. Parts of NZ are even further south than me.
As quoted by Gerald Celente👉”When people lose everything and have nothing left to lose, they lose it”…this quote rings so true now as mega millions of people in crisis and things are getting worse!
What I don’t understand is here are mostly native British families on display complaining. Man, woman, child. How do migrant families getting along? It’s the same in Austria, native Austrian families consisting of man, woman and child, if any, are complaining. Meanwhile Turkish families with 3 or 4 children with only the man working because their women aren’t allowed to work never complain.
Brilliant documentary. It's sad that the UK's own media doesn't want to talk about this. I left the UK 20 years ago; ironically I now work in the social sector in germany doing some of the things shown here, but I'm part of a system that's at least functioning and not based on goodwill.
I lived there for several months. To be honest I found Germany to be an incredibly boring place and found the people very dull and materialistic but their social system at least functions to some degree. Makes Britain look 3rd world in most respects.
sounds like you didnt fit very well with the locals, but then you never did send us your best either. it appalls me that you can let things get so bad and still claim to have the name "great" anything other than disappointment. @@CouncilofOneElectronic
"trickle down economics" always seems to work when there is a defecit, never with a surplus. Interest rates have skyrocketed here in Australia. As a result my rent has gone up and, being on a disability pension, this resulted in me having to cancel the charities i was contributing to, among other things. This is capitalism.
Well, the deficit usually only came up in infrastructure expansion or industry revolution. Trickle down thrives when consumers have money to spend on wants and "infrastructure expansion" adding a car, a new roof. Now they're stalling out to keep the ends met. It's silly.
You have a centrally planned interest rate, you have enormous government intervention in the economy yet you blame capitalism. Everything good in your life is because of free market innovation.
I come from across the pond, Dutch. Our prime minister (right wing) was asked: if people can't afford electricity and heating in their homes, what are your plans for that? Prime Minister, that's not even a problem, if necessary I will make companies and rich people pay more tax so that we can compensate lower incomes. And so far, there are no problems Capitalist,my ancesters were the founding fathers. But it works.
The important thing is that Britain and US is spending all their money on important things like the military and keeping their billionaires even richer.
Every country should be able and ready to defend itself. That is not cheap. That's why they all have allies. The bad guy is always just around the corner.
Britain's problem today remains the same as it has always been: landed privilege. The problem goes back many centuries when the first deeds to land were created and land became a commodity to be bought, sold and used as collateral for borrowing. Landed interests in Britain saw to it that almost all revenue raised to pay for public goods and services (and the military required to build an imperial empire) came for producers and not the landed. None other than Adam Smith described the problem quite well in "The Wealth of Nations." No one in power listened. The liberals in the early 20th century tried to get the landed to pay their fair share. They failed. Margaret Thatcher ended the public subsidy of housing in Britain, adding millions of British households (at least nominally) to the landed class. However, their adult children and immigrants faced the worsening problem of every-rising land prices that translated into less and less affordability for housing of any sort. The solution: Give Britain's communities the authority to impose an annual tax on whatever land is held equal to the land's potential annual rental value, while exempting most housing and other buildings from the tax base. Land prices will fall, inflation will disappear. Edward J. Dodson, Director School of Cooperative Individualism www.cooperative-indiidualism.org
Same is happening here in the United States. My bill (for a one bedroom, one bath) was $45-$60/month ten years ago. Today? My bill runs about $120-$160/month for the exact same amt of usage. Instead of getting cheaper it's more that doubled. Something is NOT RIGHT HERE.
Wo*st thing is the royal family's expenses are covered under the Sovereign Grant and the latest official figures put that at £86 million ($106 million), or about $1.60 from every U.K. citizen. But they do not have money for their poor people.
We were always taught that all these other countries like England and Australia were so dignified and glorious but the internet is exposing that all these modern world economies are alike, modern day slavery and exploitation of working class poor for the benefit of the rich. Meanwhile young people are so hypnotized by the social media that they don’t realize that they will never reach the level of stability their parents had. Most parents don’t even have the ability to tell their kids the truth about it. They just let them live at home knowing they can’t afford to pay their own way. 😞😭🥺
Dignified and glorious? Australia is stolen land from its native people and Uk became rich by invading occupying and imposing its brutal exploitation thru its evil empire. Both committed crimes against humanity with impunity. What glorious are you talking about? You seem to confuse crimes against humanity with dignity and glory. Where did you learn such distorted version of history?
@@user-wm2tw Well said and fully agree. Just lookup the list of (former) colonies to see how Britain has misused their naval power centuries ago to invade/claim other’s territories. ‘God made us mighty’ they sing. No, it was your gunpowder that made you mighty. The irony is that Britain is now being invaded by rubber boats on the English Channel, also known as the Channel by the non-British.
Bravo to those everyday people helping others. Hollow words from a King who sits on a golden throne but does absolutely nothing for his ‘subjects’. Get rid of the monarchy!!!!
My heart bleeds... poor Britain, poor British people. How one can survive at 8 С at home ... And waiting for 13 weeks for the appointment at the doctor's is outrageous. "Disengaging state" is a nightmare. I honestly feel very sorry for these ordinary people who always suffer first. We in Russia suffer from our idiots too (and probably 2024 will be worse than 2023) but at least not to this extent. And all the best to Danny, Catriona, Mark and many other people who volunteer to help
The UK can actually afford to help these people, but they cannot afford to keep subsidising the money pit of a 'royal family', giving tax cuts to the rich, allowing people to charge rent that is unattainable, etc.
This is really heartbreaking😥!! I love the Uk and I wish I could just pop over and be a voluntary...we have problems here in Germany , too, but not THAT bad! May God bless all the volunteers and help them never to give up❤❤❤
how about electrical companies producing electricity by burning coal it will make electricity cheaper or on nuclear power. Green transition rising energy costs
Tony Blair also. It was his government who introduced the zero hours contracts, which has left millions of workers without financial stability and allowed many companies to profit enormously from it.
Those prepaid power boxes are common, at least in the Phoenix, AZ region. The power company doesn't automatically install them, you have to ask. I did not mind keeping track of my usage, but I don't remember it costing a higher rate.
This is now happening all over the world even in my country which is Norway, the queues for food banks just keep getting bigger and bigger, the government in Norway doesn't care about the poor either, food prices have doubled here too and people have next to no money, many people are starving and it is clear that the government here has failed in a so-called welfare society. and Norway has more than enough money to be able to take care of its people but this is politics the rich get richer and the poor get poorer
The pizza shot owner who has set up his pizzeria as a food assistance location cannot be shut down by the British Government as it is a privately owned business. More shop owners need to follow this example to overcome the infringement of government trying to stop the support, this is happening in the Americas. President Biden is trying hard to stop churches and food banks from giving out donations of free food to the poor and needy.
In Finland, food banks can not help all the people that need food. That is reality here. We lost our food production to EU. We only pay for EU and get nothing.
What are you talking about ? You are almost self-sufficient and your farmers have strong positions but maybe you are angry like polish farmers that we want to eat bananas or oranges instead of apples.
We are right behind you Britain, the USA is going to crash with you all, you are not alone, the sad part is that no one is doing a dang thing about it. I hope it don't get too ugly and that many lives are lost in the process.
Though the US has its issues too like homelessness and such, but the US has much more resources and social/welfare programs to help the poor than the UK.
@@dianarendon5845In the US it feels like we’re helping more illegal immigrants and sending money to other countries than helping the homeless that are US citizens. The US is projected to spend billions on illegal immigration and US citizens can’t even get free healthcare.
No inflation just greed. Grocery stores hit record profit. I know first hand the prices they buy at have bot changed but they have increased prices. Pichana was 5.99 now 10.99 and their cost is the same.

@codzy3532 , Did you notice that you have a socialist government that you no longer can vote out of office ? It is the same thing in the UK , the US and Canada as well . The socialist leadership are becoming billionaires while the common people can not afford to live ! It may be approaching the time for a world wide revolution against Socialism !
This is what happens when people vote for CON-servative parties. I always say anyone who is not rich, voting for CON-servatives is like chickens voting for Colonel Sanders.
👁👁 If you think, mistakenly may I add, that the poor are better off in any communist country, please look around. Do your homework first. Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, and others come to mind. Open your eyes.
@@heidimisfeldt5685 I'm not thinking of communist countries like the ones you mentioned. They do no good either for their citizens. I'm talking about a Centre Left social democracy like we have here in Canada with strong safety nets. As I'm sure you can see..either extreme to the left or to the right is just as harmful.
I have learned to be strong. You must be a fighter to live in this world. Don't victimize yourself. You can get above your current economic hardship. Start doing little things that improve your physical state. Workout to improve your healthy; it automictically take care of your mental health. Do whatever it takes to make yourself feel abundance, it can be anything. If you have land, grow food. The external world will be a refection on your inner world. As above, so below!
Europe has stopped buying cheap oil & gas from Russia so the prices have gone up. In fact it is widely believed that the UK played a big part in the destruction of the Nordstream pipelines. The British people have been the strongest supporters of the US in this war against Russia so I say to the British people "if you want to see the guilty party, take a look in the mirror" The British people fully deserve everything they get. A good starting point for change would be to stop toadying to the US.
The rich gets richer and the poor die of hunger... The only thing we can do is pray for their souls and hope they will realise that money isn't going to buy them iternity...
Lived in england for 21 years from 1982 to 2002. mostly through the thacher years.

Thatcher's vision was that everyone should own a house so that they could sell it when they needed health care. It's her myopic view of economics that started this, and subsequent governments have carried on the good work.
What constitution? They haven't got a written one and what isn't written down can be changed by the government/parliament of the day. The actually do that, haven't you noticed yer?
This was the natural state for Anglo Saxons before the "discovery" of India. Anglo-Saxons, work your backs off because "revenues" wont arrive from "crown jewel".

Well done Dr. Spencer! Giving these people a healthy activity that promotes exercise, fun and interaction with other people some may not otherwise have. I spent many years promoting volunteering as a volunteer myself and found it helped many people get into work and helped in many other ways too. Giving to others really does help us too.
I just hope someone takes up the Doctors cause once he isn't around anymore 🙏
you've remind me of what someone once said "The mind is the man, the poor is in it and the rich is it too". This sentence is the secret of most successful investors. I once attended similar and ever since then been waxing strong financially, and i most tell you the truth..investment is the key that can secure your family future.
Everyone needs income as their tool, emergency fund as their security, investments as their hope, and budget as their control. Get those in place and you'll feel at peace with your financial picture.
You may never know the value of that €1 you have until you go bankrupt, the bad experience I had last year really made me feel that our school curricula should contain more financial knowledge and education. It is never enough to have a good job, a huge salary and all the luxuries at your disposal. But saving money and investing it wisely is never a bad idea,... I learned how to invest, no matter how little, but life really believed me the hard way
I urge everyone to start somewhere now no matter how small, this is literally the time for that, forget material things, don't get tempted,i became more better the moment i realized this.
I can't help, but compare poverty in the US and the UK - in the US it's just depressing, all the homeless people and the drug addicts. In the UK, there are so many more people to help, to volunteer, like Mark and Danny. They are the salt of the earth. May God bless them and others who show great kindness to their fellow human beings. I was greatly moved.

@@HomestarCrawler Nope :) I'm a woman. "German in Venice" is actually from Krefeld. I just passed his store this last weekend in venice :)
Our current economic system is mathematically unsustainable, and it has so many layers, some of which are:
Fiat currency. Tying the limit of currency to some type of precious material *restrains* government money creation and spending. This is essential for maintaining long-term stable currency prices. This is why pre-1914, the value of the British Pound stayed relatively the same for almost 200-300 years. But once they went to fiat currency, in the space of 100 years the currency lost 99% of its value.
Unsustainable Welfare States: The welfare states of the post-WW2 world that we live in were created decades ago when natural births out-weighed deaths and countries populations increased via natural births. The baby boomer generation was HUGE, and so creating a welfare/pension system that relied on them working to take care of their parents (the Greatest Generation) was financially sound. What no one anticipated was that the Baby Boomers would have half the number of kids, giving birth to a generation that was their size, if not a bit smaller, which means that the huge welfare and pension states of the Greatest Generation and the Boomers now relied on Gen X and Millennials to provide the tax base to keep it financially solvent. In short, these were welfare/pension plans that were made on the assumption of continuous population growth of new tax papers, but that didn't happen. If you want to know why Western governments seem so hell-bent on mass immigration and importing new tax payers from abroad, this is why, because without it, the whole house of cards collapses.
Mass Immigration: This is not a judgement on the value of a person from overseas who migrates to the UK, nor is it a moral judgement on their actions. This is pointing out the simple fact that over the past 20 years in the UK, mass immigration has reduced the % of native British from about 95% of the population at the end of the 90s, to about 75% now. That is a HUGE influx of new people and reduction in ethnic composition in such a short span of time that's not seen outside of war or devastating plagues. All those extra people need houses, they need infrastructure, their kids need schooling, they need access to hospitals, they need all the amenities and infrastructure and access to jobs as the native population, which creates a HUGE strain on the country's carrying capacity. If the supply of houses is limited in any way (and it heavily is) but the demand is going up this much, that leads to huge increases in housing prices, and it injects millions of mostly low-skilled people into the country to compete with working class Brits for jobs, which means their wages stagnate/go down. The UK public at the end of the 90s was never asked if they wanted mass immigration, and every time they've been able to vote on it they've voted overwhelmingly against it, but the government, whether labor or tories, continues it anyway.
Taxes: The American colonies revolted against the British Empire over 2% taxes to pay for the 7 years war. 2% taxes. Do you know what the average UK citizens tax burden is today? 25%. A quarter of everything a person makes in the UK, on average, is taken by the government, mostly to pay for the above problems. Add onto this the huge bureaucracy and red-tape you have to go through if you want to start your won business (a business that would hire other people), and the state burden on the average tax payer is just ridiculous. Think of what you could do with that extra money if you only had to pay 10% or so in taxes.
Price controls and bureaucratic empire building: Energy prices are enormous in the UK, but they shouldn't be. The hostility against nuclear power by net-zero climate change alarmists is absolutely self-defeating, because nuclear power is the cleanest, most carbon friendly and plentiful power source humanity has yet discovered, yet it is demonised and ignored in favour of cutting down millions of tree's to replace them with inefficient, expensive and polluting windmills (ask Scotland that just cut down 20 million tree's to make way for a wind farm). Bureaucracy and and ever-expanding legal texts gives monopolies to well-connected companies, and then price controls stifles the supply while demand goes up, all of which makes things hideously expensive.
I could go on, but the situation of the UK is bleak. The UK was once a golden example of minimal government, community, entrepreneurship and innovation. But today it is a country that's lost all confidence in itself, hates its history, has a mathematically unsustainable welfare/pension state that it still clings to because it's people lack the confidence to see that they'll be fine without it if they just look out for each other, and an ever-expanding, over-bureaucratized state that controls, fines and taxes the hell out of its citizens. To get out of this will either take political leaders with a will of iron (lol) or collapse and rebuilding.

"trickle down economics" always seems to work when there is a defecit, never with a surplus. Interest rates have skyrocketed here in Australia. As a result my rent has gone up and, being on a disability pension, this resulted in me having to cancel the charities i was contributing to, among other things. This is capitalism.
Trickle-down economics is where the super rich piss on you from a great height and tell you it's raining.
Well, the deficit usually only came up in infrastructure expansion or industry revolution. Trickle down thrives when consumers have money to spend on wants and "infrastructure expansion" adding a car, a new roof. Now they're stalling out to keep the ends met. It's silly.
No, this is trying to boost the economy with super low interest rates and cheap debt, which creates inflation and asset bubbles.
You have a centrally planned interest rate, you have enormous government intervention in the economy yet you blame capitalism. Everything good in your life is because of free market innovation.

same around the world. GREED.
And why the hack do Britain put opportunity seekers from Africa in hotels?
Because they need cheap workforce.
Britain's problem today remains the same as it has always been: landed privilege. The problem goes back many centuries when the first deeds to land were created and land became a commodity to be bought, sold and used as collateral for borrowing. Landed interests in Britain saw to it that almost all revenue raised to pay for public goods and services (and the military required to build an imperial empire) came for producers and not the landed.
None other than Adam Smith described the problem quite well in "The Wealth of Nations." No one in power listened. The liberals in the early 20th century tried to get the landed to pay their fair share. They failed. Margaret Thatcher ended the public subsidy of housing in Britain, adding millions of British households (at least nominally) to the landed class. However, their adult children and immigrants faced the worsening problem of every-rising land prices that translated into less and less affordability for housing of any sort.
The solution: Give Britain's communities the authority to impose an annual tax on whatever land is held equal to the land's potential annual rental value, while exempting most housing and other buildings from the tax base. Land prices will fall, inflation will disappear.

Same is happening here in the United States. My bill (for a one bedroom, one bath) was $45-$60/month ten years ago. Today? My bill runs about $120-$160/month for the exact same amt of usage. Instead of getting cheaper it's more that doubled. Something is NOT RIGHT HERE.
Wo*st thing is the royal family's expenses are covered under the Sovereign Grant and the latest official figures put that at £86 million ($106 million), or about $1.60 from every U.K. citizen. But they do not have money for their poor people.
We were always taught that all these other countries like England and Australia were so dignified and glorious but the internet is exposing that all these modern world economies are alike, modern day slavery and exploitation of working class poor for the benefit of the rich. Meanwhile young people are so hypnotized by the social media that they don’t realize that they will never reach the level of stability their parents had.

I have learned to be strong. You must be a fighter to live in this world. Don't victimize yourself. You can get above your current economic hardship.
Start doing little things that improve your physical state. Workout to improve your healthy; it automictically take care of your mental health. Do whatever it takes to make yourself feel abundance, it can be anything. If you have land, grow food. The external world will be a refection on your inner world. As above, so below!
They voted for Brexit so they also voted for bigger inflation. Pro-Brexit people actually thought Brexit was without consequences lol.
In the UK nannies cost $120 per day but an executive at a car company makes $80/day what the hell
An executive with two employees
Britain is poor since they lost all their colonies. This means, "No more loot!"
This is really really good. People have finally woken up to the fact that collectively THEY hold great Power. Don't pay!
Europe has stopped buying cheap oil & gas from Russia so the prices have gone up. In fact it is widely believed that the UK played a big part in the destruction of the Nordstream pipelines. The British people have been the strongest supporters of the US in this war against Russia so I say to the British people "if you want to see the guilty party, take a look in the mirror" The British people fully deserve everything they get. A good starting point for change would be to stop toadying to the US.
Thanks, that's true!❤
Are you suggesting that we should still buy things from the country which attack another one ?
London has great architecture but you couldn't see it from that opening drone shot
The pizza man is wonderful. So many people he helps. Bless. ❤❤❤❤

Stop wasting your tax payers money on your old king 👑.
You go Charlotte, I hope and pray you can make a difference no matter how big or small, it's still a victory. 👊🏽💥🙌🏽
The rich gets richer and the poor die of hunger... The only thing we can do is pray for their souls and hope they will realise that money isn't going to buy them iternity...
This is terrifying. Don't ask the govt to do IT'S JOB...ask your starving friends & family that can't support themselves to also support you....
Lived in england for 21 years from 1982 to 2002. mostly through the thacher years. I love uk and its constitution. but what is happening to uk will makes thacher turn on her grave. what a sad pitifull state of affairs. what have they done to this country. such a kind country and i have been to alot of them. all because some fools took over the country. god bless the eu.
Thatcher's vision was that everyone should own a house so that they could sell it when they needed health care. It's her myopic view of economics that started this, and subsequent governments have carried on the good work.
What constitution? They haven't got a written one and what isn't written down can be changed by the government/parliament of the day. The actually do that, haven't you noticed yer?
Love this idea of the Dr. It's a social but also exercise. Great Dr.!
This was the natural state for Anglo Saxons before the "discovery" of India. Anglo-Saxons, work your backs off because "revenues" wont arrive from "crown jewel".
What planet are you from?
@@trydowaveIndia, Africa, Australia and more
The English Colonies?
@@carinarilk89 I was merely alluding to the fact that your typical Englishman and their family got bugger all from the crown jewel (whatever that means) even at the peak of the empire. Even gandhi was appalled at the poverty he found in the east end. But please go on and perpetuate the lie that all anglo saxons some how benefited from colonialism. Personally I'd rather live the life of a Mexican farmer than your average englishman in a grimey industrialised victorian Britain or worse yet one of its workhouses. From a brit. Or is that, downtrodden victim of our once colonial Roman masters?
@sleepyjoe rightly said
@@skyabhinav1He is crazy! He must go home at once.
GOD BLESS YOU MARK !!🙏🙏
Very eye opening....we have homeless people but it's due to ignorance of political parties...it's absolutely beyond comprehension see doctors with cancer and other health problems, and 10 minutes only one issue...very troubling
