IN relatively parsimonious Bromley and Biggin Hill, total bill £157m, £1,584 per head!!But note a narrow Conservative majority of 302, and 4,003 PIP claimants! CUt PIP??
I looked up 2 boroughs in London and the numbers are absolutely terrifyingIn Ealing, which I would not associate with vast numbers claiming benefits, it is > £1.1bn. Flippin' heck! Maybe most of the claimants live near LHR, like Southall and Hanwell?Where I live, in Camden, it is paying out ‘only’ £657m!This is nuts!
Ouch! The best case scenario is that the enforcement can continue but only if QBT file an entirely new or fundamentally altered claim; all of which would extend the process by many months.
Q : If you can print fiat why do you as a Government need to borrow?A. To kick the can twice as far, twice as quickly. If it is going to be your problem in two years, such tactics can make it someone else's in four.
That is absolutely toe curling. A former chair of the United States Council of Economic Advisers no less!Surely this madness cannot go on for much longer.
