I can remember when we were encouraged to save for retirement and a rainy day.
Planning for the long term - reducing dependency on state benefits.
Now its crisis management - all short termism.
In its desperation to revive the economy before the next election
Cut interest rates to nothing and even tax incentives to cash your pension in early.
Like yesterday in Parliament, fighting to avert the crisis getting even worse tomorrow
No planning or encouragement to save for the long term
Yes there is money sitting in bank accounts
Much of it taken from the taxpayer in furlough fraud, eat out fraud, PPE fraud etc
Most of it held by wealthy people who won't spend it in the uk.
The poor tend to spend it straightaway and locally, boosting the economy
Wheras the wealthy tend to spend it on cruises, villas in Tuscany, second homes, foreign holidays etc that is actually negative for the UK economy because its all changing pounds into foreign currency.

Oh and you won't be seeing any of it.
£215 billion is about what BoJo will need for his next election bribe to us, plus Northern Ireland and Wales.
So he can maintain his empire at you loser's expense.

I reckon I know what annoys you Jocks the most ..........
It's not the fact that you have to sponge off someone to keep your basketcase economy afloat .......
It's that you have to sponge off the English ..........
Which is why you'd sacrifice your fishing industry if it mean't you could sponge off the Germans .......

I don't want your money
I would far rather you keep your money and your BoJo.
But when he keeps showering us with your money the crackheads will vote for him
So BoJo maintains his empire at your expense.
But at least I am getting some compensation from you losers for having BoJo partially in charge.
You LOSER have BoJo fully in charge and have to pay me for it
I'll try and explain in your language LOSER

Link says a private equity company are considering trying to sell some of their overpriced shoe business in London
(Private Equity companies are notorious for buying companies, loading them up with debt, and flogging them on at an inflated price to collapse later under the pile of debt like Patissserie Valerie etc)
Where is the 'investment'
The Brexit trade deal and an early rollout of Covid-19 vaccines have boosted sentiment towards UK investments, said Susannah Streeter, senior investment and market analyst at Hargreaves Lansdown

Hargreaves Lansdown were still plugging Woodford funds just before they collapsed.
Their fees are legendary, and they make them from punters buying and selling - doesn't matter what
In any case, Dr Martens considering an IPO doesn't mean they are investing here - it means they are looking for punters to sell shares to.
As with Patisserie Valerie etc, punters tend to see only a chain of attractive shops selling attractive overpriced stuff and assume its profitable - without seeing how much of it is leased and rented and how much debt is hidden in the accounts
