uk has a deficit too? So do most countries? Just we uniquely have this weird situ where we are limited by how to deal

can u explain the deficit to me? How did we come about having one without the equivalent borrowing powers? Bank bail out? :(

so ur still a fan of raising top rate tax? I'm not against that in principle but as long as doesn't impact low earners down the line
