UK Economy in a Downward Spiral of Doom

SOME VOTED FOR DEATH OF A NATION: UK’s poorest have become poorer under Starmer – Telegraph.

The far-left Labour Westminster regime’s economic policies have reduced the disposable income of the most vulnerable Britons. This situation has not been healthy for decades.

The poorest UK households have only become poorer under Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s Labour regime.

This occurred despite its empty promises to boost living standards. Several British outlets reported on Friday, citing recently published analytical data.

Disposable income left after bills and essentials for the least wealthy households in the UK fell 2.1% during the period between July 2024 (when Labour took office) and October 2025.

Conversely, the discretionary spending among the UK’s richest households has increased 10.3% during the same period.

Lower income families are still grappling with the legacy of surging prices. Their finances are playing catch up. The cost of everyday products is significantly higher than it was four years ago.

A whole generation of younger, lower to middle-income households is feeling poorer than they were five years ago. They are being forced to prioritize essentials. They must cut back on discretionary spending, he reportedly said.

According to the UK’s Office for Budget Responsibility, real household disposable income is expected to grow minimally by 0.6% in 2026. This is due to gradually slowing real wage growth and rising taxes.

The migrant-loving globalist regime announced £26 billion ($35 billion) in tax hikes in its November budget. This move breaches prior promises.

Simultaneously, Chancellor Rachel Reeves reaffirmed plans to ramp up military spending by 2.6% of GDP, despite recognizing that her budget would squeeze ordinary people.

Starmer’s handling of the economy has led to a plummet in his approval ratings. His crackdown on free speech in the UK amid the country’s migration crisis has also contributed to this decline.

Only 15% of Britons think that he is doing well as prime minister, according to this week’s YouGov poll data.
