Just stop Nat Zero , that will save a fortune! All that spending pushing Net Zero is stupidity when you have no money and Net Zero is a lie so why even do it? Oh yeah , people making money!
He doesn't give a toss what the public think, he's got a big pension for life. He's actually laughing his way through the interview, doesn't care about the people he's enriched himself on.
Instead they have ditched the dueling of the A1 in Northumberland and wasted sixty nine million pounds already spent on planning and compulsory purchase.
Our economy was stable for years until labour took power. The economy started tanking when labour took over. Therefore our economic issues must be a direct result of labour’s policies!
With respect Julia you're asking a former labour minister (Blair government) " how to grow the economy"??..!! High finance is alien to socialists , economic success is an unknown area for socialism, they only know tax and waste.
They don't care as long as they get rich with there friends they don't care about the tax payers it doesn't affect there lives there rich that's the government for you
American here. I truly feel apprehensive for my British cousins regarding the economy. We have issues here as well. But not as bleak. Remember, if the situation there really goes tits up. You’re all welcome here. Hugs 🇺🇸♥️🇬🇧
Why is the Government Spending Trillions on Overseas development mainly to Countries that follow an Alice Lamb ideology, when that money could be spent on the haemorrhaging UK Debt black hole.
A labour peer who only ever worked in the public sector. And just his attendance allowance per day is £350 as a peer. Plus expenses. And you don't even need to go in!
The cost of "energy" is so high because the government has imposed such high taxation on ALL energy to support the political class and its incompetence. Look how much tax and vat is on road fuels, which puts additional cost on supply chain of EVERYTHING. Our politicians are so dumb.
Charlie Faulkener told a whole series of lies in this interview: Growth will come with cheap energy and less red-tape. He said the opposite is true. And productivity is dire because we've imported millions of cheap labour, rather than getting companies to invest in technology to improve the productivity of its existing employees.
Spending cuts are the ONLY ANSWER. Especially public sector wages/bonuses and substantial undeserved BENEFITS. AND old age pensioners do not get benefits - an OAP pension is an entitlement as per DWP.
Does this Lord claim energy allowance on his expenses? If the rest of us could walk into the Palace of Westminster and claim our allowance tax free plus food allowance maybe we could pay these high energy bills
Cheap energy means a booming or growing economy. It's goes hand in hand. We need to scrap net zero. Get drilling for gas, build mini nuclear reactors en masse. Adapt to climate change with bigger flood defences, bigger drains and natural runs offs to prevent flooding, desalination plants for dry periods etc etc and stop all this nonesense now. Any Labour mp who doesn't understand this should resign from parliament, as you're not fit to be an mp. Roll on Reformuk in power.
The people of the UK are still waiting on the jam that Cameron/Osbourne promised nearly two decades ago but have and still are taking plenty of pain,just saying.
The Labour Peer is absolutely clueless! In 2010, Labour left a deficit that was an eyewatering 11% of GDP!! Even during the Pandemic, it only reached 15%. By the time Labour to office again, last year, the deficit was back at 4% of GDP. Simply dropping Bank of England interest rates to the correct level of 2.5% would have injected a £41Billion annual stimulus to the economy - and still would!!
Why cant labour understand that its not the government's job to direct growth but to enable it with low taxes, no wasteful overseas spending and cheap energy. The economy is based on energy that net zero theory destroys.
Will we need wheelbarrows for money soon? (Hyperinflation in Germany 1923). Falconer is a fool , he seems to not understand finances at all! Argentina is doing a sterling job! Lots of renewables from first generation will be going offline soon and they have not made anything cheaper at all , in fact they were hugely expensive... (Not to mention the ones that have already finished).
Cut ALL Net Zero taxes and costs. Cut ALL foreign aid. Cut ALL costs for migrants.
To much common sense.
1% global emissions and still we pay the most in energy prices. The countries who produce the most should pay the most or cancel the green scam
Just stop Nat Zero , that will save a fortune! All that spending pushing Net Zero is stupidity when you have no money and Net Zero is a lie so why even do it? Oh yeah , people making money!
that's what Donald is doing in US!
And proxyy war?
This Labour person has no idea of what the real public think.
He doesn’t have to he is on the lords gravy train
@ yes I think you’re right but ultimately we are the one’s who pay for their fxxk up
Just like everyone else in Labour then?
He doesn't give a toss what the public think, he's got a big pension for life. He's actually laughing his way through the interview, doesn't care about the people he's enriched himself on.
It's Tony Blair's flatmate who he put in the House of Lords as soon as he got in power.
Get rid of Labour for starters.
Bloody hell. It's so much worse than I thought. The arrogance is extraordinary, totally deluded
Labour are living in different world! stupid!
Well tried Julia but the ideology cannot be questioned, he's done very well out of delusion
Just ditch the net zero ideology. That would save us loads of money.
Billions
Billions
Instead they have ditched the dueling of the A1 in Northumberland and wasted sixty nine million pounds already spent on planning and compulsory purchase.
Foreign aid needs to cut, charity starts at home
You couldn’t make it up could you, they are totally delusional 🤬
High taxes.
High energy prices.
Demonising freedoms.
Is not going to make the economy grow! 🤦♂️
This guy is part of the problem
Always has been.
Useless.
Charlie Falconer, alone, justifies the policy to end the House of Lords.
Tony Blair's flatmate who he put in as soon as he got in power. And people go on about the Tories.
There speaks a very rich man. No worries for him about his energy bills.
What Labour thinks is way off real life...delusional 🤔🤔🤔
Westminister bubble
Just listen to this over-privileged prat. No wonder the country is in such a mess. 😮
Hasn’t got the faintest clue.
Was TB’s mate - so got where he got.
Charlie Falconer has never been the brightest politician. In fact he was a bit of a disaster in the Blair government.
Did they not slip his son into a safe Labour seat. He is now an MP and in the cabinet.
correct
Absolutely correct.
Our economy was stable for years until labour took power.
The economy started tanking when labour took over.
Therefore our economic issues must be a direct result of labour’s policies!
it happens every time there is a Labour government.
Liebour couldn't run a lemonade stand. This dystopian, Liebour clownshow has been a disaster for this country.
Have you got some sort of memory loss ??
You know they will blame the Black hole or Brexit,but not admit they’re useless.
@@garyh1572 i used to be very forgetful, but now i`m not so sure!
The House of Lords should be shut down, saving the taxpayer hundreds of thousands pounds each year, for doing absolutely nothing, and falling asleep.
They should also stop subsidising the food for anyone working in Westminster
He’s right we need REFORM , VOTE REFORM UK
Labour is more tone deaf to Common sense than it is to LISTENING to working people
smug ....not concerned......selling the lie.......the hole is dug
Faulkner defending the indefensible. 😂😂
With respect Julia you're asking a former labour minister (Blair government) " how to grow the economy"??..!! High finance is alien to socialists , economic success is an unknown area for socialism, they only know tax and waste.
Cut the foreign aid money as a start. Stop immigration would save millions in hotel and accommodation costs.
Billions it would save
Like giving free money to people on boats and over countrys
Like the Tories did?
Like the Tories giving free money to their mates !!!
They don't care as long as they get rich with there friends they don't care about the tax payers it doesn't affect there lives there rich that's the government for you
LABOUR ARE AUSTERITY 2.0!!!!!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
With less consideration for the vulnerable than even the despicable conservatives
More lies.
Lord Falconer ... my goodness go away !!
He gave continual half baked answers. If only we could hear the conversations he has with the Blairs, in one of their many houses.
13 billion annually on international aid. 8 billion on migrant hotels. Just saying.
22 billion on carbon capture - WHAAAAT ! 3 BILLION A YEAR TO ST. ZELENSKI ( BACK HOLE SORTED )
Tosh,tosh and more tosh..
Spend spend spend and the rest will follow..😂😂
I suggest your guest has his brain checked there's something amiss
Get his harddrives checked as well while you're at it
He don't appear to have a brain
Liebore lies,,
He clearly has no clue. Or he does not come into contact with the real world.
He reeks of smugness cant listen to him
Who is he!! except he is a useless Labour Peer, what the hell has he done for this Country.
This tool is so blatantly a loser, I mean socialist. He just does not have a clue about the real world!!!
Capitalism hasn't worked though !!!!
Another Lord telling us what is good for them , not what the public want. They have had so good they will never change the status quo.....
You can hear he is lying when talking bout net zero, coward.
Economics for 5 year olds = the labour govt
As old as 5 😂
1. Reduce taxation.
2. Increase productivity by investing in education and training.
3. Reduce government spending.
4. Reduce regulation and bureaucratic rules.
5. Internationally, encourage free trade.
They will build the houses that no one will be able to get a mortgage for 🤔🤔🤔. Or will that he more on benefits 🤔
Falconer was Blair's man. Say no more.
Push climatehoax 2030 back to 2100 at least.
Usual liebour sticky to the script
Julia, please don't forget the farmers and the survival of our small family farms.
American here. I truly feel apprehensive for my British cousins regarding the economy. We have issues here as well. But not as bleak. Remember, if the situation there really goes tits up. You’re all welcome here. Hugs 🇺🇸♥️🇬🇧
Why is the Government Spending Trillions on Overseas development mainly to Countries that follow an Alice Lamb ideology, when that money could be spent on the haemorrhaging UK Debt black hole.
Painful..
Us bias, you'll never get them to admit to anything.
Starmer and his crew are dragging us into a muslim slum.
WHEN will the renewables give us cheap electricity???
Never, of course.
These idiots have no idea what the public think they should just go while theres anything left of this country 😡😡
That person doesn’t have a clue just another Cruel Labour person
How many shares does he have in the green bs 😮
Commie mantra don't believe your eyes
Lord Faulkner in cloud cuckoo land like the rest of them.
A labour peer who only ever worked in the public sector. And just his attendance allowance per day is £350 as a peer. Plus expenses. And you don't even need to go in!
There would be an instant improvement if this Whole Government resigned and called a GE
It’s clear Labour members are on a different planet. Imagine the mess of the UK after 4 more years. 🙈
What a mess if this guy is a lord. So sad to see.the slow demise of the uk.
Generally, once prices have gone up, they tend to stay up and rarely come back down
The cost of "energy" is so high because the government has imposed such high taxation on ALL energy to support the political class and its incompetence.
Look how much tax and vat is on road fuels, which puts additional cost on supply chain of EVERYTHING. Our politicians are so dumb.
This man isn't in the real world ..
all lies from him he is not living in the real world about this country and he needs to go
That say a country gets the government they deserve.
Have we really sunk this low?
1% global emissions and still we pay the most in energy prices. The countries who produce the most should pay the most or cancel the green scam
Hypocrisy plain and simple
‘Power to the People!’ Wolfie Smith, Tooting 😂
Charlie Faulkener told a whole series of lies in this interview: Growth will come with cheap energy and less red-tape. He said the opposite is true. And productivity is dire because we've imported millions of cheap labour, rather than getting companies to invest in technology to improve the productivity of its existing employees.
What a smug little man.
Put someone in a red tie and they start talking bullocks 😂
Spending cuts are the ONLY ANSWER. Especially public sector wages/bonuses and substantial undeserved BENEFITS. AND old age pensioners do not get benefits - an OAP pension is an entitlement as per DWP.
does that man have any idea what@s going on. god help us all in the uk
Everything is fine... reminds me of that infamous meme
The sensible usual way is give people a reason to spend and encourage businesses by lowering taxes .
Does this Lord claim energy allowance on his expenses? If the rest of us could walk into the Palace of Westminster and claim our allowance tax free plus food allowance maybe we could pay these high energy bills
enjoy your time...labour are a single term disater government
We appear to have enough money to keep paying for illegal immigrant hotels etc 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Another labourite.
Labour’s constant course has crippled the country in 6 months.
Cheap energy means a booming or growing economy. It's goes hand in hand. We need to scrap net zero. Get drilling for gas, build mini nuclear reactors en masse. Adapt to climate change with bigger flood defences, bigger drains and natural runs offs to prevent flooding, desalination plants for dry periods etc etc and stop all this nonesense now. Any Labour mp who doesn't understand this should resign from parliament, as you're not fit to be an mp. Roll on Reformuk in power.
Scrap Nut Zero! problem solved.
How do you grow the economy if we don't have money in our pockets.
For the rest of my life,I will never ever vote labour government .
Rachel from accounts couldn’t plan her way out of a paper bag. She’s out of her depth and simply winging it.
Is he right in the head
Government is too big, they need to massively cut spending, regulations AND taxes to start serious growth. Aka not happening under Labour/Tories.
Corruption in Liebour is endemic
The people of the UK are still waiting on the jam that Cameron/Osbourne promised nearly two decades ago but have and still are taking plenty of pain,just saying.
The Labour Peer is absolutely clueless!
In 2010, Labour left a deficit that was an eyewatering 11% of GDP!!

Simply dropping Bank of England interest rates to the correct level of 2.5% would have injected a £41Billion annual stimulus to the economy - and still would!!
Labour: "We won't break the rules.....we'll just change them to suit us."
Why cant labour understand that its not the government's job to direct growth but to enable it with low taxes, no wasteful overseas spending and cheap energy. The economy is based on energy that net zero theory destroys.
Les incompetent Labour
Was this man ever voted into anything?
He's talking rubbish and building house's for migrants going to help 🤔
Stop bringing these Labour liars on.
This bloke talks a load of bollocks
blair's bezzy ( mentor ) - we all thought the tories despised the working class - turns out it's really Labour
This man doesn’t read very much. 🇬🇧
can't be doing with apologists who are blind to the truth out of loyalty!
Will we need wheelbarrows for money soon? (Hyperinflation in Germany 1923).
Falconer is a fool , he seems to not understand finances at all! Argentina is doing a sterling job!
Lots of renewables from first generation will be going offline soon and they have not made anything cheaper at all , in fact they were hugely expensive... (Not to mention the ones that have already finished).
He's talking out of his behind , I'm being polite here
