Related: About this forumUK in Deep Trouble - Nottingham Declares Bankruptcy, 30% of Councils at Risk as Housing Crisis Grows - Joe Blogs
The United Kingdom is in the grips of a Crisis as GDP falls and prices rise. The combination of Brexit and Rising Market Prices has caused Inflation to Soar and resulted in 14 consecutive Interest Rate Rises. This is now causing major problems in the economy and NOTTINGHAM Council has now declared itself BANKRUPT. This is the second Council to do this in the past couple of months and 30% of all Councils are facing BANKRUPTCY due to the HOUSING CRISIS which has left over 100,000 families HOMELESS. In this video I look at the current situation and what is likely to happen over the next 3 to 6 months.

But the prices were way too expensive. We chose a Greek islands cruise instead.

They try to run the country on the cheap so they can figure ways to shove tax money toward the rich, instead.
