Already told you how to deal with the debt it's simple.

SevUK?

Also an option.

Genuine question though if every country is in similar situation. Then why not a global debt write off?

92% of all the covid related borrowing in the UK has come from the Bank of England.

Even never really understood this either. Who is the planet in debt to? Martians?

I suspect the answer to your question though is probably something about keeping wealthy cvnts wealthy.

Almost all gov debt is money "borrowed" against future economic performance. Basically "lend" themselves money from their future selves.

I've read The Invisibles. I know you're an Archon.

I'm just too lazy to do anything about it. Here, someone else form a resistance, will you?

And when future economic performance is looking bleak or uncertain, they just print more money 😂

Which normally would mean a devaluation of currency and the inevitable inflation that would arise from that.. but when all major economies are employing the same policy (as they have the past decade) then that no longer becomes much of an issue.

Safe to say the system is 100% rigged and no longer based on economic performance as it used to be pre 1980s

That makes about as much sense as "transferring" history from your previous selves.

Coupled with 50% of the workforce reaching retirement age in the next decade


What's the source of this number?

I was under the impression that 22% are over 55.

Can't find the source I had last night but it came from the Royal College of Nursing review.

I believe this news story references the same report/review.

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/nhs-faces-nurse-shortage-as-half-near-retirement-j6q5rs7nz

Seems it's a few years old now, so googled RCN to find the review I saw last night, and there's a more recent one that says it's now 30% with it now being compounded by EU staff almost entirely no longer joining the NHS (96% drop in new recruits).

Aye the latest review has it as 1 in 3 due to retire in the next few years (last review I can see was 2018).
