I posted a link earlier, and am surprised no one has commented, to an interview last month, after the Paris atrocities, where Hilary Benn all but rules out air strikes on Syria... I don't get why more isn't made of this or at least an answer found as to why he changed his mind?
I think the key change for Benn will have been the UN resolution.
My boss has just reduced my £14,000 BY £4,000 TO £10,000..but that's ok...because he explained to me that there had been a shortfall in company income and as a percentage of monies available for salaries it was in fact a rise..geddit..I might have a little bit of bother at the bank.. and with the mortgage ..but they will understand.. they know all about percentages..
On the other hand, if the price level had dropped by 33% his 'real' income would have increased!
Indeed - so you're happy for all benefits and wages to be cut by around 1% immediately as prices are falling?
That is a separate issue - though if the price level did fall by a third all Benefits - including Retirement Pensions - would have to be cut! It would be a deflationary environment of which we have no experience but if it came to pass all Government spending would have to fall in nominal terms.
'In a centuries time people will be massovely more prosperous than today and fretting about the impact of the "truly remarkable" technology yet to come ...''
Some feminists are so worried about the impact of sex robots they are urging for them to be banned.

What will help UKIP all the way to 2020 is unlimited EU immigration. Cameron has nothing to offer here but empty words and Labour favours mass immigration i.e. all other parties are out of touch with what an important number of voters want. Therefore it would hardly be surprising for UKIP to increase its votes between now and 2020 though the FPTP system may mean even with double the votes it may get few seats
