2. All the unemployed to be given lower benefits, government to be severely curtailed, no govt employee to be on more than the PM, etc

I like the maths where paying someone 25K only actually “costs” 2K due to the recovered tax and benefits not paid out.
Doesn’t that prove that taxes and benefits are too high?

These new govt jobs for the unemployed should be very highly paid, so that more tax will be raised. If the pay was high enough, the tax raised would pay the defect off. simples.
That should work wonders for state sector productivity.
So he’s in favour of workfare? Shurely shome mishtake?

Why is this news?
The above plan is standard fare in socialist circles and Richie is a socialist.
