What will 2023 bring?
A continuation of the #winterofdiscontent as Govt. continues to think playing hardball is a vote winner for its supporters;
real #wages continue to fall - PWC predict a fall to 2006 level(s);

#infrastructure declines further as absentee owners suck out money;
#ClimateCrisis worsens while Governments (again) kick policy changes down the road.

'It all seems very badly organised. I wish to make a complaint. I pay my taxes, after all.’
