UK here. We just switched to a Labour government a few months ago and it turns out that the previous Conservative government blew a £22 billion hole in the economy and didn’t tell anyone, so now the new government have to deal with it by raising taxes which is pissing everybody off.
In particular, they’re changing the way inheritance tax works which is screwing over farmers, so they’re now doing mass protests.
Agree, it’s a bit unfair that people are blaming Labour for trying to sort things out. The mini budget from the previous government a year before is estimated to have cost the UK £30bn alone in two weeks.
