In British politics, the former British Foreign Minister, who has always been known for his tough "anti-China" and the current Prime Minister Trass, was boycotted less than a month after he came to power. According to data from foreign polling agencies, after three weeks of taking office, 51% of respondents believed that Tras should resign.
At the same time, Tras is also facing political pressure. According to the Russian News Agency, MPs of the British Parliament are ready to send a letter to the chairman of the Conservative Party Steering Committee, asking for a vote of distrust against the Conservative Party leader and British Prime Minister Tras.
Faced with these pressures, Tras, who has been stubborn and refuses to admit his mistakes, finally "can't stand it anymore." Attendance at a meeting within the Conservative Party within , Trass rarely admitted that "there are some mistakes in his own policy."
Frankly, as the prime minister of a country, he has not even been familiar with the work content in three weeks, so he was asked to resign by more than half of the respondents and was asked by lawmakers to initiate a distrust case. This is indeed rare.
The so-called "new official takes office for three fires". Previously, when the Conservative Party was running for prime minister within the Conservative Party, in order to win support, Tras boasted about Haikou, saying that he would carry out economic reforms in the shortest time after he took office.
Now, in order to fulfill this promise, the cabinet led by her hastily launched a large-scale tax cut, intended to boost the sluggish British economy, but it was met with opposition. Simply put, Tras' economic reform is to reduce the burden on enterprises and individuals through tax cuts and stimulate the British economy.
In fact, when the economy is down, it is not a rare policy for the government to choose to reduce taxes to stimulate the economy. Then the question is, since Trass' strategy is normal, why is it opposed at home and abroad?
In fact, this is related to the current economic downturn in the UK. Economic downturns are divided into many types. In the past many years, the economic downturns encountered in the entire capitalist world were mainly caused by overproductive forces.
But the theory of "overproductivity" is actually a relative concept in many cases. For example, cars have overcapacity in the world and cannot be sold. It does not mean that everyone has cars, but that people who can afford cars have cars, and those who cannot afford cars do not exist in the eyes of auto manufacturers.
The imbalance in economic development between countries and regions around the world has prompted that the consumer market has not been completely developed, rather than saying that the consumer market is as large as it is, it is impossible to increase again.
In other words, as long as the price of a product is reduced, most products with overcapacity will not be left. This is also the root cause of the weak economic growth in the West in recent years, but China has been developing rapidly.
Now, by reducing taxes on enterprises on a large scale, the British government has prompted the production costs of British enterprises to reduce, and their products have regained their advantages in terms of price. What could not be sold can be sold again. The product can be sold after it is produced and the economic problems will be gradually solved when this industrial chain is opened.
But at present, the reason why the British economy is problematic is not caused by overproductivity, it is not the common economic crisis in the past capitalist countries .
The Russian-Ukrainian conflict has caused energy prices to soar. In order to alleviate its own inflation, the Federal Reserve hikes rate hikes, prompting the depreciation of the pound. Coupled with the impact of the new crown epidemic on global supply chains, the economic problems encountered by the UK, including European countries, are caused by the high cost of production and living, and overdrawing residents' consumption power. In this state of
, it is difficult to achieve the expected results even by reducing taxes and expanding production, because ordinary people have no money and cannot sell them even if they produce things.
Moreover, the little taxes reduced by the government are simply drizzling compared to the soaring energy costs, and they cannot achieve the effect of reducing the production costs of British enterprises at all.In addition to disrupting the market, allowing other countries to learn and eventually evolve into global trade protectionism , there is almost no benefit.
plus Tras' policy, there is also the option of large-scale lowering of tax rates for the rich, which will naturally arouse opposition from home and abroad. Ordinary British people may not understand the complex economic problems, but they are now anxious to wait for government relief. As a result, in order to stimulate the economy, the government reduces taxes, so what money does the government use to help the people?
This also reflects the "righteous" nature of the UK as a veteran capitalist country. These British politicians do not care about the living conditions of the people at the bottom, but only care about whether the economy can operate normally and whether capital can make money.
Of course, objectively speaking, Tras also has his own difficulties. Most of the economic problems facing the UK is caused by the energy crisis caused by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. If Russia and Ukraine ceasefire, Russia's energy supply to Europe will recover, alleviate the UK's inflation and then implement this set of economic reforms, it may work.
But the problem is that if the United States wants to support Ukraine in fighting against Russia, the United Kingdom cannot change this matter and will not solve the most core inflation crisis. In this context, even if Tras goes down and replaces another prime minister, there is no good idea.
