Real Northumberland Murky: Northumberland’s ‘Movement’s’ bragging rights on Council Tax help doesn’t cut it with Christians, Conservatives or Age UK?

Being an element of the ‘Look at me I’m a Tory’ from Northumberland’s anti ‘Woke’ ‘Movement’ members and ‘we offer the best help with Council tax relief in the whole of the North-east’ has been pushed out under the threshold of County Hall in Morpeth the town central to their golden spend zone of Castle Morpeth.

It could have been an admirable statement to release but with those same Tories not bothering to look at those who need help yet may not qualify for the relief on offer as they are suffering in different ways from ‘National Tory Movement’ failures by Government and those failures are hated by all Conservatives who consider themselves moderate thinkers, Christian Societies, and the well thought of Age UK.

Sitting outside of Castle Morpeth Tory ‘Movement’s’ help or interest, half of elderly people are worried about paying their winter energy bills. Charity Age UK has warned that more than half (54%) of over-60s, that's around 8.9m people are worried that they will not be able to afford their energy bills this winter, with 44% having already cut back on social and leisure activities as the cost of essentials rise.

Around 2.6m older people have cut back on their telephone, internet, and water usage. Charity director Caroline Abrahams said there is "rising concern about how some older people will cope when the temperature dips and they need to turn up the heat", and that is on top of "two tough years of this vicious cost of living crisis”. “some older people say they are unsure how they'll get through a third, having run down their savings and made all the economies they can".

The embarrassment of being seen as poor sitting behind decades of managing to pay their way in society stops people accessing help offered by the multi nationals such as Asda, who are set on helping those who ask with very cheap hot food available for one pound but attending warm places such as supermarket cafe’s will be anathema to many.

The long term swing to the right and the UKIPisation via members of the Movement of the Conservative Party in all areas is seen openly as they attack the poor and defenseless in any way they can and have done over the last 13 years, Cameron began the rot as he supported Farage in their quest to remove the European Human Rights Act protection from UK statute, Theresa May was no better in that respect and her Brexit agreement basics failure allowed the nation to support Johnson, a now proven liar and supporter on ‘One Nation’ policy yes a right wing nationalist set of plans and bring him into the Jimmy Saville poisoned world of ‘I’ll fix it for you’. He has been followed by two who can’t shake off ultra right thinking and have destroyed the UK economy, Truss by introducing policy that was hated by the City of London traders leaving the UK to rot economically and brought in ultra rich and ultra right Sunak who couldn’t win the support of Conservative Party members in a vote for premiership.

Sunak’s support for Bravermans attacks on the poor and those in need is why and where the Conservative’s stepped off the bus. They were quickly joined by Christians and Age UK with food bank growth out of control and children suffering greatly through ultra right policy such as stagnated housing benefit, cutting back child benefit for larger families, the bedroom tax and inflation being out of control now damaging those who believed they could afford this and that, are being controlled by the ‘Movement’ through its economic shackles such as inflation and interest rates.

Recent research conducted by charity Christians Against Poverty, meanwhile, has found that almost half of its clients will fall short of covering essential costs by an average of £85 a week. Bishops and Cardinals have spoken out against the ‘bashing of the weakest’.

Following analysis by the New Economics Foundation which has found that even if Universal Credit is updated in line with CPI inflation from April, claimants may be up to £670 worse off over the year if cost of living payments are withdrawn as is currently planned. The think tank found that if the payments are ceased, 40% of all families will fall short of the "minimum income standard", a benchmark that takes housing and childcare costs into account.

So we will remind our reader of what Sunak promised last year, He said “I’d like to tell you my five immediate priorities.

These are the five foundations I know can build a better, more secure, more prosperous future that this country deserves.

We will halve inflation this year to ease the cost of living and give people financial security.
We will grow the economy, creating better-paid jobs and opportunities right across the country.
We will make sure our national debt is falling so that we can secure the future of public services.
NHS waiting lists will fall and people will get the care they need more quickly.
We will pass new laws to stop small boats, making sure that if you come to this country illegally, you are detained and swiftly removed.

These are my five pledges to deliver peace of mind, so that you know things are getting better, that they are actually changing”.

To use the words of Alan Sugar “What a Load of Bollocks”

With growth flatlining, debt failing to fall, inflation digging in for the long haul, boats not stopping, waiting lists rising and crime and housing not even making Sunak’s top five priorities Alan Sugar’s correct and the Tory ‘Movement’ everywhere needs to get themselves a small boat and drift off into the sunset, after all they already have all of our cash.
