Strikes are popular. Every time there isn't a strike happening someone should be saying "I miss strikes, do you know when the next strike is?"
Oh my god he admit it

In this ep we make the point that you can never have a budget as harsh as 1995 again unless you rebuild the welfare state first, which we haven't done.

But I think I'm going to be mumbling the phrase "Minister Champagne is repealing the yacht tax" to myself for a while. 🍾
