The catastrophe facing the UK for bombing Yemen

The stupidity of Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer as usual supporting him in attacking Yemen will have an economic impact on us. Right, so having attacked Yemen for daring to hold Israel accountable by way of blockading their shipping, the UK now faces having its own shipping blockaded if it tries to pass through the Red Sea, the limited impact of the Houthis, little more than hardening their resolve in effect to stand by Palestine as pretty much all other nations on Earth turn a blind eye, with honourable exceptions such as the South Africa legal case, notwithstanding. But this stupid act, this delusion of Imperial grandeur will come at a price for us. When people in the UK have endured years of austerity, have seen the Tories economic idiocy put ahead of what needed to be done during the pandemic, the fallout from that still be analysed, but also definitely led to soaring inflation and greedflation costing us all, all the more, we’re now witnessing the spectacle of both the Tories and Labour having spend millions on attacking Yemen, instead of helping the people of this country and in the process have done something likely to lead to price rises once again. Right, so if there’s one thing all of us across whatever political divide you care to draw lines over can agree on right now, is that we’re all sick of how expensive it is to get by right now. We’ve had austerity thanks to the same unelected foreign secretary we’ve got now, from when he was Prime Minister, we’ve had Brexit cause economic chaos as well, as all of a sudden tariffs need to be paid, red tape is tying everything up and we all pay extra for that, the knock on effects of the pandemic and the stupidity of the government placing the economy before people’s lives, costing people their lives as they broke the rules themselves, but having tried to open the country up before suppliers were prepared for it, consumption outstripped supply and prices were driven through the roof. People had to pay it, there was a loathing on the part of suppliers across all manner of markets from food to energy to bring those prices down and the government again failed to help ordinary people. Such has been the depressing spectacle of the last more than a decade of life in the UK. So I’m sure we were all cheering Rishi Sunak handing a £ package of our money to Volodymyr Zelensky in Ukraine last week weren’t we! Not. Just like performative nonsense such as that, that we all end up having to pay for, such is the case for having spent billions more on a vanity show of military action against Yemen, taking off from an island who’s people no longer want us there in Cyprus, and achieving nothing except to pi** off the Houthis directly with us and mean they’ll now seek to block our shipping through the Red Sea too. Now some commentators argue that the Houthis have been indiscriminate in what shipping they’ve stopped, that’s the language of Western media I fancy, I’ve not seen definitive proof of that, though have seen reports of shipping passing through untouched by them, so I’m unwilling to buy into that, but the question now needs asking, how badly is our trade now screwed up? ***Subscribe to the channel here*** ►ABOUT ME: Hi, I’m Damien Willey.
