📈🎉 Real wages are rising 📈🎉
Pay is growing faster than prices, and faster than last quarter.
When workers have more cash, they spend more.

AfD's support is highest in Germany's manufacturing heartlands. Same as Reform's support in the UK.
Deindustrialisation in 1980's -> fewer good jobs (for non-grads) -> rise of the Far/Radical Right today.
That's why we need to create good jobs for all.

Bond rates are rising worldwide as spiking fossil fuel prices -> higher inflation.
This is why we're fiscal credibility hawks. Our strategy has two pillars:
1) Getting inflation down directly (through energy bill cuts)
2) Fiscal rule commitment (a credible path for bond traders)

The reason fossil fuels are making us poorer might surprise you… (and this is how we're fixing it).

The more dependent we are on fossil fuels controlled by foreign dictators, the poorer we will be.
Wars abroad lead to higher bills at home. Which then leads to higher inflation and then interest rates.
And a burning planet ain't good for business either.

Gilts have risen today - along with bond rates *across advanced economies*.
This is primarily for two reasons:
1. Higher inflation expectations, because of higher gas prices from the war in Iran.
2. Rising U.S. Treasury yields, forcing up yields of other nations’ debt.
