Cost of living!! Why don’t the right wing actually tackle this

Cost of living increases because of

1 Foreign wars. They stiffle supply chains lessons to inflation

Money printing (to fund wars and bail out economies that have collapsed)

The question is why aren’t our media eve talking about this. Where are the usual suspects who will talk about refugees and small boats (which are caused foreign wars - a lot for Israel) but they’ll never talk about stopping support for foreign wars especially Israel’s wars.

And nobody talks about money printing

Expats, how difficult was it for you to update your banking (for those who sold their house and not have no address in the U.K.)

Was the process easy?

Also for those with stocks and shares (ISAs and GI investment accounts) was it a problem you moved away from the U.K.

I’m a Brit thinking of semi retiring abroad. Just see a lot of hurdles and red tape.

Saw this comment saying Brits/Europeans and Americans get preference in the UAE. I get that the UAE wouldn’t have been formed if it wasn’t for Britain/America and Arabs have an inferiority complex because they’re colonised by Americans BUT what is the order of the totem pole in Dubai?

Are Emiratis on top or are Americans/Brits/Europeans?

Are Americans seen as higher than Brits and Brits as higher than Europeans (Germans/French)

What about other Arabs? Is there a hierarchy between them in Dubai

Where do South Americans fit in?

Who is at the bottom?

What about Black Brits and Black Americans (or other ethnic Brits/Anericans) like Pakistani/Indian Brits and Americans. Is it about nationality or race. I mean would a Pakistani/Black Brit be seen as the same as a White Brit?

What about Eastern Europeans?

If labourers from countries in South Asia are given the least rights then is this related to their socio economic status or ethnicity?

Also surely if this is a problem and the UAE is discriminatory based on ethnicity and nationality then surely talking about it will help raise awareness and awareness educate Emiratis.

I do feel the UAE and countries in Asia/Africa have a lot to learn from Britain regarding racial equality.

As a point of note I would hazard to say the people who are affected most adversely by this ethnic/nationality/racial totem pole in Dubai are those from countries which have the biggest inequality and discrimination problems.

A lot of improvement is needed all round. Education is key.
