My mate suggested yesterday that if the Gov had given everyone over 18 £1m, they would have only spent £60billion instead of the est £500bn they have upto now! - they could have killed many birds with one stone like stop the welfare sys, therefore virtually ending commercial immigration, saving £bn's, there would be no poverty related problems etc and the economy would have bounced with the new found wealth. The Gov would probably recouped it all in the first 12 months after lockdown! ;-)
Made me chuckle, and i can see the positives! - if he were in politics I'd be tempted to vote for him! ;-)
