Sadly with each passing day we can see the impact this awful policy has had on the UK. Tied up in red tape and tariffs with lower GDP than before the pandemic whilst the others in the G7, including Italy, are above. The lower GDP means we do not have the headroom to pay our way in the world and must resort to borrowing.Whilst there are rich people in the UK; a great many of us are poor and now we are poorer still. What steps can we take to generate more income during quantitative adjustment?
It is critical for everyone to prioritise investing in a variety of income streams that are independent of the government in light of the ongoing global economic crisis. Investigating stock, gold, silver, and digital currency opportunities is part of this. Despite the difficult economic climate, now is still a good time to think about making these investments.
I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.
I appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to unmeasurable progress. Being heavily liquid, I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, thus the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?
Finding financial advisors like Natalie Noel Burns who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.

Engineers are considered the lowest of the low in the UK, we've completely de-skilled the country, I get contacted by UK agencies for janitor jobs with unblocking toilet skills all the time now. It's crazy really, I've worked so hard, specialised in mechanical engineering, a MechEng degree, worked in robotics/mechatronics design, then went back to University and studied astronautics and space engineering, I now lead the design of robotic spacecraft, ESA, UK space projects etc, however money has always been incredibly tight, very few holidays, old cars, lots of DIY, the only reason I could afford a house is both my parents died early of cancer and I inherited enough money for a deposit. God knows if I will ever get enough money to retire. The big problem is about to come, we have no engineers or scientists,I will go to the US, being offered 4x salaries to what I am on now. The UK is a country of bankers, sales & marketing, middle managers and HR, falling behind in science, technology and high tech manufacturing, surviving only on a credit driven service industry, supported by years of quantitative easing with an unsustainable trade deficit. The UK has been following an identical economic path to Argentina for decades, the outcome is now inevitable, BoE and government can't do anything.
Wow, well said! That has been always my impression of the UK since Thacher broke the unions and outscored manufacturing to China and elsewhere. Basically the very same has happened in the US and now the Trump party claims they are the party of workers. How gullible can workers be? I find it kind of ironic to see a young doctor of Indian decent to find himself in a picket line for better pay in the UK. Btw, maybe Brits should put more fiber into their diet, install better plumbing or watch youtube how tos. Just saying.
Completely agree with this, Eng salaries here are an absolute joke. Germany, USA or Australia pay far more. You can earn the salary of an Eng for doing something far less academically demanding, it’s frustrating.
In the UK you can only make money if you're leeching off someone else and performing some middle man function. In the US at least engineers are well-compensated.
Exactly. The Germans have been trying hard to laugh at England for years. I sat through a big extravaganza on Bavarian TV in 2010. They mocked us for losing America in 1783, and what they called "British Left". Total Saturday night auditorium, talk to the audience then the patriots come marching in.. .. .. .. .. No one appeared to think all that might be in the least inapposite with respect to the EU... mmm. Absolutely idiotic!
Things have been pretty dire economically here in Britain for the last 15 years, real terms wages are still lower than they were before the global financial crash in 2008. Unsurprisingly, Brexit hasn't been the answer to all our problems!
Some pretty interesting economic numbers in the UK. It's interesting to hear of so many who voted for Brexit, because they thought it would lead to much less immigration. Instead, many have experienced great difficulty, and immigration is now highest in history.
The financialization of the economy produces intense and rapid accumulation of wealth in the hands of a few. But the price of this is the reduction in economic activity, the collapse of the population's consumption power and the unsustainable imbalance in prices, causing both popular reaction and uncertainty that slows down investment. At the base of the problem is neoliberalism and its predominance demanded by the ultra-rich and influential financial elite.
@mikes4142creating more predictible stable environment for businesses, maybe introducing more socialistic policies, more protectionist policies, returning from globalism back to localism. In case of UK investing more into innovation..?
In these uncertain times, it's more important than ever to have a solid understanding of how to manage your finances, invest wisely and navigate economic downturns. But my primary concern is how to grow my reserve of $240k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains, sure I'm all in on the long term game, but with my savings are lying waste to inflation and my portfolio losing gains everyday, I need a remedy.
you are completely right, Advisors have information and paths that are not disclosed to the public.. I profited £560k in 2022 under the tutelage of my Fiduciary-counselor. Am I selling? Absolutely not.. I am going to sit back and observe how this all plays out.

Capital is taxed too little, work (employment income) taxed too much. Companies have way too many advantages relative to their regular employees, this brings even more money in the hands of the capital holders. If you do the same work as an employee or a freelancer, you'll just make so much more money being freelance. Discovered recently that being an employee just simply makes no economic sense. You can't pass inflation to your employer, there is nothing you can deduct from taxes, hourly rate much lower than freelance.
@xkolm49 When you talk about “freelancing”, you should try actually talking with some self-employed and small businesses in the UK. It is terrible (hence why so MANY small businesses have gone under in last 2-3 years), and the idea that you pay less tax overall is laughable. Sole traders/self-employed are too small to benefit from any tax perks, don’t get all of the various company benefits, and the overall tax burden can be just awful. I think you really have in mind various “consultants” and “independent executives” that are associated with offshore/shell companies and financial machinations; totally different thing. Talk to small business/sole-traders across economy today and see how many are really doing well in the current climate. And finally things like mortgages etc are massively hard to get if you’re self-employed, even if you have an established business. Self-employed are still treated very much as second-class citizens in the UK economy.
But taxing the rich doesn’t help the common person. It sounds great but in reality nothing really happens. Govt just gets richer and spends money on things that are irrelevant to the poor.
What drives employee productivity? Capital investment. Taxing capital more is just a short-term play. Spend the money now and pay the debt later with high interest. Capital will flow to area of greatest return, so you get less money now and less productivity in the near future. Lose/lose.
@@arentyrI own a small UK based company and at this point we are barely surviving. We are taxed insane amounts and I have lost most of my European clients. Most of my friends have shifted their business to Poland and unfortunately at some point I will have to do the same but I can't bring myself let the people I employ jobless. I am afraid it will become a me or they situation.
The economy definitely recovered, it's just that in 13 years the Tory government has never properly relieved the practice of austerity. Most of the current unrest largely isn't because of the economy doing badly over the last couple of years it's because public institutions like the NHS, school system and utilities networks have for years been allowed to be pillaged by private companies or to be funded the bare minimum by the government.
I know what you're saying is tongue-in-cheek, but it's a very important factor that not enough people realise. Wealth disparity is widening and has been for decades.
@@JablicekThis is what the news needs to cover more, instead they are more focused on telling you that people who is a much worse situation than the average English man is the biggest problem you have, and not the fact that 1% of your population holds 70% of the nation's wealth while the working class doesn't even hold 10% of it.
You are missing a pretty crucial point.... Here the point is that the high Gini coefficient of the UK versus e.g. the EU contributes to lower productivity growth. The lower end of the income scale are only poor people if there is high socital wealth differential (high Gini-index). Because the UK is a very unequal society (e.g. by northern European standards), lower income quartile/quintile does equal poverty. That is not necessarily the case elsewhere. Poverty alignes with worse educational, health etc. outcomes for the following generation(s), and is hence a drag factor for productivity growth.
I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same markt raking in over $200k gains with months, I'm really just confused at this point
Yes, a good number of folks are raking in huge 6 figure gains in this downtrend, but such strategies are mostly successfully executed by folks with in depth market knowledge
I agree. Based on personal experience working with an investment advlsor, I currently have $985k in a well-diversified portfollo that has experienced exponential growth.

As a non European it is interesting to see how British publication called German Economy 'sick man of europe' forgetting how bad its own economy is terrible. Now DW brings to all how UK economy is trumbly.
Have a look at the German economy, it is pretty dire. This report is made for their home market that is locked into Brussels. Just a matter of time until German politicians wake up and move their targets for zero
TBH, UK might need Jeremy C. Nationalising certain industries (e.g. infrastructure) will make long-term investment easier and make the planing and business less profit driven.
I personally couldn’t care less about the environment if families right now can’t afford food in one of the richest countries then spending billions on green projects and HS2 is insane
After a massive rally in stocks came and yields collapsed, bond yields and the major averages are higher on Wednesday. How do we deal with such market conditions? Typically my $2m worth of holdings go up 8% then lose 20% right after and the cycle continues.
Investors embracing the idea that abruptly cooling inflation will put interest rate hikes on ice. During recessions your dividend gains or income reduces. Speaking to a certified market strategist can help with navigating this downturn.
True, some folks employ hedging strategies or devote a portion of their portfolio to defensive assets that perform well during market downturns and such pointers are provided by engaging the services of market experts just like i did in 2019, amid rona-outbreak, and as of today, I'm semi-retired with barely 25% short of my $1m retirement goal after subsequent investments.

3:17 “unemployment has risen … bank’s books that’s a positive” - translation for people not holding shares: that means more people won’t be able to afford things, like food, which would reduce the inflation prices on food(less demand, lower prices), instead of the alternative which is to raise salaries which would reduce shareholder profit margins on their investments(banks make most of their money on these same investments).
@@realfreedom8932 This idea of fighting inflation and especially food prices inflation by making people dirt poor to not be able to afford it, kind of came out of US and seems to be very popular with investors
Here in the US (East Coast) everything has gone up as well, but for some reason I find the cost of construction materials the most jarring. It was not long ago where basic 2x4s were quite cheap (around 2$ each) along with many other materials so the biggest investment to a simple project was your time. Not so now! Those same boards are 5$ each and its all multiplication; 25 boards here or 40 there. And of course you can replace "boards" with "just about everything else" in terms of price hike.
Everyone thought ( and still thinks) that wealth can come from multiplying money in hedge funds and not from ordinary, decent work and production - so we have the results.
I was very surprised that this lasted so long as a news piece. Surely all it required was for a reporter to ask the question in the title to some expert and that expert then just reply, "Yes! Unequivocally yes!"
Constant policy changing since 2008 has removed confidence of foreign investors in the UK, also mass immigration as well as allowing non resident foreigners to buy housing as an investment has crushed our property sector making it unaffordable for poor natives. Not to mention the lack of political will to deal with problems rather than pass the blame!

@@MrHighRaw oh...sweetie. Food and clothes aren't much cheaper in Llandudno than London and rent has followed the trend of the capital albeit to a lesser ratio.
It’s the adjustable mortgage rates that’s killing you guys. You need to have fixed mortgage rates so you have have the same payments thru thick or thin. The fact that a mortgage can increase 1000 pounds bc inflation goes thru a high period is insane, of course people are losing houses. That’s why it was banned here in the US. People like security, that their rate won’t change despite the state of the economy. If anything refinancing can make it go down.
The UK has definitely not lost control of it's economy. That's why it's in the dumper. Brexit was all about keeping control and that has worked out that way. It's just that it was all a very bad choice that will most likely just go from bad to worse for some time to come, but the UK is firmly in control and there is no one else to blame for the fiasco.
Huh. A German news channel suggesting that Britain's economy is struggling, when the German economy has crashed through the floor! Broadcast a feature about how the kingpin of the EU has gone bust.
Germanys economy has growen continuously. UKs GDP 2023 is nearly the same like 2019. UKs national debt is 100% equivalent of its GDP. Germanys is 60%. Forecasts say, in 2024 Germanys economic grows will be recovered.
No point gloating at Brexit UK, the sick man of Europe, Germany, is facing a gloomier outlook with no prospect of cheap energy and accelerating deindustrialisation.
Norway, Iceland and Switzerland are doing good outside the EU. But the UK is in flux, a state of "wait and see" ever since 2016. They could co-operate with the EU like theese three (individual agreement) but for intrenal British politcla reasons (Madness?) They are still arguning wheter they should have done Brexit 2016 or not...
Germany has been in reccesion since last winter . Young germans want leave Germany we need 18 million new workers in gemany . The car industry is struggling power prices are alful. Its not like things in Germany are good.
In the end economic growth will be considered synonymous with inflation. Governments are indeed the main cause in price hikes, just to inflate their economic growth rates. Not at all beneficial to any of our wallets!
Governments worldwide must limit profit margin capitalists can make to 5%of invested capital. 2. Curtail uncontrolled capitalism. 3. Find out how much is personal wealth 9f the rich people. And set a limit on an individual can amass wealth. Distribute generated wealth to workers as more wages. Simply using interest rate as tool to control inflation will not work.
Millions of Britains awaiting hospital treatment, 15 million living in poverty including 5 million children, huge explosion in food bank use, millions in in-work poverty, renters and buyers in a crisis people experiencing both eviction and repossession, wages especially in the public sector way below rates of inflation, no money for doctors, nurses, consultants, plenty of money for Ukraine !!

The current UK Government has totally destroyed this country's economic performance. I just hope the Electorate will realise, having witnessed the failures of both the 2 major, traditional parties they should carefully consider the strategy of the REFORM UK Party which in theory should address all the major issues we are all now facing.
Why DW is making such assumptions? Looks like unfriendly kick in England’s butt. Let England speak on their own, make assumptions about Germany’s own economy😡👎🏼
The UK has had such issues for a very long time. Productivity is low and they seem to rely on short term "quick fixes". The education system, housing market etc are very long term. The complete unpreparness for an energy crises is typical. Only after it is devastating is someone reacting. How about a plan?

The UK needs to either join the EU or NAFTA to get out of these problems. Lowering standards, removing regulations and investment in the local economy do not work otherwise. The UK needs a big market to export its products and services to. It also needs to produce more at home, especially food and raw materials to get a positive import-export balance.
The problem are : uk already out from EU once and to back again is hard unless UK ready to downgrade their deal...something that I think UK will not do that. Same with NAFTA, The problem is UK are too close with US, it will make other member worried that UK will use this relationship for their advantages
I’m honestly unsurprised Green energy measures are being rolled back. Here in the UK, myself and my own family included, are struggling to heat our homes due to rising energy cost. Renewable sources of energy like wind just is not efficient enough and coupled with the uk leaving the energy zone, costs have risen further. It isn’t a good situation and pressing consumers harden with green measures will only exacerbate an already shrinking economy.

Inflation is a little higher (+0.5%) in the UK, growth (-1.0%) and unemployment (-1.5%) are a little lower in the UK this year. Growth was also higher in the UK in 2021 & 2022.

As someone living in the U.K. I really haven’t noticed any difference to my standards of living apart from things being more expensive in supermarkets and high fuel prices but isn’t that synonymous to all western countries at the moment?
no everything is becoming more expensive at an unsustainable rate, my parents own a business and the ingredients they buy in bulk increased massively in 2022 q4 and this year, although prices are getting lower it isn't good that small business and people who are very susceptible to price changes such as people with mortgages who can't really pay it right now due to the interest rates are losing money quickly. Because we're all going to have less disposable income due to paying more, the economy will slow and we will also be poorer in real terms, if wages don't increase.

Things have been pretty dire economically here in Britain for the last 15 years, real terms wages are still lower than they were before the global financial crash in 2008. Unsurprisingly, Brexit hasn't been the answer to all our problems!
Agree with this. 15 bloody years it's been awful!
Some pretty interesting economic numbers in the UK.
It's interesting to hear of so many who voted for Brexit, because they thought it would lead to much less immigration.
Instead, many have experienced great difficulty, and immigration is now highest in history.
The current PM comes from immigrant background
+600k net immigration in 2022 alone. This country is falling apart.

The financialization of the economy produces intense and rapid accumulation of wealth in the hands of a few. But the price of this is the reduction in economic activity, the collapse of the population's consumption power and the unsustainable imbalance in prices, causing both popular reaction and uncertainty that slows down investment. At the base of the problem is neoliberalism and its predominance demanded by the ultra-rich and influential financial elite.
@mikes4142You don't. You keep sinking until you try something else.
Neoliberalism???? 😂😂😂😂😂 more lack of it

Capital is taxed too little, work (employment income) taxed too much. Companies have way too many advantages relative to their regular employees, this brings even more money in the hands of the capital holders. If you do the same work as an employee or a freelancer, you'll just make so much more money being freelance. Discovered recently that being an employee just simply makes no economic sense. You can't pass inflation to your employer, there is nothing you can deduct from taxes, hourly rate much lower than freelance.
😅😅😅😅😅😅
@xkolm49 When you talk about “freelancing”, you should try actually talking with some self-employed and small businesses in the UK. It is terrible (hence why so MANY small businesses have gone under in last 2-3 years), and the idea that you pay less tax overall is laughable. Sole traders/self-employed are too small to benefit from any tax perks, don’t get all of the various company benefits, and the overall tax burden can be just awful. I think you really have in mind various “consultants” and “independent executives” that are associated with offshore/shell companies and financial machinations; totally different thing. Talk to small business/sole-traders across economy today and see how many are really doing well in the current climate. And finally things like mortgages etc are massively hard to get if you’re self-employed, even if you have an established business. Self-employed are still treated very much as second-class citizens in the UK economy.
But taxing the rich doesn’t help the common person. It sounds great but in reality nothing really happens. Govt just gets richer and spends money on things that are irrelevant to the poor.
What drives employee productivity? Capital investment. Taxing capital more is just a short-term play. Spend the money now and pay the debt later with high interest. Capital will flow to area of greatest return, so you get less money now and less productivity in the near future. Lose/lose.

The UK hasn’t really recovered from the global financial crisis.

The economy definitely recovered, it's just that in 13 years the Tory government has never properly relieved the practice of austerity. Most of the current unrest largely isn't because of the economy doing badly over the last couple of years it's because public institutions like the NHS, school system and utilities networks have for years been allowed to be pillaged by private companies or to be funded the bare minimum by the government.

'There's a lot of wealth but not in the lower end of the income' Thanks Bergit I didn't know that. I thought the poor had all the money.

My reading is that she was saying, quietly, that the only people who benefitting from Brexit were those who were telling people to vote for it.
@@JablicekThis is what the news needs to cover more, instead they are more focused on telling you that people who is a much worse situation than the average English man is the biggest problem you have, and not the fact that 1% of your population holds 70% of the nation's wealth while the working class doesn't even hold 10% of it.
You are missing a pretty crucial point....
Here the point is that the high Gini coefficient of the UK versus e.g. the EU contributes to lower productivity growth.
The lower end of the income scale are only poor people if there is high socital wealth differential (high Gini-index). Because the UK is a very unequal society (e.g. by northern European standards), lower income quartile/quintile does equal poverty. That is not necessarily the case elsewhere.
Poverty alignes with worse educational, health etc. outcomes for the following generation(s), and is hence a drag factor for productivity growth.

Welcome to capitalism.
Here in the US (East Coast) everything has gone up as well, but for some reason I find the cost of construction materials the most jarring. It was not long ago where basic 2x4s were quite cheap (around 2$ each) along with many other materials so the biggest investment to a simple project was your time. Not so now! Those same boards are 5$ each and its all multiplication; 25 boards here or 40 there. And of course you can replace "boards" with "just about everything else" in terms of price hike.
Transportation costs are way up due to the price of diesel.
Everyone thought ( and still thinks) that wealth can come from multiplying money in hedge funds and not from ordinary, decent work and production - so we have the results.
I was very surprised that this lasted so long as a news piece. Surely all it required was for a reporter to ask the question in the title to some expert and that expert then just reply, "Yes! Unequivocally yes!"

Constant policy changing since 2008 has removed confidence of foreign investors in the UK, also mass immigration as well as allowing non resident foreigners to buy housing as an investment has crushed our property sector making it unaffordable for poor natives.

You're exactly right.

The UK has definitely not lost control of it's economy. That's why it's in the dumper. Brexit was all about keeping control and that has worked out that way. It's just that it was all a very bad choice that will most likely just go from bad to worse for some time to come, but the UK is firmly in control and there is no one else to blame for the fiasco.
True. The Tories are in control but are doing what they always do - taking our money and making the rich richer.

In the end economic growth will be considered synonymous with inflation. Governments are indeed the main cause in price hikes, just to inflate their economic growth rates. Not at all beneficial to any of our wallets!
Governments worldwide must limit profit margin capitalists can make to 5%of invested capital. 2. Curtail uncontrolled capitalism. 3. Find out how much is personal wealth 9f the rich people. And set a limit on an individual can amass wealth. Distribute generated wealth to workers as more wages. Simply using interest rate as tool to control inflation will not work.

Brits wanted out of the EU anyway. Just another non-Brit who completely fails to understand.
@@mcarlsson74 probably you're still living in your pre-brexit matrix and in denial
What a bummer, poor Brits.... And after all, the City was supposed to be the "world's financial center" giving great prosperity to the Isles as the Brexiters' fairy tales told....
It won't be so bad with the situation in the UK. They still have money left over to sponsor a war that is not theirs.
Putin is everybodys problem
we have to keep our spirits up and and watching Russian tank turrets explode is fun
Putin for an open window 2024! 😅
If you're from Sweden or the Netherlands, your own ruling class is part of the conspiracy. Own that, and do something about it.
As someone living in the U.K. I really haven’t noticed any difference to my standards of living apart from things being more expensive in supermarkets and high fuel prices but isn’t that synonymous to all western countries at the moment?
Maybe you are part of Sunak family...
no everything is becoming more expensive at an unsustainable rate, my parents own a business and the ingredients they buy in bulk increased massively in 2022 q4 and this year, although prices are getting lower it isn't good that small business and people who are very susceptible to price changes such as people with mortgages who can't really pay it right now due to the interest rates are losing money quickly. Because we're all going to have less disposable income due to paying more, the economy will slow and we will also be poorer in real terms, if wages don't increase. I can't wait till labour come into power.
@@MaxTheLazyCat As such, is your parent going to increase the employees wages ?
Damn, you're rich.
You’re probably in te higher income part of society, the gap between you and those who are struggling is getting greater. This further destabilizes society.
Two years too late, a sheep could foresee this in 2022
Mr Rishi Sunak has invested over 700 millions dollars in vaccine company Moderna.
The corruption in the UK is unprecedented.
America's economy is in shambles also. I’d be retiring or working less in 5 years, and considering this financial recession, I’m curious to know best how people split their pay, how much of it goes into savings, spendings or investments, I earn around $250K per year but nothing to show for it yet.
Do you have a 401k? you should contribute to your retirement diligently, or better still look into financial planning
Very true, I find myself lucky enough exposed to money management at an early age. Worked full time when I was 19, purchased first home at 28, fast forward time... I'm 50 now, got laid off March 2020 amidst lockdown, a blessing in disguise. At once, I consulted an advisor to stay afloat and with subsequent investments, I'm only 15% short of $1m as of today.
I find this interesting. Could you please provide me with the means to get in touch with your Adviser? I am concerned about my dwindling portfolio.
My adviser is "Debra Ella Nicholas". She has since provide entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. You can look her up online if you care for supervision.
Thanks for sharing this, I just looked her up on the web because this is equally important to me, and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.
the problem is UK allows the investors and landlord to speculate on the price of house....We don't have this problem in Thailand
In Denmark a four bedroom house with front and back garden costs £500 a month to rent. Minimum wage is £20 an hour in Denmark. Denmark does not allow foreign investors to speculate on their housing market.
@@dudududuFthetoriesso based.
@@dudududuFthetoriesGood luck finding affordable rent in Danish cities.
@@Exxperiment626 The price of £500 a month is actually AFFORDABLE! I live in UK and I pay more for a room(not a house!)

Britain's economy is out-performing most of Europe.
An increasingly dysfunctional country in fast decline on the fringes of Europe. What a sad sight to see.
I am an Indian citizen studying in UK right now. I believe a solid leadership could change the course of UK's future. It is not because of lack skills, but it is just a transitional phase from which people should come out successfully. Such situation by itself would raise a strong leader, is that you?
You are Indian and have no right to decide what is good for the UK
Strong leadership and colonize again territories? because that is why UK was economically strong before xD
If you are from the UK and having a tough time paying rent, just make a UA-cam video saying something positive about India, 999999 people will appreciate your work and help you become a successful blogger!! Trust me, I am from India.
UA-camrs are actually unproductive people. Become Farmer still better for their country

Yes, it lost control over its economy, but so did Germany.
This channel really shows what German 'leaders' are like when they have a green-light to bully.
UK has lost control of their healthcare system too.
Don’t worry Uk, DW is just as bitchy about France. It seems everyone is in chaos apart from Germany 😂
DW literally put out a video a couple weeks ago referring to Germany as the Sick Man of Europe….
Well there can’t be two then!
DW just hows how bullying German authority figures can be, when they feel comfortable they can get away with it. Very revealing and also disturbing. @@AlexAlex-vn2dz
