Poor forecasting of population growth was an issue even before the immigration wave. Now it's obviously worse but you don't see a big effort to account for this in infrastructure design/spending. We typically just stick with the old plan...

Without indexation there will only be a gap of €12,000 between the minimum wage and the entry point to our top rate of income tax by Jan 2026. Pushing workers earning only three-quarters of the average FT wage into the highest rate of income tax.
This is a great thread. And I’ve highlighted this also before. I can’t think of any other country where earning less than double the minimum wage brings you into paying the top “luxury” rate of income tax.
