Gary predicts the UK government will struggle to support consumers during the energy crisis and may implement further austerity due to high borrowing costs, low growth, and high debt.

Gary believes government policies of capping or subsidizing energy prices are bad, as they repeat economic mistakes from COVID-19, leading to decreased government wealth and increased wealth for the rich.

Rising interest rates will increase mortgage rates and the cost of government borrowing, making it difficult for governments to support consumers.
