We don't do politics, mostly lack on interest and knowledge
Seems very much like discussing football much should of could of would of.
In the 1970s through to 2001 we had an consistently growing antiques business a steady inflation of 5 to 10 % in most quality non fashion based antiques. Antiques were the go to inflation busting items, 9/11 changed much of that and antiques now have very much become decorator tools and fashion items, and prices rise and fall.
Funny enough in the late 1970s like the early part of the 21st century we had various silver and gold booms. We have a Labour government now, its seems little surprise but everyone will face much more costs, landlords, pensions, employers, drivers etc.
Throughout time gold coins have been exempt from Capital Gain and death duties, whilst not an accountant, think unless an act of parliament a coin of the realm will still be a coin of the realm and therefore free of these costs. Suspect as the next five years progress there will be an improvement in personal assets such as antiques and jewellery as suspect less easy to tax than other things, time will tell, but quality will always win through.
