Cost of cremation deterring people from dying


ree


The increase in energy cost affects every industry, including crematoriums. There is a crisis caused by the cost of dying running parallel to the cost of living crisis, with people now finding death is a luxury they can no longer afford. Tory party members are calling on the prospective leadership candidates to tackle this as a matter of urgency, as the longer state pension is being paid to individuals who are no longer productive, the less opportunity the government has to cut taxes.


A right-wing think tank has suggested that crematoriums in Labour voting areas should be abolished and corpses of anyone with an estate valued at less than £1m be turned into Findus lasagnes.
