Prices in the UK just feel completely made up now.
How does a weekend in England cost £700 when you can fly abroad for less?
A return train to London is £160.
The same house that rented for £600 is now £1,200.
A full tank of fuel is over £100.
Car insurance goes up 50% despite the same car, no claims and nothing changing.
£100 in the supermarket somehow gets you two bags of shopping.
And we're all just expected to accept this as normal?
How did we get to the point where being ripped off became part of everyday life?
Andy Burnham claims that he has listened to the British public about small boat crossings.
His solution is to create "safe and legal routes.” So he hasn’t listened.
We don’t want that. We want to detain and deport every single one.
@royaltylight@FulhamFan_ What happened to west ham will never happen to Fulham. It's WH's ground (or lack of) thats doing them no favours. Fulham have a more solid foundation than WH...
The problem is we stopped disciplining children and started diagnosing them.
Now we have a society of adults who think everything is someone else’s fault.
@ChinaPatriot99@Dioclet54046121 The reason Silver went to 120 is because the biggest buyer at the time was India...They've stopped buying, which is why the price is now falling

@NickFarmer3@takeitbackUK Im a Breakfast Chef in a Top Hotel in Paignton...80% of the workers here are not English and some can't even speak the language
This is guaranteed to make you laugh. After George Floyd and BLM a government department in the U.K. decided it wanted to make more diverse hires and fully implement DEI. But they found that their Numerical reasoning (maths) test was getting in the way as not enough were passing it…..so they scraped the test to enable them to hire more diverse employees. Guess which departed bit was?….The Treasury🤣🤣 The department than relies on mathematical modelling, economics, statistics probably more than any other decided it was a great idea not to bother checking if their employees could do basic adding up 😳 Total madness. DEI/Woke mind virus gone insane…
Stand on any UK station platform at 6:10pm on a weekday and you'll see what the job actually costs.
Hundreds of people in work clothes, silent, eyes down, packed onto a delayed train home after giving the best 10 hours of their day to someone else's company. Nobody's talking. Everyone's quietly working out how little of the evening is left once they've cooked, washed up and prepped for tomorrow.
They'll do it again in 12 hours. And the next day, and the one after, for 40 years, for a wage that barely moves.

I showed him. He froze.
Then cancelled $39/month in subscriptions in 10 minutes.
Here's everything he didn't know:
