£35,000 a year in the UK in 2026 puts you in the lower class.

15 years ago it was a comfortable graduate salary that bought you a decent flat, a few holidays a year, a savings habit, and the realistic prospect of a house.

Today it gives you take-home of about £2,200 a month. Rent on a one-bed in any city worth living in starts at £1,200. Council tax £170. Energy and bills £300. Food £400. Travel £200. That's £2,270, before you've bought a single thing for pleasure.

You're behind on day one of every month.

The wage hasn't moved much in real terms in 15 years. The cost of everything around it has roughly doubled.

Every wage bracket has shifted up by one rung — the £35K that put you firmly in the middle class 15 years ago barely keeps you afloat now, and the salaries that used to count as struggling are quietly slipping into poverty.

The official conversation hasn't caught up.

Anyone calling this an 'economy that works for ordinary people' isn't talking to many ordinary people.

@bwhorseracing @vickigibbins101 Because they can use the hoses to keep horses cool until last minute and horses will generally be a lot calmer and more relaxed in the stable yard which is what you want in extreme heat not getting them revved and sweaty unnecessarily

Michelle Keegan says Keir Starmer telling us to prepare our sons and daughters to fight against Russia is absolutely comical...

This is one of the most heroic acts I’ve seen in my life.

It’s so rare to see true courage, this is it.

@MCYeeehaaa @plumptonraces @AtTheRaces If I was riding in a race and A, I wasn’t 100% sure what was going on , and B, others were pulling up I’d probably rather be on the cautious side and pull up rather than keep going and risk disaster
