@jaymzdenning Women are far more likely to die in car crashes because all testing is done with dummies reflecting average male weight and size, but you men are covered so fuck 50% of the population right? I mean i'd quite like to not die but don't let that interfere with your narrative.

Here's a little look at German cost of living vs British cost of living, which goes a long way to explain why British people are suffering- despite the UK being ome of the richest countries in the world

BREAKING 🚨 | The gender pay gap is now 14.9%.

This means women have worked from January 1st to today - 54 days - for FREE.

Rishi Sunak has claimed that to pay a 10% pay rise to all public sector employees will cost each household in the UK £1,000. This is what I call CRAp - which stands for a ‘completely rubbish approximation’ to the truth. Let me explain…a thread…

It’s freezing. Postal workers are under more pressure than ever. They are struggling financially. They are on strike again tomorrow. Royal Mail are attempting to destroy their terms, conditions and the service they provide.

RT this if you stand with them.

Have always thought that if you look at someone's job and think that you could never do it, then the people who do deserve the money they want.

Average London rent £21,984

Average food bill £4,500

Average utility bill £1,500

Total 27,948

Average nurses pay £27,055

A nurse can’t even afford to live a decent life in the UK

I will support their strike action

RT if you will too

🎉Happy Birthday @BBC on your 100th birthday! When you were founded we had a King, no one knew if they could afford to put their heating on and we'd just lived through a global pandemic. Times really do change!

The tech who did my breast ultrasound put gel on the wand and said "Here comes some warm jelly!" and started whoosh-whooshing it toward my boobs like an airplane. Then she stopped dead, mid-whoosh, blinked, and said "I'm sorry, I have twin toddlers, I am... fucking exhausted."
