Nothing like companies profiteering during tough economic conditions, to make ordinary peoples' lives that much worse.
Everyone keeps calling it a cost of living crisis.
But when companies keep raising prices while reporting record profits, maybe we should start calling it what it really feels like:
a cost of greed crisis.

I don't agree with all of Labour's policies, but at least they are talking about real issues that are relevant to everyone.
Compare & contrast with the internet conspiracy theorist crap coming from Reform and its really no contest.
๐จ This is why the right is struggling to lay a glove on Burnham.
Burnham: I want to create a National Care Service and fix social care.
The Right: THEYโRE COMING FOR YOUR PUBS AND BLACK LABRADORS.
Burnham: I want to help people buy their first home without needing the Bank of Mum and Dad.
The Right: TWO-TIER BRITAIN.
Burnham: I want to bring down the cost of the things people actually use every day.
The Right: FREE DANNY TOMMO.
And thatโs the problem.
While Burnham is talking about the things people worry about around the kitchen tableโฆ
โฆbills, housing, elderly parents and whether their kids will ever own a homeโฆ
โฆtoo much of the right is disappearing down the latest internet culture-war rabbit hole.
You can disagree with every one of Burnhamโs answers.
But you still need answers to his questions.

Seems racists don't like being called out...especially on TV...
Youโve called me racist this evening- albeit in a contorted way- but in doing so, youโve lowered the tone of the debate with divisive and inflammatory language.
And absurdly, youโre suggesting that Iโm being racist against myself.
Itโs because of irresponsible language like yours that we in Reform need security.
The left can keep smearing us as racist for challenging the cosy consensus on mass migration but we will not be bullied into silence.

People who link nationality to genetics are either incredibly ignorant and uneducated...or closet Nazis...
Suella Braverman, consider Walter Tull.
Born in Folkestone to an English mother and a Barbadian father. A footballer for Tottenham Hotspur and Northampton Town. A British Army officer who led soldiers into battle and was killed serving his country in 1918.
If your definition of Englishness excludes a man like him, it is your definition that needs challenging.

If you ever wondered why you shouldn't vote Reform...just take a look at this list of people they consider to be "not English"...
๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ According to Suella Braverman and Reformโฆ

And thatโs just off the top of my head.
Absolutely disgusting. They are English.
Reform have made their position clear.
You can only be English through your ethnicityโฆ
โฆthere is a word for that.

Reformers being dumb and racist again... ๐
If you're born in a particular country - what other nationality should you consider yourself to be? ๐คทโโ๏ธ
A black man "I'm an Englishman"
Braverman "well...actually...no you're not"
An MP sitting in an English parliament involved in making laws to protect us all tells every black and brown person BORN here that they aren't actually English- because she set the bar at five generations and set it at white.
How is that patriotism?
Car Crash.

Doing this should lead to your car being seized and crushed.
Some people just should not be allowed to own cars (obviously starting with the dickheads that use their phones will driving).
Elite work. Two cars, two pavements, one shared commitment to making pedestrians walk down the middle of the road.

I'm happy that Britain will develop its own AI...but don't say we will be world leaders when we are clearly playing catch-up to the US, China and even Europe.
๐จ WATCH: Andy Burnham says he will create a "global code" for AI so Britain can "capture the benefits"
"We led the world's first industrial revolution from the Midlands and the North of England. So why can't we lead the next one? We can, and we will"

Then throw in Israel's plan to build the E1 corridor settlement to prevent any chance of a Two State Solution ever being possible.
Then they have the nerve to criticise Palestinians for making unreasonable demands.
Show this to anybody who still denies the genocide.ย
These were all people's homes. Completely and totally destroyed.
These images should haunt those who enabled Israel's crimes against humanity - and we will never give up until there is justice for the Palestinian people.

The senile Fat Orange Clown apparently doesn't even understand what "artificial" means, despite the masses of artificial colour he has painted on his ugly mug every day. ๐๐คฆโโ๏ธ
Trump: โWeโre going to be signing a document today at about 5 oโclock, renaming Artificial Intelligence, because itโs not artificial, we all agree on that, and weโre going to be renaming it Super Intelligence, officially renaming it.โ

News reports I've read describe the men as "British nationals". No mention made of their religious views.
Randy Fine might also want to learn what "released on bail" means. ๐
This isn't the US where ICE thugs can drag you off the streets & lock you up for not being white.
Get your bases out of our country then you dumb fat fuck. Nobody wants you here. No one here wants to be your ally. Fuck off.

These stomach-churning twats feel entitled to hurl abuse at people for just doing their jobs.
But they'd be the first to scream abuse / harassment if the roles were reversed (and record it on their phones).
Absolutely despise scum like this.

A rare feelgood moment on social media...
A British farm has unveiled a giant pumpkin mosaic of Sir David Attenborough to celebrate the naturalist's 100th birthday.
The mosaic broke the farm's own record for the world's largest squash mosaic.
The record was confirmed by Guinness World Records at the unveiling of the artwork on Tuesday.

Musk would be like those parasitic aliens from Independence Day - moving from one planet to the next, extracting anything of value and not caring if he trashes it in the process.

Nelson Mandela and Dummy Tommo.
One imprisoned for nearly half his life because he was considered a threat to white supremacy.
The other a petty criminal.
Totally valid comparison... ๐คฃ
Nelson Mandela spent 27 years imprisoned under apartheid. Danny Tommo has been charged with criminal offences. Iโm going to need a lie down after that comparison.
