@jamestroe The likes of Tesco's won't like this but old fashioned milk delivery rounds must be taken away from usual delivery apps for the young.

🚨 NEW: A Government review has found employers must adapt to the "bedroom generation" of unemployed 16-24 year olds by offering more flexibility It says they're "not snowflakes or faking it" and their anxiety and depression is linked to growing up on social media [@thetimes]

@stuey_beef General Election week Starmer pretended he was the late Ken Morrison. American company. The free for all system doesn't suit them and they can't make money from passing trade in store products.
English
Morrisons just said the quiet part out loud.
Around 100 convenience stores are now on the chopping block.
Hundreds of jobs are at risk.
And the reason given is not “greedy supermarkets”, not “corporate profiteering”, not “Tory austerity”, not any of the slogans Labour spent years throwing around.
It is “significant cost increases resulting from Government policy choices”.
That is corporate-speak for: Labour made it more expensive to employ people, more expensive to operate, and harder to keep marginal stores alive.
This is the basic economic reality the Government pretends does not exist.
You can raise employer costs and call it “fairness”.
You can increase wage mandates and call it “growth”.
You can load more regulation onto businesses and call it “responsibility”.
You can demand lower prices at the till while making every input cost higher behind the scenes.
But eventually the spreadsheet wins.
And when the spreadsheet wins, shops close.
Not the imaginary shops in a Treasury forecast.
Real ones.
Local ones.
The ones people use for milk, bread, prescriptions, newspapers, top-up groceries and last-minute essentials.
The ones staffed by people who do not have the luxury of working from home while lecturing everyone else about “resilience”.
This is the part Labour never wants to own.
Their policies are always sold as compassion.
But the consequences are brutally practical.
A store that was just about viable becomes loss-making.
A worker who was just about employed becomes “at risk”.
A community that had a local shop now has an empty unit with metal shutters.
And then ministers will stand up and blame “global pressures”, “market conditions”, “corporate decisions” or “the legacy we inherited”.
NO.
Morrisons has named the problem directly: government policy choices.
That phrase matters.
Because it means this was not inevitable. It was chosen.

I still can't get my head around this.
Keir Starmer *took the knee* for George Floyd.
He *spoke in parliament* about Adolescence, a fictional Netflix series.
But when Henry Nowak, a young white lad, is *stabbed to death* by a Sikh man and HANDCUFFED by police while he was dying, Keir Starmer says ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!
The man is morally repugnant.
I utterly despise him.

@PreetKGillMP Deputy West Yorkshire police Khan was ex 'community' police in Bradford. Got a New Years Honours this year. Silence from everyone on a womans modesty shop in the new Bradford shopping mall. Starmers Silent Moderates everywhere is the problem with the culture in the UK .

The loudest people do not get to define patriotism. In a healthy democracy, loving your country means defending standards of decency as much as symbols and slogans. Rachel Reeves is absolutely right on that. 👇🏽

"Just because you’ve got a flag in your van and you scream at people in the street doesn’t make you a patriot." Chancellor Rachel Reeves tells Channel 4 News' Economics Editor Helia Ebrahimi that being a patriot is about "loving this country and treating other people with respect", after being heckled during a previous interview.

@KieraDiss I own a retail shop in Bradford city centre for 17 years and I clearly remember the new multimillion pound British market described in T&A newspaper as Eastern, open air and selling everything in the early planning stage. No surprise this mall has opened.

@ShabanaMahmood Leeds will very soon have the highest student accommodation block in the world. Fake students not coming is part of the net migration. Their old student houses will be full of hotel immigrants near the student bars.

Good news for families: Children across England will get free bus travel in August.
UK Prime Minister@10DowningStreet
We know that families are still feeling the cost of living pressure, so we’re delivering immediate support. Free bus travel for children this August and action to cut the cost of everyday food. Helping families get through the holidays and putting money back into people’s pockets.

Trump & Vance need to stop meddling in British politics and fix their own country.
Here’s a message back from the UK: we don’t want your division, conspiracy politics or MAGA culture wars. And we don’t want unarmed civilians shot in our streets.
Britain is better than that.

Where is Starmer’s speech about this disgraceful failure of policing?
Visegrád 24@visegrad24
🇬🇧🇵🇱 "I can't breathe" were the last words of Henry Nowak as he was handcuffed by the British police while heavily bleeding. According to testimonies presented at Southampton Crown Court, 18-year-old Polish-British student Henry Nowak managed to tell neighbors, "I've been stabbed," and "I'm dying" when the police arrived at the scene and handcuffed him over false racism allegations from the man who attacked Henry first.

@Benleo General Election week he went to Wakefield Trinity ground which is in the so-called diverse side of town. There is a mosque right next to the ground now with tall spires which can be seen clearly from the crowd. I wonder why Wakefield voted for Reform.

I don’t recall a post from the Met police regarding attacks on synagogues in the USA nor the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
They have, however, commented on this and the death of criminal George Floyd.
Very hard to say that there’s no two-tier policing in the Met establishment.
