@UnitZee @iSlimfit 😃 what she had in there would kill me!

British people will spend £4 on a meal deal every single working day, never cook, never calculate the annual total and then wonder why they can’t save. £4 a day is £1,040 a year. Eaten in a park. Under grey skies. In a triangle sandwich. This is not judgement. Just observation.

@prinkasusa So all these WASPI women are lying about being destitute because they were given the same retirement age as men?

I’m going to piss some men off with this, but the reason a lot of your parents and grandparents stayed married so long is because the women in those generations were financially trapped. When a woman makes her own money, the only thing a man can truly offer her is how he treats her. That's why there's a male loneliness epidemic.

@10DowningStreet @Keir_Starmer Was the y missed off every so that when it is shown that you haven't pulled every lever you can deny ever having said it?

This government will always act in the national interest, on the side of British people. From today, you will see wages go up, bills come down, and more support for those who need it most. We will pull ever lever possible to tackle the cost of living.

@JossSheldon Did all those people come in three decades?

Britain has been multicultural ever since neolithic farmers joined the mesolithic hunter-gatherers, around 6000 years ago (if not before). Beaker people. Britons. Celts. It was always a mix. If you don't like multiculturalism, you don't like Britain. Please feel free to leave.

@GMK1706 @Saskiaaa_____ Using the same argument, minimum wage doesn't matter because if they have the skills etc, their salary will increase.

@Saskiaaa_____ If your regular salary hasn’t gone up it indicates a you problem, a skill issue or a lack of motivation to seek better

£26436.80 is the new min wage annual salary (40 hrs p/wk). And as the min wage rises, regular salaries don't. So many people will begin to ask themselves 'why am I working this highly stressful job that needed qualifications and a tonne of bullshit paperwork and police checks just to earn 5k more a year than I would stacking shelves at Lidl?'

@MosiniElisa No-one ever said we couldn't cooperate with the EU. But it is possible to do that from the outside as we do with nations around the World.

The UK will rejoin Erasmus Negotiations are starting for the UK’s entry into the European electricity market and participation in EU cohesion policy This is a victory for everyone who believes in cooperation and a shared future between the UK and the EU We’re not stopping here

@Keir_Starmer You're resigning then?

I will always make decisions that are in the national interest. It’s why we aren’t getting dragged into the Middle East conflict, and why we are fighting to protect your living standards. And while opposition parties have responded by dividing communities, we respond with hope and pride. Pride in our communities, and the hope of a country that’s better for our children. That’s what we’re fighting for. Vote Labour on Thursday 7 May.

@Ravenismeee Many a mickle makes a muckle

I’m 23. Give me oddly specific life tips. No general ”surround yourself with positive people” tips. I want the most random, specific advice possible.

@ZackPolanski Because the other marches are against something that exists?

How can the BBC justify how much coverage they give other marches which are significantly smaller in size? The bias is so obviously blatant. theguardian.com/uk-news/live/2…

@williamnhutton And the percentage of total energy usage?

Ed Miliband gets relentless bile from the right for his ‘ideological’ commitment to clean, cheap renewable energy - just as Nye Bevan once did for creating the NHS. Yet on March 25 97.7 % of our electricity was from renewables. A revolution is unfolding. observer.co.uk/news/columnist…

@Eddystone506 @RoryMaw Please show your workings out in full detail to obtain full marks. That's maths.

@RoryMaw 1) Brexit far more damaging than Covid 2) Even Leave fantasies can't undo simple compounding. 0.5% lost growth per year = £1 trillion cumulative by 2030. 🤡

By 2030, Brexit will have harmed the UK more than 2x Covid By 2040, Brexit will have cost the UK over £2 trillion in GDP foregone. You may not want to accept this because your ideology makes it hard to admit, but maths is maths.

@StuartBarclay11 @RacingTV @RandoxHealth @AintreeRaces Throw in Liverpool playing at home starting 5.30pm and it becomes ludicrous.

@RacingTV @RandoxHealth @AintreeRaces Surely the Grand National should have been run this weekend? 2 weeks after cheltenham, no football competition it would have been the centre of the sporting world. Weather nice and cool, rain on the way. Seems a huge opportunity missed

After today's forfeits, the top 34 engaged in the £1m @RandoxHealth Grand National. 25/1 chance Panic Attack guaranteed a run! @AintreeRaces

@robprogressive Perhaps they already have financial security and just want a bit of short-term fun.

A lady in front of me in the queue spent £58.70 on the lottery 3 people before her all bought lottery tickets, spending £2 to £12 The odds of winning the lottery in the UK are 1 in 45,057,474 This highlights everything that is wrong with how people are taught about money in this country That £2 or £5 or £10 a week, if invested & compounded over decades, could meaningfully contribute to their future financial security

@BlackIslePMD Watch The Last of Us.

Why are people against moss in lawns? It looks great feels soft and bouncy and doesn't need mown. A section of my front garden is now 90% moss with some heather, dandelions and a smidge of grass.

@m9QD6L4IgW @socialistp40357 If that was the case, you would expect the assisted dying bill to breeze through.

@socialistp40357 Spending money on non productive people is just seen as a waste. That's why also healthcare is becoming increasingly worse and more expensive everywhere.

The establishment and the rich detest the working class. That is why the retirement age has, and continues, to increase. The current government and opposition parties don't want to pay state pensions. They would rather you work to 70 and then drop dead after your final day!.

@QueenJenbo @ZackPolanski @JamesEFoster Oh, the old insults trick against anyone who disagrees with you. How kind.

@ZackPolanski @JamesEFoster I see the mudslingers are trying extra hard today 🙄 How stupid they look to oppose the things you’ve mentioned here.

Looks like people want to tax billionaires, low bills and protect our national health service. A party that puts compassion and kindness at the centre. Join the Green Party. Join.greenparty.org.uk

@ZackPolanski So your solution for the NHS is to just throw more money at it? If you go and spend some time in a hospital, you will see wasted resources wherever you look.

@progambler47 Unless you understand the concept of risk and reward and capacity for loss.

Never, ever spend any money on the following: 1. The National Lottery 2. The Postcode Lottery 3. Scratchcards 4. Fixed Odds Betting Terminals in betting shops 5 Online Casinos 6. Accumulators ( 4 legs or more ) on any sport
