@higgyboson @StoneAgeDodger Your attitude is fucking disgusting!

@StoneAgeDodger And you'll be following behind but by then it's will be MUCH worse. You see, we're even going to get better aged healthcare than you could ever hope for. It's hilarious 😂

Dear Techboy, You seem to be slightly annoyed at people who own larger than average homes after they've worked for 50+ years. We have a lovely big bungalow with a large garden, summerhouse, huge workshop for me, smaller workshop for Mrs Higgy. The garden faces South so we get lots of sun and, as there's lots of glass on the rear of the house it benefits from huge amounts of solar heat gain when the sun pokes out from behind the clouds in the winter. We're all toasty and warm because we've insulated it really well and have a very efficient heating system. We can park both vehicles on the driveway, which is nice. We have a massive garage too. Which is useful for storing all manner of.... well, stuff. We've made one of the bedrooms into a dedicated music room. It's rather lovely. I can listen to all my old vinyls and, as we're detached, I can play them REALLY loud without upsetting any neighbours. You'd love it. The loft space is absolutely ginormous too. We could probably convert it into a swanky apartment and rent it out to someone for a tenner per month as a "gesture", including all bills, but do you know what? We don't really want to share. We like it as it is. Oh, and we have a huge Easter Island statue in the front garden just because we can. I don't feel guilty about any of this by the way. Mrs Higgy spent her entire 40 year career as an NHS nurse, which is some feat. And, at 66, I'm still slogging my guts out as a Painter and Decorator which isn't just about painting someones kitchen ceiling but involves lots of climbing up and down ladders and clambering over scaffolding etc. So, in summary, we like it here and we're staying.

@Keir_Starmer But it was totally fine for Peter Mandleson, best friend of the worlds most prolific paedophile to work in your government?! Fuck off!

Kanye West should never have been invited to headline Wireless. This government stands firmly with the Jewish community, and we will not stop in our fight to confront and defeat the poison of antisemitism. We will always take the action necessary to protect the public and uphold our values.

@Misa_Roumi Cry me a river!

Tel Aviv now. We are exhausted by this miserable situation; enough is enough.😥💔

@TamdhuL @David__Osland @Possum_PictBot Yes it is and always has been. It may have been mis-sold to the public but it has always been a benefit!

@David__Osland @Possum_PictBot And the state pension is NOT a benefit

When I started paying National Insurance contributions in 1976, the deal was that I'd get a pension providing for a basic standard of living in a then-unimaginable 50 years' time. But now I've finally got there, it's just half the minimum wage.

@WrongWingDeej @jamiexpafc What, a bit like you did when you wrote you're original comment!

@jamiexpafc @PolitlcsUK Bet you felt well hard posting that.

🚨 BREAKING: Wireless Festival will keep Kanye West as its headliner Melvin Benn, the Managing Director of Festival Republic, said: "I am a deeply committed anti-fascist and have been all my adult life. I lived on a kibbutz for many months in the 1970’s that was attacked on October 7th, am pro Jew and the Jewish state, while being equally committed to a Palestinian state.  "Having had a person in my life for the last 15 years who suffers from mental illness, I have witnessed many episodes of despicable behaviour that I have had to forgive and move on from. If I wasn’t before, I have become a person of forgiveness and hope in all aspects of my life, including work. "What Ye has said in the past about Jews and Hitler is as abhorrent to me as it is to the Jewish community, the Prime Minister and others that have commented and - taking him at his word - to Ye now also.  "Ye’s music is played on commercial radio stations in this country. It is available via live streams and downloads in this country without comment or vitriol from anyone and he has a legal right to come into the country and to perform in this country. He is intended to come in and perform. We are not giving him a platform to extol opinion of whatever nature, only to perform the songs that are currently played on the radio stations in our country and the streaming platforms in our country and listened to and enjoyed by millions.  "Forgiveness and giving people a second chance are becoming a lost virtue in this ever-increasing divisive world and I would ask people to reflect on their instant comments of disgust at the likelihood of him performing (as was mine) and offer some forgiveness and hope to him as I have decided to do"

@50Penc3 @MatthewStadlen @PolitlcsUK Zero comparison between Ye and John Davidson and I'm saying that as someone who fully supports Ye playing at wireless, I have no beef with him but you really can't compare the two!

@MatthewStadlen @PolitlcsUK Do you have this same outrage for the racially abusive man with Tourette’s?

@AnneGibson2958 @MariaBaird13 Oh please, nobody in this country is picked on more than the ill and disabled, you've got the whole of the right wing fighting for you, nobody fights for the ill and disabled! Grow up, Anne!

So pensioners are going to be £570 pa better off, where do they get these figures from. I'm getting £24 month rise. Council tax, water, phone energy etc etc, therefore I'm worse off by £32 per month at least 😡

@IsabelOakeshott Why the fuck should a shop assistant on minimum wage risk their safety to protect store profits? Fuck off isabel, you cunt!

IN an extraordinarily stupid statement, Waitrose has just declared its stores are effectively a free-for-all. The company has publicly confirmed staff are told not to tackle shoplifters. How do they think this feeble policy will lead to less theft??

@pedleysjohn @Grumpy0ldGiit @premnsikka @UKLabour No, they don't hate people who think it's acceptable to just keep popping out kids they can't afford, which is evident by the removal of the two child cap!

@Grumpy0ldGiit @premnsikka @UKLabour They hate everyone, small businesses, the sick, the elderly, anyone who claims anysort of benefit (inc pensions),but if you're rich and giving away freebies, hell, they're your best friend and will do anything for you. NEVER voting labour again,EVER.His dad was a right tool maker

UK disability benefit cuts New applicants for the health top-up to Universal Credit to receive half of the current rate whilst cost of living rises. If you lose your benefit and reapply, you get the lower rate. Thousands will be pushed into poverty. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@TheChowsen1 @BrownLesley784 @premnsikka The two child cap allows people to breed willy nilly and not think of the consequences of doing so, breeding is a choice, being ill or disabled is not.

@BrownLesley784 @premnsikka 2 child cap somewhat addresses our plummeting birth rate This condemns many disabled people to a much earlier death

@finaleaesthetic @PopBase No, could you imagine what they would do it if they did. Yanks are fucking scum!

@PopBase They should bring back an alien

The Artemis II crew sends a message to humans as they prepare to temporarily lose radio contact signal behind the far side of the moon: “To all of you down there on Earth — and around Earth — We love you, from the moon.”

@AuraBarn @LGIS2025 @PopBase 🤣😂 So do the yanks, like literally everything! Absolute scum of the earth!

@LGIS2025 @PopBase Because Chine always lie about everything, every single time, in every situation.

@samp070719 @PopBase We? I legit couldn't give a fuck and think it's a massive waste of money and resources!

@PopBase Moments like this remind you how connected we all are .

@Rab_Dickson1 I got sick of the boomers and the silent generation punching down on the ill and disabled 🤷🏼‍♀️

I never remember my generation, or the one before, decrying people who received the state pension as some sort of scrounger class. What has happened to people?

@janetorion1 @shanebrown74 @Miss_Snuffy

@shanebrown74 @Miss_Snuffy I know a lot that don't!

What is clear cut is that those with degrees have contempt for those without. Try getting a real job one day, build something, run something. Have some god damn respect. 😡

@Peachyfruitcake @Elizabe13014545 Yeah, then they can live out the rest their days alone in a care home!

@Elizabe13014545 They should just spend it and have a great time!

The answer to the young people complaining how well off the older generation are is for their parents and grandparents to change their wills and leave their money to charity. Perhaps then young people would have to work as hard and make sacrifices as their forefathers did.

@mic33244 @sophielouisecc

@sophielouisecc The true English need to go on a rotating general strike until your government collapses. It is that bad.

I will have to work nearly 500 hours, in order to make what the average family is going to get in extra benefits once the 2 child cap has been lifted. They don’t have to get out of bed WRONG on every level

@treblewinners99 @SandyofSuffolk Well isn't she lucky that her health has permitted her do that, Laura! The fact that you people think everyone starts on the same footing and is awarded the same opportunities is becoming fucking nauseating!

@SandyofSuffolk Same here our son and daughter own their own house have done in early 20’s both worked daughter from 14 in local hotel .. never stopped since then when going to college too only time she had time off was maternity leave !! Neither ever claimed a benefit !! Neither have I ..

My daughter owns her own house in West Sussex. My two stepdaughters own their own houses in Cornwall. My eldest grandson is buying his own house, on his own, in Lancashire. My eldest granddaughter is buying her own flat, on her own, in East Sussex. Because they have a work ethic and aren't spendthrifts.

@mazmelia @SandyofSuffolk Or, she could so us all a favour and just punch herself!

@SandyofSuffolk It’s not about hard graft. Some people have more than one job and still find things difficult. Punch up, not down.

@SandyofSuffolk @FplToon @mathewadamplays @0xpers3phern @GlenSmith174927 Try getting a fucking hobby or a life then!

@FplToon @mathewadamplays @0xpers3phern @GlenSmith174927 I'm retired. 🤣
