Scrapping winter fuel payment is wrong, but REAL SCANDAL is that UK state pension is one of WORST in Europe!! MINIMUM wage is Β£22k but pension is ONLY HALF THAT at Β£11.5k! 1m elderly living in poverty! Judge a country by how it treats it's vulnerable!

So just me and Keir Starmer's mam that don't understand the public's PURE HATRED for him. I get the u-turns and the winter fuel mess were annoying, but after 14 yrs of tory I find it hard to dislike this govt, I think a lot of the hate is fuelled by the media...π€? Just me thenπ¬

Not just you! Heβs not perfect but heβs a damn sight better than anything we had for the previous 14 years. I hope he doesnβt let them bully him into resigning.

I don't get all the hatred either. He's not the most inspirational person, and McSweeney steered him wrong on many issues, but I don't understand the demonisation. There's a lot of good happening that is never mentioned in the MSM.

UK - torn apart by Brexit and Osborne's austerity budgets. A war in Ukraine. Fascists on the rise in Europe. Worse of all Trump! This is what Starmer had to contend when he became PM. There have been mis-steps, but open your eyes & look at what has been achieved in such a short space of time.

Nope, me too! It's utterly deranged and akin to the hatred foisted on Meghan Markle by the same sections of the media. Same media who are selectively reporting, misreporting and lying whilst tummy tickling Farage. Its hideous.

Pls support RSPCA campaign to pre-stun ALL animals before slaughter! π In 2024, 26.7m chickens, 3.1m sheep, & 35k cows were slaughtered without pre-stunning & would have felt pain during the neck cutting process, up until they lose consciousness.

The cost of living isnβt mentioned anywhere near as much as it should be! I was shocked when buying my usual Hovis small white loaf had shot up by 25p, an increase of 25%! Our pensions wonβt increase by that amount, thatβs a dead cert.π‘.

The outsourcing of call centres to far-flung places is a MAJOR PROBLEM for UK consumers. I feel SO sorry for the workers, but 50% don't have necessary language skills. It's so risky when purchasing expensive contracts: a mistake can cost Β£1000s. Good for company profits thoπ

So Epstein was funded by Putin as spy to blackmail world's bigwigs. Maxwell's dad also Russian spy. Why not more about this on main news? "Epstein's sex empire was 'KGB honeytrap' with Russian girls flown in to harvest 'kompromat'".

Epstein's sex empire was 'KGB honeytrap'
The release of more than three million new documents relating to the late sex offender gives credence to claims made by senior security officials: that Epstein was working on behalf of Moscow.

Chilling to see the Ron L Hubbard Scientology wierdos in Sunderland trying to find their next sucker by offering "Free Stress Tests". People don't realise they are a dangerous cult who exploit their recruits.

A financial YouTuber I follow made a video about a year ago, talking about how Epstein got rich. Because nobody knows. How did a dude from a working class family with no connections become a billionaire? Nobody knows where the money comes from. Well, somebody know.

Anyone who has read the book Entitled about Andrew and his awful, shady wife, Fergie, will have zero sympathy for her. She's burned through millions, sponged from various dodgy sources. And a multimillionaire is never homeless!
