Alongside re-introducing imperial measures this will be another cynical grab for older votes https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/energy-bills-help-sunak-pensioners-b2088771.html
Schoolkids have missed two years with Covid ffs And aren't we supposed to be selling our goods worldwide since Brexit ... ... what next going back to shillings and farthings.
i don't even think this is the reason any more, greed is ruining the planet and i think more and more are becoming aware of that (deforestation, cheap plastics etc etc) but those in charge have more than enough money, they can never ever spend it. i now firmly believe this is all about complete control, little by little they have altered 'acts of parliament' to strip away the rights of the people. nothing major just a little change here and a little change there and most are quite happy to let them get on with their jobs as long as they still get their 2 holidays abroad and the next mobile upgrade while they feel happy contributing to a better world by buying an electric car (ignoring the mining and exploitation and waste needed to make the batteries) and pretty soon will be just as much at home letting that vehicle take control and do all the driving for them while that latest mobile phone upgrade keeps track of everything you do and every penny you make (cashless society is coming for a reason) and every single purchase you make and no more making a few quid doing a weekend job or trying to fiddle your taxes. boris is just the latest and most blatant liar we have had at number 10, go back to the 70's i would say to find the last labour party to carry any sort of clout but they too grew into the idea that they have jobs for life, just change your leader and enjoy a few years on the gravy train cos lets face it, even coming 2nd means 5 years of good pay, benefits and expenses...actually, the 70's was probably the last decade when we all had weekly pay packets and the 'if you cannot afford it, do without' attitude, now they just want everyone to have debt.
I’ve said this before, why would you want to win a election, much better to rake in a fortune being total nobody’s who can say what they want and pray they don’t win the next election, Cushty!
Johnson is a narcissist. Most of the cabinet are not skilled enough to rake in a fortune, except by getting back-handers from, e.g. PPE contracts, piecemeal privatisation of NHS, fossil fuel industry
Wash your mouth out with soap and give your head a shake... I voted Brexit, but almost didn't cos of that loon.
He was just reading out figures that other channels won’t, but if people want to do an Ostrich, fair enough.
back to imperial? it's a no thanks from me, even if i am an old dinosaur...at the time i obviously never wanted to go metric as imperial was all we had known, these days the vast majority were brought up with decimal and most struggle working in 10's so how the feck will they manage with imperial??
It's absolute insanity. Brexit was supposed to mean we could negotiate deals with European countries and those around the world. This is all making us look like we want to go back to Colonial days, the British Empire and sugar plantations. The PM is taking this Churchill obsession to uncomfortable extremes now.
