Heating and electric is a god given right and should not be owned by private companies nor should we pay for it to the extent of what we’re paying,

People don't choose to live in poverty. Please help them.

Poor man, that's horrible!

I’ve got to stop going the pub as much and eating out

Well if that's the only way to pay for it

There's increasing pressure on wages, but real elephant in the room are house prices They're significantly out of control & have been for decades Mortgage payments/rent make up a significant % of people's monthly outgoings; this is the problem that people don't have anything left

Welcome to Tory Britain

Then when why do we see nothing correcting poverty and instead enforcing it by proving your blank faith worthless by seeing nothing return and when you see evil you give it gossip?

If the second job is to pay for electric heating, a conduction hob , solar panels and a small wind turbine then good luck to him. Otherwise, buy a frickin cardigan.

It will be interesting to see how many Tattoo parlors close

Refreshing to hear a hard working family man as opposed to a family on benefits

It mean quit living beyond your means and just survive to make next week not the lifetime when life is meaningless and short. Taoist say life is better when you live only to survive Not to live full life luxury of emptiness

“Quit everything people quit living, and start Surviving”-Taoist

Clearly living beyond his means. Just like the tax credit crowd who with the extra £20 a week over the pandemic got something new on credit rather than realising it would be taken back at some point

Energy price cap: Bill shock for millions as rises hitA host of essential bills - dominated by energy - are rising from now with warnings of more to come. OF COURSE THEY HAVE. How tonedeaf is this tweet How many people get their bills before 7am on the first of the month? I'd have thought not many. Local Borough Council made a big thing of holding down Council Tax, though that is capped by HMG !! Keeping very quiet about Town Centre Car Park increasing 25-40% to make up for massive drop in visitors and income. Income from car parking use to be much higher than Council Tax!
