Energy prices have gone up about 60%. They will go up 80% on top of that in October. They will go up 50% on top of that in January. There is also no end in sight given the current UK policies. Most people accept the western narrative that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction, I mean that this is due to Putins War.
Not going up like that here.
We learned our lesson in 1973.
Sorta.

On the bright side, the 1973 oil embargo which created massive shortages and very high prices in the US (because of our relationship with Israel) led to us to try to achieve energy independence. We are basically there and are net exporters now.
I would imagine that between fracking, nuclear and other energy sources the UK could do the same thing, if there was enough public support.

JD? Sort yourself out an email address. If you've got access to a computer you can do that quite easily. Once you have that, you can rejoin here.

That's Kate Moss's daughter.
She's a "supermodel" apparently.
There was an article in yesterday's paper about the offspring of famous people, all getting on because of their parents.
Brooklyn Beckham got the most cringe factor.
He's been a "photographer" now he's a chef, well he's making bacon butties.

It seems all is not well between Victoria and Brooklyn's new wife.
First Nicole didn't wear the wedding dress Vicks had designed then Victoria hijacked the couples first dance at their wedding and made it a mother and son moment.
Jacki Pickett who owns a chip shop in Scotland has had her membership revoked by the NFFF and TripAdvisor have suspended reviews on her business.
She was escorted away by police after her post for her own safety after a crowd arrived at her shop and has gone in to hiding after her shop and house were thrashed.
Google her if you want the details.

Nasty woman....I doubt she will be selling many more fish and chips.
Many people are anti-royalist, but the queen was a human being too, a wife, mother, grandmother, her family are grieving just as any family would.
No one is asking this woman to grieve, or to feel any sort of emotion, just to respect the feelings of others.
I personally found it equally nasty and distasteful when people rejoiced in Thatchers death.

I consider it immoral to condone the violent trashing of her shop and her house. She provided a fast food service to the community. I hope the culprits are found and brought to justice. I am all for individuality. These people could have just stopped using her shop.

It's illegal to trash her shop, but obviously some people will believe she got what she deserved.
To act like she did was immoral too.

There was actually parties planned to mark the passing of Mrs Thatcher and videos posted of pubs singing and dancing when she died.
It was horrible, it said more about them than Mrs Thatcher.

I've just spent an hour fixing my mum's phone. She had pressed the facility for blind people and switched the keyboard to Spanish.

She was a touch typist and can't seem to snap out the habit. Only the keys are a lot smaller and she keeps hitting the wrong one's! 😂
