For anyone wondering inflation has nothing to do with the minimum wage. Here are 5 reasons for inflation that have very little to do with minimum wage. Remember this. 1)supply chain shocks 2)global events 3) corporate pricing power 4)monetary policy shifts 5) demand surges #eattherich #minimumwage

As today is remembrance day, this is my great grandfather's death plaque from WW1, he gave his life to the military and all the military gave back to was this, do not let war be glorified, it is unnecessary, let remembrance day be a reminder to the stupidity of war. #remembranceday #remembrance

If you are confused about what to call Prince Andrew now that he has lost his titles don't worry I'm here to help. May I suggest: "The pedo formerly known as Prince" #princeandrew #royalfamily

A county council in Kent controlled by Reform can't put up Christmas lights 🌲☃️⭐ because they put up England flags. 😂😂😂 Is Britain great yet? #reform #ukpolitics

For anyone who has never seen this screen before this one is for you. Not to brag or anything but I've just completed the first Super Mario game after many many years of playing. I consider it a life achievement.

The world has gotten worse right? It's not just us getting older and realising we were ignorant to the troubles of the world? We haven't fixed anything since I was a kid. We found problems pointed them out and just continued on the same path.

Hey everyone in the UK a really really bad FREE VPN is Proton VPN. You definitely shouldn't download it to easily by pass the new online safety law. Also you definitely shouldn't download "duckduckgo" so your search history isn't saved. Don't use them together for extra security #onlinesafetyact #uk

Update: I've been blocked from playing "Kneecap" and "Bob Vylan" on the radio. I'm sorry I tried. I said nothing political on my show all I did was try to play their non explicit songs. #kneecap #bobvylan #glastonbury

One of the scariest things that is happening to the UK is the Americanisation of our culture. This is Britain not America. KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF MY CULTURE. We have free healthcare (the amazing NHS), no guns and legal free abortion. If you disagree go move to America.

Here's a take you won't see in the BBC. It's good to see the Royal family are still trying hard to make it seem like they are good for this country and aren't just parasites sucking the public's taxes like a slimly well dressed leech.

Does anyone just stop and realise we are surrounded by death bringer machines. We design them to look all sleek and smart. Meanwhile the world boils around us. Don't worry your car stereo will still play you the hits. We are lobsters driving kettles and boiling pots. 🦞🦞🦞

There was a last time you were in a CD store and you didn't even realise it. Good memories pawing through endless rows of CDs seeing what you could find. Even if you still do this in record shops it's not the same because you know all this music is accessible through the rectangle in your pocket.

Even if The Royal family weren't involved in this suspicious circumstance. They are indirectly involved as su1c1d3 is a symptom of the abuse she suffered. My heart goes out to all people affected. I'm sorry this tragedy has happened and I offer my condolences.

In the UK 1 in 3 kids live in poverty yet the UK government is going after trans people. Are these really the serious issues we as a country should be concentrating on?

Well Katy Perry is clearly a terrible person. How about you don't lecture us "poor people" about saving the planet especially when you've just ripped a new hole in the ozone layer going to space for 13 seconds. You are what is wrong with the human race.
