Michael Caine "I voted for Brexit... I'd rather be a poor master than a rich servant... You get lost, and then you find your way, and it will be alright." This Brexiteer lives in LA, has never been a poor anything, and there are zero consequences for his actions on him.

It's time to treat the causes of inflation. That means a clean energy revolution and cutting our reliance on the fossil fuel rollercoaster. It means an emergency rent brake, and it means urgently looking at ways to cut the costs of the basics we all rely on.
