    Just checked. Scurvy cases have doubled in the last decade. Still rare but it’s not exactly a stat to be proud of.

    Sounds like Raab’s baby is falling apart at the seams. The bill he’s drafted to erase human rights is apparently so full of holes it isn’t worth the paper it’s written on and so badly drafted it’s just going to get pulled apart in the houses while debated. Good old Raab.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Another Brexit benefit. Why have 1 standard phone charger when you can have eleventy. No doubt the phone chargers will be happier for it. Scrapping the benefits barrel now. Hopefully the phone companies won’t see the “benefit” of not standardising for one spec in the corner of Europe so this...

It’s the same thing that effects everything else, higher prices of raw materials, higher prices in fuel which is then leading to higher prices in shipping, rinse and repeat. Try getting a container of something from Asia, it’s at least 5 times...

    So if it’s beyond control because of the Ukrain thing then the arguments against pay increases is surely diminished. Like most people (except the wealthy who continue to get inflation busting richer) in real terms I’m earning less now than I was 10 years ago. My pay packet doesn’t say that but...

    We could always level up. Ie close the inaquality gap. Reverse the trend of the rich getting richer while the poor get poorer. A fairer distribution of wealth is what needed.

    In unrelated news Canada has just put sanctions on Alexander Lebedev as they recognise him as a Putin stooge. That’s the same Alexander Lebedev that Boris parties with. But the RMT…

    Looking at some of the headlines this morning after MSM and Tory MP’s spent most of yesterday trying to blame Starmer for the strikes (and all the other woe’s facing the country #imagineifboriswasincharge) the majority of the headlines today seem to be accusing Starmer of being a coward and...
