YouTube video by Peter Stefanovic The Bank of England governor says Brexit has undermined the UK economy. Hold onto your seats..

β€˜We’re getting poorer’ says Nigel Farage in his Beth Rigby interview.

I agree. The Brexit he championed is on course to cut UK trade by a staggering 15% - a huge reduction in the potential economic performance of the country at a time when every penny counts

Thank you for helping the children. I help run a community free food provision and several schools have now set up food collections free for kids to take home this costs the schools nothing. Feeding people should be law even it's its basic stuff. No one should go hungry.

I do understand I am a school governor and only recently at a combined event we were told of incidents were children with no cash on the system were refused food and took food from bins. It appalled me that school staff we told not to feed kids with no credit or parents in debt with the school.

Schools do need more funding I agree and often children with no credit on their school account miss meals when debts are not paid. It's happening a-lot. Feeding the kids is a great start to improving their wellbeing. Even some middle income families are feeling the strain now.

Andy seriously all children in society deserve to be equal in school I was laughed at for having a food voucher in school.

…. "I went into hospital and because I didn’t declare it, I lost my benefits, my housing benefits - they sanctioned me. So they stopped all my money and I couldn’t afford to pay my rent," he explains.

Liverpool: Austerity City How 14 years of Conservative-led cuts have damaged a city and its people

As I’m fairly new here, I wanted to share a major project that we published earlier this year

It’s a months-long deep dive into the devastating impact of 14-years of Conservative austerity policies on a city and its people

This is Austerity City

This @bsky.app is absolutely nailing in it in every way. In layout & functionality it already feels like home. If numbers keep growing in this phenomenal way & with advertisers fleeing X like rats leaving a sinking ship I can’t see how the other place can survive, at least not in its present state
