Can we launch a class-action lawsuit against recipes that say "30 minutes preparation time!", then leave you - two hours later - a broken-down ruin, standing in the burning rubble of the kitchen, practically wearing the contents of the fridge?

In fact, health/disability benefits are a nightmare to get. The process takes ages & often itself makes people iller.

And both Universal Credit & other benefits are so low many people can’t even afford to eat & pay the bills.

Which also makes them iller.

I think Kier and his team are doing a great job of clearing up the mess the tories left UK plc in. They’re getting a lot of flack they need to be strong and stand by the decisions made so far. If they weaken or let the farmers bully them - that’s it for me - strong leadership and smart moves needed

With the snow falling it’s hard not to think of those sleeping rough and how difficult it must be

In Liverpool if you see someone sleeping rough, the Severe Weather Emergency Protocol has been activated today and people are urged to call this number if they see someone on the streets

Without effective music education in state schools and high quality instrumental/vocal tuition being provided for free to low income families, the numbers of state educated people attending conservatoires and becoming pro classical musicians simply won’t increase.
