Rip-off Britain

[Tuearts right boot]

The problem with Corbyn is that he's a real nut who surrounds himself with real nuts. Yanks set Trump up to win by putting cardboard cutouts against him so he couldn't lose, looks like he'll do the bad stuff that they never had the balls to do.

The Tories are Cunts
Labour are Cunts
Maybe we should find out how many Cunts there are in Reform?

They are all a bunch of twats

Labour just want your money and they'll take it, turn you upside down and watch the change fall out and waste it on quangos and union holidays.( I've just watched 7 blokes spend 2 weeks pressure washing a stretch of pavement on a busy A road, traffic lights and road blocks and there's only me and 3 other dog walkers use it. FFS )
Tories take, at least you know they'll take and they'll try and use it for the better of the country.
I'm going to vote Reform next time and see what a fuck up they can do. I like Farage, bless him

He does surround himself with idiots though and that's on him. Plus he's a posh **** with loads of money.

His views on Jews wouldn't go down too well specially after he supported that cabbage Abbott with her views recently.

But as you rightly point out, you can't get your teeth done anywhere for love nor money, well maybe money but hey ho ;-)

His "views on jews" has been nothing but supportive historically. The official record keeping of Parliament lists many many interventions to support, protect and fund many projects for the Jewish community. He has historically had a problem with the Israeli Government which obviously via a Far Right iteration has now gone full crazy. As for Diane Abbott, if you're talking about her comments on racism and its propensity to show itself on the doorstep of people with a different coloured faces, as opposed to people with a different religion. Well, I don't totally understand the outrage to be honest. That's just common sense isn't it?

Bog Roll.... jesus.. how expensive has that stuff become? Oh my God!.... Rip-off

After just spending 30 horrendous minutes in JD Sports and noticing the absolute minimum you need to spend for some half decent trainers is 100 quid! I got to wondering exactly how screwed our country is price wise. We all know the biggies, highest leccy/gas charges in Europe, Water (it should be this country's oil, thanks Thatcher) Council Tax, Petrol, Insurance, House prices.. obviously I could go on. But how about the relatively under the radar rip-offs that we all kinda accept?

The match..... rip-off
Cinema.......rip-off
TV package.....rip-off


To a degree I guess, again, they are fairly well known. But how about...

A pie. Greenhalches bakery £3.50! Rip-off
Small Bottle of Pepsi. £1.70.... Rip-off
A placcy bag at Tesco.... 40p. Rip-off
A car service.... £200/300 minum. Rip-off
Hair cut.... £10/20. Rip-off
New boiler. £3000/4000. Half a day's work. Rip-off
Windows cleaned, average semi... £8/10.... rip-off
New Roof. £8/10k. Rip-off
X Box Game. (Download) £60/70 Rip-off
Taxi to airport.... name your price... Rip-off
Train fare say Manc/London.... Rip-off
Chocolate bar £1/1.50 Rip-off

Obviously I could go on. Feel free to list more or indeed justify WHY a plasterer can earn more than a doctor! It obviously points to broader issues though. We don't say NOOOOO enough in this country. We don't get organised and plan to boycot set stores enough. We could have a monthly lottery and pull a Rip-off business out that hat and say This month, nobody is taking their business to Tesco or Halfords or Tui etc. Maybe theres other tactics we could use as the absolutely hammered consumer. Enough surely is enough?

A plaster will go no further, the Doctor will easily double that later in life!

You'll catch an idiot with that, make no mistake :)

Might be just me but paying 60p an hour for a video game sounds quite expensive.

Ever been to an arcade? £1/2 a pop for a few mins at a time.

To put it into context,

Cinema, £8/15 ( depending where you go ) for 2h?

DVD/BluRay at £15/20 for 2h or so. Maybe up to 10h or more if you watch all the deleted scenes and commentary etc.

Concert £100 a ticket for maybe 3/4h

An album, £12 for what, 45 mins?
