Just seen yet another post about rip off Britain definitely worth a read, 100% fact
(Copied)
It honestly surprises me that we just take all these price hikes on the chin, moan about them on social media & dutifully pay the bills regardless.
Gas and electricity prices have risen and are due to rise again In October.
Whilst shell… BP etc raked in 40 BILLION last year alone.
Food for thought …
“If I give you £1 billion and you stand on a street corner handing out £1 per second, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, you would still not have handed out £1 billion after 31 years!
Now read on. This is true and rather hard to really understand.
The next time you hear a politician use the word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into some perspective in one of its releases.
1. A billion seconds ago, it was 1959.
2. A billion minutes ago, they claim Jesus was alive.
3. A billion hours ago, our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
4. A billion days ago, no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
5. A billion £s ago was only 13 hours and 12 minutes, at the rate our present government is spending it.

AND I’m sure you can think of more......
STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?
Not one of these taxes existed 60 years ago, and our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt.
We had the largest middle class in the world. A criminal’s life was uncomfortable.
What on earth happened?
I hope this goes around the UK.”
But it probably won’t… cos no one seems to care how corrupt and disgusting the government is 🤷🏻♀️
