Some weirdo conservative member whose family makes six-figures:

"Better to have your lights off under the Tories than them on under the terrorist sympathizers in Corbyn's Labour!!!"

 

 

Genuinely terrified for what awaits the most poor in the UK this winter. Sending thoughts to all UK members whose financial situation means facing the horrific uncertainty rising costs propose.

The fact that energy bills in the U.K. are so high that people are unable to pay them and have to win a competition to be able to, obviously. As if it is some sort of special prize to be able to keep your lights and heating on over winter, and not just a moral human right.

In the future we will have death row prisoners fight it off like the hunger games.

This winter is going to be horrible in Europe. So many people are going to fall into poverty. Scary

The shocking part is 4 months electricity is the better value option then £1000  Truly dystopian, so many families will struggle this winter.

They used to offer prizes like a vacation or a TV but now the UK’s economic outlook is so bad, just being able to not freeze to death is the prize

This. I also think we’ll see way more homelessness in Europe. A lot of low income households will lose everything.
