Why do I live here?!
The UK has the highest retirement age in the world, the lowest pension in Europe, the longest working hours in Europe, one of the lowest minimum wages, the highest energy costs, the biggest profits, and the lowest taxes for the richest. It all needs to change.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The UK has one of the highest minimum wages in Europe & averages a 35.9hr working week, compared to EU avg 37.5hrs. The state pension in the UK is broadly average or slightly above average for Europe. UK retirement age is the same as many other European countries. ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/p… ec.europa.eu/eurostat/stati… fullfact.org/europe/pension… statista.com/chart/amp/2957…

Energy price cap will rise by 5% in January – that new-found wealth everyone received yesterday didn't last very long, did it?

I hate doing this, but I am desperate for sales, as currently a few hundred pounds short of being able to cover my bills this month. Please, if you’ve ever thought about buying from me, now would be a great time. Even if all you can do is retweet this, I’d be so grateful (1/2)
