It's as if this is the only time ever that people are struggling, ridiculous. Have folk forgotten how bad it was in the 70s?

Have folk forgotten how bad it was in the 70s? The 70's were nothing like today. the money the poor spend on rent & heating alone, as a percentage of their outgoings, bear no comparison to the 70's. The main problem of the 70's and 80's were the start of mass unemployment and not prices. In every age, there have always been a proportion who have struggled, but it's never been as hard a world to struggle in as it is now and I've watched the struggles from the 1940's onwards.

Jack Grey Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 The Guardian want to ban Megayachts because of climate change 🤣 I've said hundreds of times in this forum that the left have weaponised health and climate change to get rid of things they don't like..... because those two things can be applied to anything on our lives 🙄 https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/dec/11/megayachts-environment-carbon-emissions-ban Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our gas fire in the 60s/70s wasnt expensive, but we just had the one, not central heating. But of course we have climate change now! Not like Jack Frost on the bedroom windows, people today are spoilt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
