Rising prices are of course having a real impact on people already struggling with the cost of living.
The charity, Turn2us, which advises people in financial difficulty, says it’s receiving an increasing number of calls for help from those in full-time employment. Among them is a teacher who told Channel 4 News he worries about being able to pay his family’s bills and afford petrol each month.
We were invited inside the call centre where the Turn2us helpline operates.

Word on the street is all homes will be taken and everyone will live in tiny coffin apartments that exist in all cities. Sadly mass starvation is planned also. I went travelling a few yrs ago as I saw this coming 10 yrs ago with getting rid of cash etc Aaron russo mentioned it in 07
While teaching full-time, I got in debt from uncovered medical bills, so I put in an ad for a house cleaner/laundress. I’m not sure which of us felt more uncomfortable upon opening the door that Saturday, me, or the principal of the middle school!

They are showing the trampoline and the nearly new Mazda to make a point – sell the excesses and live simply
Political leaders/decision makers are ruthless for their own population who are barely surviving with greatest difficulties. The agenda of these leaders are to safe guard the rich
& do not bother other population. This is universal problem & now the time has come to kickout these politicians.
It's nice that you can get paid to stay home and care for a family member. I don't believe we have anything like that in the states, though a person might get disability payments from social security, but that's an income replacement, not a caregiver's allowance. We have FMLA insurance, but I think that's limited to 3 months. Maybe 6 months, I cannot remember, I used it when my twins were born. I do remember a significant portion of my maternity leave (I took 8 months) was unpaid and without benefits. I sold all my old gold jewelry to cover the mortgage payments. It was well worth it to have the extra time with my babies.
That's a job that'll drive you into the ground.
And the English people still want to vote Tories!
Hipotherma
what wrong with UK
once was an empire
Each and every politician needs to see this. I know they're aware of the crisis but we need to ram it down their throats.
Meanwhile… The Accounts for the Sovereign Grant, which funds the Queen and her household's official expenses, released a report in the summer of 2022, showing that the monarchy cost the taxpayer £102.4m ($114.6m) during the 2021–22 financial year – an increase of 17% from the previous 12 months.
Don't worry, people are resilient and they are gonna survive. Just keep making troubles to push up inflation and counter balance inflation with interest rate hikes. The worst, we all lose everything and start over again
