  1. Cheap and shit. Perfect adjectives for the Tories really.

  2. It’s not a UK crisis. It’s a worldwide problem. The UK seems to be one of the only nations to acknowledge the problem though

  3. Concrete is found all over the world. This concrete is in Germany, France, Spain etc too. I’ve always enjoyed disseminating which media outlets have an agenda by how they word their article titles. It’s not much, but it’s a hobby!

    I saw this one on France24 recently: “As UK supermarkets ration fruits and vegetables, many blame Brexit for shortages”.

    I live in the UK, we haven’t rationed anything. Everything, ever has always been available. Always. I’ve never seen an empty supermarket shelf and I’m 40 years old, it just doesn’t and hasn’t happened. Anyway, it’s a cool hobby to just examine the language of headlines, all politics aside.
