Watch as Will Kensington expresses concern about the state of the UK, arguing that Downing Street is no longer a place of power but has instead become Britain’s most expensive Airbnb.
This comes as Andy Burnham is set to become the UK’s seventh Prime Minister in a decade, with seemingly no one challenging the “King of the North” for the country’s top job.

Pretty soon there will be stories about the rise in suicides across the country due to quality of life being so low that people would rather be gone than to try and survive.

We pay a fortune already on energy, my equipment takes electricity and I will need some heat to stave off episodes of emphysema (I am not a smoker, I have a hole in my heart which has caused early severe lung disease) amongst other things, I can’t afford to not use my nebs, I need my adjustable bed amongst other things. I did work until this year and would still be working but I had another heart attack and a TIA and was finished. My husband is now trying to figure out how we can afford both food and the extra heating we will need. I know we are most certainly not alone, it is a worrying time for most everyone.

Read through the comments. Lots of non disabled and uninvolved showing you exactly why the disabled will be thrown into the poor house and uncared for. You are not even human.

70% of disabled households don't have anyone disabled in them and are just fleeing the system, often foreign. I know THREE who do this all foreign. But this is a disgrace for those who are disabled and suffering this…

Why when energy prices are going through the roof , why was edf Hinckley b allowed to be shut down deliberately increasing fuel prices , Hinckley c is still 5 maybe even 10 years away , the shutdown affects all the south east to Norfolk grid , unless there is a huge safety issue at the plant that the public wasn’t made aware of , Hinckley b should have a continuation license issued till Hinckley c comes on line

What on earth is a disabled household? Possibly a household with a disabled person/people living in it? Come on.GB news, yeah there’s this whole PC brigade I know, but ‘disabled household’ – sounds like something in the house has been rendered out of use!!!

I'm sorry I used to work as in-home care for severely disabled individuals.
Never heard any of my clients complain their energy bills were doubled.
One gentleman with a wheelchair van did point out that the conversion costs half again what the van does.

I would cut off my gas because of the rise in the cost of delivery of gas to my door. However if I cut off the gas I won't have any heating or hot water for washing etc.. I am going to use candles etc. because when you are disabled you can't make up the money later. I am so concerned for many disabled people. Some of us are still paying bedroom tax. 🙁
Thank you to Sense and Mr Kramer for caring and raising their voice.

So really are they not claiming what they need to after all disabled even some faked ones are raking it in big while we have to pay multiple taxes to pay for everything but seem to get the raw end of the deal.

Indeed, so the political theatre, the sinister globalist agenda continues, one crisis after another, one more attack on every aspect of our lives. Covid, Global warming nonsense, the green energy insanity, now illega wars, all part of the WEF Davos great reset agenda, you will own nothing and be happy. Follow the power and money every time,
