Two little girls discovering inflation. The one little girl is a firebrand and I love her accent. "Nine quid for two ice creams! Bloody hell!"

Looks like most here are missing the point (maybe intentionally): expensive as hell, and yer cash ain't no good!


Added extra points if you can figure that this is coming to a state near you. CBDC is inevitable. We're already half-way over the barrel, and that will get us completely over.

Control is easy when TPTB can say what , where, and when we can purchase anything. Be good little peons and eat your bugs.

Those little Cockneys don't know it, but they'll be voting for Brandon.

Little girl is a pistol. She'll be a handful when she grows up.

Some content filters block links to Twitter. I never see the twitter links either unless I quote the message, but even if I copy and paste the link I can see the actual post since I don't have a Twitter account.

They're not cockneys, who are London based. These kids are from the north-east. I'd guess they're from County Durham, which is the next county north from me. The accent changes from Yorkshire to "Geordie", which is even harder to follow and based on the City of Newcastle.

Four quid is definitely bloody extortionate. £2.50 is more normal. As for that little kid, some poor bastard is going to marry her one day, and get shouted at all the time.
