I just want to cry every time I see Javits Frimpong’s picture.
There is so much innocence behind his eyes and demeanour. Sweet boy did not deserve this. He was just going to school.

You still have to work in a socialist or communist society. Those economic systems are not a hiding place for lazy people… he who doesn’t want to work, doesn’t eat.

A heartbreaking tragedy. Fifteen-year-old Ghanaian Jarvis Frimpong was reportedly shot dead in the Bronx by teenagers who had bullied him. His father revealed that Jarvis had only arrived in the United States a year ago. Watching his father break down in tears is absolutely devastating. A young life cut short, a family shattered, and a future stolen. This is truly heartbreaking. 💔

so a young Ghanaian boy was bullied in the Bronx and he was eventually shot and killed. literally was such a quiet kid and he came to America less than a year ago. His dad has been in America for the past 26 years. xenophobia is genuinely despicable. I’m sick to my stomach.

If you can’t afford to pay your workers the minimum wage, let alone enough to live on, maybe the real problem is that your business model isn’t viable 💀
The way these guys talk about wages as if they’re a discretionary expense and not a basic cost of production is wild to me.

If you're complaining about the minimum wage increasing, you should remember that the value of the pound has fallen by a third this decade. And that doesn't account for disproportionate increases in the cost of essential goods like food, energy and housing.

Tesco could pay every worker an extra £10,000 and still make a profit.
British Gas could pay every worker an extra £35,000 and still make a profit.
Shell could pay every worker an extra £300,000 and still make a profit.
It is the billionaires who are ripping you off.

“How dare they!!”
Actually, raising the minimum wage is the least they could do with every other bill & expense rising..

It's actually laughable. The biggest farce of it all is the fact that the personal allowance still sits at 12.5k. The same as it was 7 years ago pre covid when everything is about 50% more expensive since then. They're genuinely just taking the piss out of working people.

If you cancel your TV licence you can put the money towards your next gas bill and stick the heating on for a bit.

Ms. Rachel invites a 3-year-old Black boy to her show and calls on sports teams and soccer stars to step up, celebrate his talent, and help him after a viral video shows him being kicked out of a soccer game by police for being too good ❤️👏

The gag is that this was supposed to be over the top and incredible because it was Chinas “entrance” as a serious powerhouse to the world

its actually quite refreshing to have a PM whose embarrassing history involves raising money for charity, rather than burning £50 notes in front of homeless people and shagging pigs...

The PM said on TV show 'Gogglebox' for Stand Up To Cancer he has a "clang of anxiety" when discussing dancing - after taking part in a charity event for the Rob Burrow centre for MND
