All the coverage of Reeves ‘lying’ debagged in a single sentence.
I’m quite enjoying the 180 turn on a six pence from “you’ve wrecked the economy and created a black hole” to “there was no black hole and this is even worse”.

Might I suggest shopping more in person? Next time you want something and it's 3 clicks away, put off buying it until you can be bothered to go out and buy it in person. If it's not worth the time to buy it in person, then you can probably manage without it🤷♂️. www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...
