Lovely comments part 36 It’s fun to highlight stupid comments, but I don’t want to neglect to fully appreciate how the vast majority of comments I get are super lovely! Here are some from TikTok. Music by @olympiatroutpatrol.

'Shameful' more spent on benefits than jobs for young people, says Milburn The government spends 25 times as much on benefits for young people than it does on supporting them into work, the author of a major review into youth inactivity has said.

Maybe it's time for them to get a taste of their own medicine? 🤔 Fight fire with fire and all that jazz. Red, blue, or somewhere in the middle... we need to get rid of the people that diddle. #justice #hypocrisy #corruption #red #blue
