Only up Norf. Down Sarf it was fine....

Yet another baby boomer blaming the kids for everything.

If only the baby boomers had brought their kids up teaching them respect, hard work, etc, rather than replacing it by giving them toys and money.
Remember, it's always the kids fault for how they were brought up, never the parents.

...according to snowflake boomers.

Parents have no way of disciplining their kids these days. Gone are the good old days when you could beat them to within an inch of their lives. Or buy the local bobby a pint to do it for you.

Could have added something like "We had only one Bakelite GPO phone in the house, rather than every family member buying a new smart phone full of rare earth minerals every year or two and discarding the old ones".

In Zurich late 1980s all supermarkets only gave out tough paper bags. And had been for a few years. I thought the UK would have been there by now....

Lobbying by the supermarkets, I suspect. Much easier to carry on as we are but charge the consumer 10p for each plastic bag than upset the supermarkets, which are the cause of the problem...

Is it because of how all supermarkets support Jeremy Corbyn? After all, he’s the reason why everything is wrong in this country, it’s never the fault of the tory government.

Not really - although he is a bit of a ******.

Actually caught some footage of him at Glastonbury the other day - it was like watching your dad try to be trendy - it was awful.

But not sure he has anything to do with supermarkets.
