I don't begrudge this women her pleasures given what she's been through and wish her well but the costa cup kinda ruins the cost of living crisis messaging.
@Dr.JazzyBones PhD It's more the words "I don't know how I'm going to _survive_" while sipping what is a $4 lemonade... Compared to real poverty, this is more than surviving.
@@DoseofSociety I'd argue paying £ 3 for a lemonade from a chain and taking that for granted is part of the problem. It's only a "crisis" in the very narrow lens of the want-all-get-all-gluttony of the past 30 years, go beyond that and people didn't walk around with £ 1000 computers in their pocket and accept paying 12x markup for a drink of pop.

The idea that someone treating themselves to a drink is deemed a 'luxury', just shows the crisis this country is in.

So you use your benefits, which many people pay their taxes for, on Costa?
Her daughter actually took her out for her 60th birthday and bought her the drink 🥺
