    Oh thank you benevolent tax man for the equivalent of 8 hours on minimum wage. We’ll all make it through the winter now, thanks to m’lord’s kindness!

    (This gif is from 2009. £103 now is the equivalent of £61.86 then. Just to drive home how hopelessly pathetic Healey’s help is.)

    Maybe a combination of getting used to not spending money and things being increasingly shit, but I don’t know what I would want to bother spending this on.

    Even when I was earning £600 a month on apprentice wages in the late 2010s I don’t think this would have meaningfully changed my life.
