@thereceiptsandthereality: That creeping dread at the till? Not your fault. UK food prices are heading 50% higher than 2021 (ECIU, May 2026) — because our food is chained to oil and gas, and a few companies profit while we pay twice. But governments follow the market — so we have more power than we're told. This week, move one small slice of your shop to local food for local farmers (try the BigBarn map or CSA Network), influence friends and family to do the same. Let’s rebuild the system from the inside out, one brick at a time. 🧱#FYP #news #costofliving #climatecrisis

Not just oil, it’s supermarket greed too. They continue to make record profits, year on year. Tesco made around £10 billion! Disgusting.

The Guardian - May 2026 "The boss of Tesco made £10.8m last year, about £1m more than the year before, as the UK’s biggest supermarket hit its highest share of the market in a decade. Ken Murphy could make even more this year after being handed a 3% rise in basic pay to £1.54m and cutting food waste was scrapped as a target for his long-term bonus, according to Tesco’s annual report."

how absolutely insane (but thanks for educating), I honestly cannot believe how much food and energy costs have gone up

I think on top of that everyone one is exhausted. No one has the energy or time to cook from scratch for 3 meals 7 days a week.

I've boycotted Tesco this year because the prices are insane and their SC is terrible to UK farmers.

I live in St Leonards so I get my fish from the fish mongers as it’s actually cheaper than the supermarket fillets and my fruit and veg from a small shop down the road but I’ll venture a bit further to buy other bits to join cutting out supermarkets!

I hate spending my money in supermarkets, get my fruit and veg delivered and buy meat, milk, egg, butter etc from local farm shop. I buy the cheaper cuts and eat less. I live rurally and feel super privileged I am able to shop this way, wish it was more accessible for all. More community growing spaces needed ❤️

Tomorrow I’m dropping a free, comprehensive report on the maths of Britain’s energy transition — the full picture they’d rather we didn’t connect. It covers: what we’re really paying for fossil fuels, the transition balance sheet, how it pays itself back, and the surplus (and benefits) it creates. Fossil fuels = renting power at a premium. Renewables = owning it, cleaner and cheaper. I mythbust the misinformation, map where oil and gas are hardest to quit, and lay out an accelerated pathway because this is an emergency. Plus: what’s holding us back, the practical realities of greening your home, why grants fall short, a government delivery scorecard, and an action checklist. Free to download: full report, TLDR summary, and a “make this report for your own country” guide. All in plain language. The money is there — it just needs redirecting. Politicians and big business can’t argue with the maths. The more of us who know, the more pressure we can apply. You’ll be surprised what you can do, you’ll see why it’s stalling, and you’ll find real hope inside. Like, comment, repost, share in DMs. Every little helps and you matter. Our children deserve a future. 🌎

At this point we as communities need to get together and start helping each other out. If there’s something you would be happy sharing at cost value everyone would appreciate it

Yesterday I spoke about the real financial elements stalling the transition to green energy for personal home, personal transport and pension, and why we absolutely need to make the transition. Today I discuss exactly why it’s so important and how personal use switches like home and car and pension truly tackle between 50-60% of the problem, that’s even without changing food, industry and aviation! So it buys us valuable time, slows the problem by about half, is actually easy and has the solutions, and then we can tackle the bigger problems as we go along.
