00:00I do quite well financially, but I've definitely noticed in the last few years
00:04the cost of living has really increased. I've got three young children,
00:08food shop has definitely got more expensive, even just for buying
00:12basics like milk and bread, so much more expensive now, and I'm definitely
00:16shopping around a little bit more than I did before, trying different
00:20supermarkets and trying different brands. Every six months you go
00:24to buy something, it's gone up, and unfortunately
00:28people's wages and pensions don't go up as quick.
00:31In the shop, paying £5 for a tub of butter or a pack of cheese,
00:35I just want to enjoy my cheese on toast. I definitely think that more needs to be done,
00:39I think the system is broken, I'm a socialist and I believe
00:43in taxing the rich, I feel like the benefit system needs
00:47some huge changes, I think there needs to be more means-tested services for people,
00:52people should not in this day and age be living from food banks
00:55on a weekly basis. It's embarrassing to think that that's the world
00:59that we're living in.
