No gas where I live. We're still at the candle stage of the illumination evolution around these parts!

Can’t beat a old gas lamp

and coal not stoppering if the government want to stop coal fires then

They should be made to pay to convert everyone with them over to gas central heating

As it’s unfair that people who only have coal heating need to froke over thousands off pounds to convert over just because the government says so

They got the money

National insurance payments add up to 1.2 trillion a year nhs budget is only 166 million a year

That’s 1.1 trillion a year going missing funny when you start add ruing the hard numbers how much the government steals from us

No your fine, the lights will be running on natural gas, you may have difficulty getting coal for the range in the kitchen though.

Can you remember the Street Gas lamp lighters who came round every night to turn them on and then again in the morning to turn them off?

The NHS budget is way more than £166 million per annum.

How's the rest going missing? It's being spent elsewhere, including on state pensions and benefits.

"In 2019-20 National Insurance Contributions (NICs) raised £145 billion. That represented 17.5 per cent of all receipts and was equivalent to £5,100 per household and 6.5 per cent of national income."

A female friend I know still has gas lighting.

She's joined up to Fab and has been taking rude selfies with her box brownie for her profile.

Her username is, Fanny By Gaslight.

Boom tishhhhh!

NHS budget 20/21 is £212bn, £60bn of which is covid funding.

I think the £166 should be billion rather than million, that would be about right for a normal year.
