was Boris Johnson ever told to eat supermarket own-brand food so he could live within his means & pay for his own redecorating, rather than asking for a Tory donor to pay for it

Rather than lavishing money on toilet paper, why do the so-called poor not simply use, rinse and reuse the plastic bag that their value pasta comes in
But they don’t want to, do they?

Tory dementor George Eustice telling people to buy unbranded goods to get through the cost of living crisis is just the boost for the local elections Labour need thanks George

George Eustice on the cost of living crisis:
“Generally speaking, what people find is by going for some sort of value brand rather than own branded products they can actually contain and manage their household budget.”
The out of touch @Conservatives are unfit to govern.

Incorrigible FCA had an explanation for the minister’s apparent cluelessness.
Tories only have two explanations for why people are poor:
1. They are wastrels who don't want to work
2. They are in-work, but they don't know how to budgetThat's it, and today George Eustice has gone with number two.#r4today #PoliticsLive https://t.co/iAG16ekSck
