I love that they think shopping around for deals or buying value brands might never have occurred to people struggling to feed their kids.

As @Dorianlynskey very wryly says on today's @OhGodWhatNowPod: it's presented as some sort of amazing 'life hack'. ~AA https://t.co/wbuMnlujin

How utterly disconnected from reality do you have to be to think buying the cheaper version is a helpful idea. Do this clowns really think everyone is buying the expensive one today? And is too thick to think for themselves? https://t.co/0fI28NF7YE

Oh, if only we were all wealthy enough to be able to afford a tin of Heinz baked beans. Unimaginable luxury. Hang on, wasn’t that a scene in The Who’s Tommy? https://t.co/MZDtZwnGR7

Yeah but if you haven’t got 25p then you cannot afford any beans. https://t.co/v6CnITWb9O

I don't know, but after thirteen years of being in government, if all you've got is "Eat cheaper beans", I'm not sure you're doing as well as you think. https://t.co/jmS0ez4UJ9

To put this into context, a year ago these items were priced at £1, 35p and 22p, so that's an average price increase of 35%. https://t.co/EbiHT6aCi3
