This is honestly a micro image on what the large scale issue of the UK is today. The UK has ABSOLUTELY collapsed and the poor have never been poorer. We live in a society where we think we're the freest we've ever been with the most opportunity yet it's actually far from that. Slaves to the system, banks & credit.
Pubs and taverns don’t seem to be seriously affected by the high cost of living. No money for heat and food but always money for vices like beer and cigarettes.
I am 27 and I have the attitude that I will keep working until I die. Retiring is a concept that will not exist for my generation. We won't be able to afford it. These community spaces are needed for the elderly
Nobody would want you working in their company when you are above 50/55 and losing your memory and have become slower due to age unless you reach some management level position.
@@wonderwalls3565 Hahaha I won't be losing my memory by 50 and pretty much every company hired people in their 50s. That is not very old at all. You stop being hired when you are incompetent not when you are old. My parents and their parents worked far beyond 50. A management position is very possible.
@@ChrisMinusHumour Times have changed but It could be your field where old people may work. The field that I work in does not have people with white hair.
They actively discourage it , they don’t want working people getting together for a common cause , unless they want you to fight a war they have caused !
Tariffs are ludicrously high, no other country are allowing energy companies to dictate the future of millions of peoples lives & businesses, 1/4 of GDP 3 million Jobs, 60 billion in value to Govt cannot just be discarded
Life seems to back to where we were in the early part of the 1900s. My grandparents were members of coops such as these and community had to look after each other. Hope life does not regress to the 1800s and prior.
You smile when society collapses and people are forced into pubs to try and survive? Look at countries in Europe like Denmark, Germany, Sweden, Austria… this isn’t happening, ask why.
@@Brokout Your talking nonsense. It's the same all across Europe including the countries you mentioned. The fuel costs is due to the Russian war, not UK Govt. You can sit there and moan, or like these people work together to help out. Being a developed country has nothing to do with it. We have had recessions and people have lost their jobs before and people have got through it. This is no different.
Did you not listen to what the people in the pub were saying... you don't have to drink alcohol to go there, you can have a cup of tea or coffee if that's what you like, I don't go to pub's very often but I don't have a beer I have a cappuccino and enjoy myself just as much as the others who drink do.
Well their local Councillors are two Labour and an Independent and their MP is Labour and the MP next door is Green and Brighton and Hove voted 70/30 Remain vs Leave so probably not.
Funny how people naturally turn to socialism when times are hard. Coming together through community driven support, fundraising, food banks etc When the government turns more towards capitalism and totalitarianism, regular people take things into their own hands. Socialism is the natural way society functions, capitalism is how the rich naturally functions, which side are you on?
This is excellent, sadly where I live there is no community and something like this is needed, it is so important for people to come together and help each other especially in times of hardship. I am a firm believer in united we stand, divided we fall. Well done to all those involved.
As a Brit living in the U.S. for forty years now, I wonder how widespread this dilemma is in the U.K. now ? I certainly know times are hard, but can citizens tell me what their experiences are ?
around 2018 it cost around 100 for a 2 - 3 bedroom house a week now it costs about 200 - 250 per week milk was 1.25 now its 2 pound thats just couple examples gas and eletric price has also doubled meanwhile our money is virtualy the same
It's pretty bad Nigel, I'm earning above minimum wage by a margin (single) and I can't afford to save money so I dread to think how single people on minimum wage are surviving. if it wasn't for my landlords having a conscious and freezing my rent I honestly don't know how id survive unless I went to a food bank. basically, if the cost of living rises an inch further and stays till Feb then we are going to see mass homelessness without a doubt.
💗 Wonderful! Inspiring! - I know people are still struggling, but by highlighting stories like this, maybe it'll catch fire and help other communities. Thank you for posting a great piece!
Hospitality worth 1/4 of GDP 3 million Jobs, 60 billion in revenue, pointless to have a Mafia style tariffs, whilst 140 billion in profits by energy companies, Norway tax energy companies at 40% Directly subsidise bills, Which are at normal levels
I must say this and the recent “hope” episode are truly brilliant. As well as the fundraiser. If you’d have told me I mainly get my political video content from The Guardian a few years ago I’d have laughed, but if we can bring the focus back to community perhaps that’s one of the ways we can work together as a country and remember the British fighting spirit. Merry Xmas to all involved in these productions x
I have to admit that in the far east ( HK) people spending in bar not issue even inflation gone up. If a normal UK citizen has this problem just buying a drink then there is a serious problem with the UK economy...
With just the sound on, you could have fooled me telling me this was another episode of "Little Britain". Excellent, apart from on the ground this in reality not being an excellent sketch.
There is nothing like this in the community where I live. I am 72 years old and never has anyone, took an interest to see how I am managing during this cost of living crisis. This is rip off Britain for the likes of the aged, but treasure island for the likes of those not born here.
There might be lots of things happening that you don’t know about. Why don’t you ask in your local library? Just because an area is multicultural, doesn’t mean there isn’t community spirit!
Hi imagecollections- just a thought, if you got to know a few people in these groups, they may invite you for meals, tea or just visits. You may be able to connect. Use your best judgement and all the best to you!
This video has definitely put a smile on my face and people like Ross are a Godsend. However it also got me thinking, when there is a such a bad cost of living crises, how are people still affording £5 for a pint. I understand that we all need to socialise but shouldn’t something like alcohol be a luxury and not a necessity. And it’s also likely that people would 3-5 drinks when they go to the pub (minimum) which is almost the cost of your weekly shopping.

In poor countries people live with other people. Single men need to share accomodation more. Old people need to live together more. We need services to help that. Use our space better.

A fantastic idea. Community is more important than ever. The toll on mental health covid and isolation ushered in must never be allowed to thrive again because of the cost of living crisis.

Yes its quite alarming the rate that they are closing

Wonderful Community Pub. Simply inspiring. Such a positive contribution from working class people in Brighton ❤
Hats off to these people. These are real people with genuine sentiment. Community is how it should be.
Well done, you lot - made my day.
Thanks so much for this- it means a lot!
how do people survive this?
This truly showcases community. Even after watching this video, I feel apart of this pub.
Always a welcome at the Bevy- if you're ever in Brighton!
You feel apart of it? Strange, figured from the rest of your comment you'd feel a part of it.
Where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came.
One can judge any society by the way it takes care of its elderly .

Still don’t understand the culture around alcohol, i fail to understand why people can’t see it being a major negative factor in their everyday lives.
If you let it, yes, no argument. If you have no control, it controls you.
I still enjoy a beer, but once a month.

@@adamweston4152 Some people only hear their inner voice, as twisted as it can be, or not.🤦♂
