British have always had a cracking sense of humour. Back in WWII the Germans had a great plan to build a fake airfield out of wood, complete with planes etc....the Brits spotted it on a reconnaissance mission, waited 2 years for them to finish building it then dropped a wooden bomb on it! 😂

Although I was going to vote leave after the lie of money we would save going back into our amazing NHS that they have absolutely destroyed to the point it’s on its knees.

@@XENONEOMORPH1979 No, we voted for the Government that would get us out of the EU, as no other party would carry out the democratic will of the people but even they failed to get it done completely.
Because they are not happy about getting a much bigger pay rise than anybody in normal employment, many of whom have even taken a cut due to the GLOBAL recession.
Everyone is on strike as inflation is around 10% and they are being offered around 5% pay rises (if that) but have already been on pay freezes for a good few years. Pay isn't the only issue, conditions have generally got worse as well, with for example the health service being understaffed.
@@Thurgosh_OG That and our economy is slowing because investment has been pulled out after the Brexit fuck up. Everyone is pretty much had enough with the Tory toffs who've been in government for over a decade, a decade of budget cuts to all kinds of services and that includes our health care. Which has been under strain years before the pandemic and nothing has been done after all the empty promises the Tory's have made. That included thousands being put into the NHS once Brexit was done with.
Then you got this dodgy c**t who tried to hide his tax accounts & another sold his 5M pad but got caught. They're stealing the money!! With the visitors on boats popping over...roughly 50 a day what we're being told......we've just gotta bend over that bit more to be shafted.
@@Thurgosh_OG we know the truth when we go shopping one of those brexit bonuses like a crashing economy losing our working rights our rights to protest our environment standards 😎👍
The burnout and a mental health service so abysmal we have 2+ year long waiting lists just to get 8 hours of "therapy" that is like the cheapest, least intensive form of counselling and an absolute waste of a degree.
UK here, on the way home from the pub one night my mate grabbed a for sale sign from someone's front garden and put in in the local church, as he was doing this the police went past..........they were totally cool with us and just told us to put it back and stop doing stupid shit. It was feckin hilarious.
That has to be a brilliant set up. Bloke screaming at what looks to be a traffic warden and then the next clip of a teacher reading out with a straight face the things the lad called someone. What a legend.
The main reason for all the strikes: Decrease in pay wages plus the damage done to the economy during the pandemic. Almost every single service has been on strike, ambulances, firefighters, train drivers, nurses, you name it.
Years ago when I was still living at home, the weather was so cold that not only did the water in the toilet bowl freeze solid, so did the water in the cistern freeze solid, also the drains outside, as a result we had the bath water come up into the kitchen sink, and in the bath as well, the bathroom is at the top of the house, it can get that cold in the UK
The reason the Government's not on strike, is because it regularly awards itself a 14% rise - which also applies to MP's second home allowances, travel allowances, sustenance allowances and many other allowances that other workers don't get... This is in spite of the fact that they are elected by the public to serve the public - yet, reckon that they're not public servants, who were initially offered just 1.5%... Hence, most of the other public servants - local government officers, teachers, nurses, ambulance personnel, refuse collectors, cleaners, doctors, fire and rescue service personnel, train drivers and other railway staff, bus drivers, lavatory attendants and many others - are on strike, for a few days per month! The unions representing them say that the government isn't prepared to negotiate at all; yet inflation continues to be well above 10%, there's a cost of living crisis, people are having to go without food up and down the land in order to feed their children - and/or having to choose between food and heating their homes as energy prices are already over 150% higher than they were this time last year... In other words, everyone - except the government and the energy company shareholders; is being offered a substantial pay cut in real terms, while they alone have inflation busting rises! That's why everyone's on strike!
Most British workers are part of a union. And everyone is on strike because they haven't had a real-terms pay rise in over 12 years, and working conditions in these industries are at a level where working in and using them is deeply unpleasant and often dangerous.
I know this is a month later but I'm replying anyway, I do not agree with public sector workers striking at all. And don't all start on me, I was a nurse for 25 years. Did not like the NHS, pay is shit, working conditions are shit, bullying culture is normalised, so I left 🤷♀️ I would never ever have dreamt of walking out on my patients or colleagues, in fact my Union (RCN) forbade it at the time. But I don't know what they expected, we were supposed to come out and clap them in 2020, give them free cakes and pizza then leave then to deal with the fallout of closing down virtually all services for a year? Good luck with that 😂
Fun fact for ya JT: The "Lollipop" of a Lollipop person has a black segment on it. That black segment is a piece of thin slate on which the Lollipop person can chalk the registration of any vehicles which don't stop and then report them to the Police.
If it's that cold, there's only one solution. Whether it's getting the lock on your car or your door unstuck or getting rid of the frost on your home window(just put it on with a clean cloth and keep it off the silicone/rubber/whatever at the edges), there's always WD40. Works well in temperatures deep into the tens below zero.
For us teachers, we are stricking because not only is the pay rise we have been offered about 5% below inflation, but the government want these pay rises to come out of (already stretched) school funds, instead of from the government coffers, where it should be. This means that the kids suffer as we are unable to buy essential equipment that we need, like books, paper, and (in my case) hydrochloric acid
not only that but funding for SEN is non existent meaning children with SEN aren't having their needs met. Teachers are basically working 60-70 hour weeks in 40 hours and all their spare time at home too.
Personally, I think the government should just sack 95% of teachers and replace them with a Walkman in each classroom. And the remaining 5% should be limited to changing/rewinding the tapes.
@PandaSenpaiii I can definitely relate to that. I'm in school for 7.30 am and leave at around 6pm, and then I'm still working until around midnight, and that's before sorting out my labs for the week, parents' evenings, and department meetings. As for SEN, SEN provision is diabolical
All those weather scenarios u mentioned there JT... That's just a typical morning's weather here in Northern Ireland! All 4 seasons within any given hour or at least by lunch time! Lol!
When I worked in an office, it was an obligation to buy everybody else in the office cakes on your birthday. Not good if you just started a new job or didn't have much money.
Way back in the day, when we went to the pub to celebrate a birthday it was the birthday celebrant who had to buy the drinks. BTW, we were in a pub celebrating my 26th birthday and I got challenged about my age. I couldn’t prove my age so I got kicked out…my own birthday pub crawl…and I got kicked out😳. I did look very young though😊.
We had a pretty cold winter this year, I remember it got down to like -10 degrees atleast, we had snow before Christmas which is highly unusual atleast for my part of the UK
When it comes to taking cake into the office, I can understand IF only one person was eating it all. Sounds like no one shared with the chairwoman of the food standard agency. EDIT: Have to add my husbands response... "why not tell them to stop selling them in shops, you know in case someone buys one."
Love, even warming the key doesn’t work. You have too get warm water too loosen the handle. But you don’t want to do it, cos it’ll be worse tomorrow!!!!😂😂😂😂😂
People in the uk are going on strike because prices like food and water are going up, but the wage is not going up so people are trying to get more money, but there work places are not giving them more money so all the workers are going on strike
not only is cake no where near as bad as smoking, but when you smoke you FORCE other people to breathe in your passive smoke. When you bring cake THEY CHOOSE to have some
@@_Professor_Oak If you want to go outside on a short break, and the closest area is also the favourite smoking spot, this is legitimately a downside. I worked in a college and because smoking outside the entrance was banned, everyone smoked round the side of the building (right next to the plaza and outdoor nursery near my office). I either had to go sit in the coffee room, or have an asthma attack.
You should definitely find Top Gear with Jeremy richard and the other guy who's name escapes me at the moment but their top gear specials with have you crying with laughter.
It depends on the cake, the cake in that video had allot of food colouring "yellow, red, orange and green coloring" not to mention the volume of sugar in icing and in england, it isn't just 1 cake a year, some places have it twice a week so the level of obesity , heart, diabetes.... if it was 1 cake a year, you would be fine!
Yes, that`s what we do with Seagulls! Take a look how we handle a wild Bear, when they come to your house. I would recommend using WD-40 for locks, toilet seats and what not. If you are using a "lighter", just put the key in to the lock, do not turn, repeat long enough and try carefully. Or just buy a small "anti-ice spray" can/bottle with a detachable tiny "straw". I think you are ready for a visit to Finland!! Ps. The guy talking about Finland, Russel Howard, has a great comedy show here in Ytube and the "Granny" was just like "the Nan" by Catharine Tate.
Nursery workers in the UK are not on strike (tbf we don't seem to really have a union we can join so we can strike), we just have staff who can't get into work easily due to transportation workers on strike!
If someone brings cake into work that's discrimination against Coeliacs, meringues or snowballs (puffy marshmallows covered in coconut) however, damn right I have no self control!!!
Everybody's on strike because the cost of living crisis means they can't afford anything they need with their current pay. Of course, all non-government employees are also struggling but they don't strike. Economy isn't in a great state(as suggested by 'cost of living crisis')so the government can't afford to pay everyone what they want to be paid.
Nah bro, government fucked the country with a 40billion loss over the course of a week when Liz Truss was made PM. She let her chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng, have a meeting with hedge fund managers the day before his budget, that resulted in the country wiped over night. It was so bad, the the banks had to step in to protect pensions and she stepped down.
The government kinda can afford it. The useless test and trace system spaffed £32 billion up the wall, whilst the cost of raising nurses and NHS workers wages was calculated to cost under £10 billion. The government simply doesn't *want* to invest in it without getting something for themselves out of it.
@@1215298 Yes, they could afford it if it's budgeted and managed. However, when it's done via hedge fund managers and the financial world sector steps back and basically says fuck no, we're not investing anywhere near that scam anymore... as we saw, the pound falls to rock bottom and suddenly the cost of living goes through the roof, the banks have to step in to protect pensions etc because our money doesn't buy the same anymore. The market isn't stable anymore, interest rates are sky high, the government now has no room to budget or nor the ability borrow to fix problems. It's had real world implications when they played fuckery with the stock market using the state funds - more so when they're a new leader of a country, such as the UK, who have a vested interest in the financial market.

I've always thought the goggle box guy (Pete) was your doppleganger. (That's the one on the phone saying bye.)
I always thought he was a gay pixie.
Dont blame you stay warm
postie here, strikes are happening due to many things, but mainly the lack of pay rise in comparison to the recent inflation
Don't you usually just make up the difference by stealing money from birthday cards?
@@imperialdebauchery5988 lmao, no haha, no one does that

JT Strikes because no cake or tea at work 😆
For the revolution..
Now remember, don't bring a cake in to share at work cos we don't want anyone to have that feel good factor or improvement to team rapport!!
no one is being paid fairly and the uk is ono strike i for one support our men and woman protesting for better pay. the government needs to step up.
@MIDDO Where's the proof of deaths caused by the strikes?
biggest difference is its your choice if you eat the cake or not, its not your choice if you breathe in second hand smoke
I love your videos ❤😂
You think that’s cold one night the flame on my lighter froze
It's the winter of discontent. Lots of industries are on strike over pay and conditions due to inflation and increase in cost of living.
Cheese and rice?
Fish and chips!
I lost count of the times i have unwillingly breathed in someone else's cake
Yeah, the number of times I’ve had endure ‘passive cake consumption’😂😂😂.
It's hard to kick the cake habit when someone else passes the frosted fancies around

Even doctors bring cakes into work lol

If Doctor Who wants to say the damn Welsh city name you damn well know sure hes gonna say it with style.
Bro in alleyway morphed into parrot ARE YE GOING TO DIE?.. WHO'S A PRETTY BOY THEN!
We’re on strike because most public sector workers have had real terms pay cuts over the past 10 years, so we’re all skint, over worked and pissed off.
Most of these will be people who’ve been in the union for years.
Ready to watch another American react to another English video 😂
Everyone in the UK is on strike because of underpay, strikes start tomorrow (1st February)
