TikTok has unlocked a new side to social media, a side that almost eradicates the fourth wall between viewers and the creators themselves.

Dating in the last two decades has taken a turn for the worse, we’ve gone from making each other playlists and falling in love to social media likes and never-ending talking stages.

Since January 2023, 92% of UK households have reported that their cost of living has increased when compared to the previous year.

The Tories' hatred for the public sector and its services has been evident since the David Cameron coalition government, over a decade ago. But in recent years it has become more damaging and evident than ever, as the Tories make it their hidden agenda to run public services into the ground.

The United Kingdom has for decades been placed on a pedestal and portrayed as the land of opportunity. With thousands of people flooding the cities looking for their career break, unfortunately for many, that moment won’t come.

In the last 12 years, we have seen 5 Conservative Prime Ministers and countless government disasters. Let’s rewind to 2010, David Cameron is in power, Brexit is about to go from being a mere conversation between right-wing politicians to a household issue, and public services are about to undergo severe cuts.

All relationships regardless of their nature can be toxic, while some experience just a wave of toxicity, others are rooted within toxicity.

With Liz Truss as the new prime minister, many have been left questioning where her time in power will lead us. Will she continue the trend of u-turns created by Johnson or will she exacerbate his path of destruction?

Boris Johnson finally made the first good decision in his career as Prime Minister last month, when he chose to resign. Although it wasn’t easy, it took many government scandals, copious levels of backlash, and his overall inability to do the job.

The world we live in, or society should I say, has been designed to spew hatred towards women. This hate hides in many different forms from workplace sexism to rape. But more recently society’s longing desire to diminish women and control them has come in the shape of a near-total ban on abortion in the United States.

Ever since migrating to the UK from Poland, I have heard the phrase ‘Go back to your own country,’ I can date the first incident back to when I was just 8 and could bare speak English. This phrase is one that haunts the immigrant community within the UK and is often dished out unprovoked.

The UK government is well known for its continuous corruption, from the dark legacy of Margaret Thatcher to the sugarcoated war crimes of Tony Blair. And these are just some of the wrongdoings committed by previous Prime Ministers, never mind MPs.

Thursday the 24th of February marked the day that Russia invaded Ukraine, as well as the day the UK government’s damaging selective support was exposed.

We’re all familiar with the phrase ‘the poor get poor, while the rich get richer’, but what many of us fail to acknowledge is this is much more than a phrase. This is the reality of life for not just underdeveloped countries, as most would wrongly assume, but essentially any country with a centralised government.

Advice can quite often come across as condescending, patronising or even diminishing. Advice has become just something we feel obliged to provide when people are in distress, not an act of kindness but almost a duty. What makes matters worse is generally people listen just to respond, they don’t listen to fully understand the problems at hand.

Priti Patel, a second-generation immigrant who has some serious identity issues. Under laws introduced by Priti Patel, her own parents' ability to stay in the country would be put in jeopardy.

Society has constructed many unrealistic expectations. Whether it’s the new beauty standard or the strictly masculine role men are supposed to conform to, these beliefs often breed toxic outcomes.

For decades men have treated women like their inferior, with a lack of basic human respect in many cases. But in recent years largely due to social media, more attacks on women at the hands of men have come to light.

Democracy in the UK has for years now been undermined by our mainstream media, who time and time again fail to hold power to account. But more recently, our democracy and freedom have been put under serious threat by the proposed Police, Crime, Sentencing & Courts Bill and Official Secrets Act, not to mention the Online Safety Bill.

The UK has a demented love-hate relationship with knife crime. It’s an epidemic eradicating our youth, yet as a society, we do little to nothing to tackle the true root of the problem, a lack of support for the working-class community.
