Councillors in deprived London borough vote to increase own pay by over £178,000 Shocking behaviour from Aspire in Tower Hamlets - I thought they'd have increased their own pay by a lot more than that! submitted by /u/afrophysicist to r/london [link]

What are common misconceptions people could benefit from understanding?

27 May 2026 @ 7:43 am

I just read an article about a woman who can’t afford to eat because her son’s medical equipment uses so much energy. And it mentioned too that she goes round turning the lights off. That broke my heart because the average lightbulb costs about £3 a *year* to run. No matter how bad things get please don’t make it worse by sitting in the dark. It seems a common misconception that lights use a lot more energy than they do. What other misconceptions do people possibly waste time and peace on? submitted by /u/Proper_Emu_2296 to r/AskUK [link]

Looking for consumer rights advice for England please! I recently tried to take advantage of Morrisons’ £15 off a £60 shop promo (still live on their website front page atm) When I got to the checkout, the code didn’t work. I phoned Morrisons customer service. After being put on hold while they checked my basket, I was told that the offer was actually for £70 baskets (this is not what it says in any of the promo or T&Cs for the offer.) But the customer service agent then said they’d resolved the issue by adding more items to my basket to make it £70, then adding the code. They said to check the extra items were no longer in my basket, which I did. Then they talked me through the checkout steps, which I carried out. When I got through checkout, the discount still wasn’t there. I was furious and asked for it to be escalated - I was offered 3000 “More points”, which I believe is equal to £3. 🤣 I r
