Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s claim that he is protecting Brits from having to separate rubbish into “seven different bins” has become an instant meme. Sunak’s claim comes after the PM gave a speech in which he essentially reversed several policies related to the environment in the run-up to the general election in 2024. In it, he claimed the policies originally set out for Britain to be on the path to achieving net zero would hurt hard-working families. After the speech, Sunak posted a graphic on X/Twitter listing the “heavy-handed measures” which included, “Sorting your rubbish into seven different bins” and “taxes on eating meat”. He wrote: “We will never impose unnecessary and heavy-handed measures on you, the British people. “We will still meet our international commitments and hit Net Zero by 2050.” But it was pretty quickly pointed out that many of the listed measures don’t actually exist, as people mocked the PM for his bizarre bin claim using the hashtag #SevenDeadlyBins. Broadcaster James O’Brien mocked: “It’s a start, I suppose, but I won’t be happy until he’s also banned elbow grease, tartan paint and glass hammers.” Another joked: “Next up on Rishi Sunak’s list: “- Santa made to have a pilot’s licence - Monsters under your bed deported to Rwanda - Unicorns limited in horn length - Tooth fairy income will be taxed - Number limits on invisible friends kids can have.” Journalist Gaby Hinsliff argued: “In the old days seven Mirror reporters would have been made to dress up as bins & follow the PM around asking what he had against them & I regret that Fleet Street no longer has the resources for this frankly.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.

Taylor Swift fans have told billionaire Musk exactly where to go after the X/Twitter CEO told her what to do with her music. In a social media post, the global superstar singer revealed more information about her upcoming album and finally gave fans the answers to the names of the tracks that will be appearing on it. The new album, titled 1989 (Taylor’s Version), is a re-record of her fifth studio album, which will also feature five unheard “vault” songs that will be completely new to her listeners. After having fans on a wild goose chase all day, she revealed: “It’s a new soundtrack. Here are the back covers and vault track titles for 1989 (my version) I can’t wait for this one to be out, seriously. “Thank you for playing along, sleuthing, puzzling and making these reveals so much chaotic fun (which is the best kind of fun, after all).” In the replies, Musk gave Swift some unsolicited advice that appears to have rubbed the Swifties up the wrong way. He wrote: “I recommend posting some music or concert videos directly on the X platform.” One fan told Musk exactly what they thought of that, writing: “GET A JOB STAY AWAY FROM HER FRE*K.” Another person mocked: “Great point. If she posted some videos of her singing she could become a millionaire in no time from the ad revenue.” “No one asked, babe,” said someone else. One Swiftie argued: “She's so powerful she has a literal billionaire looking for clout from her.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
