'Petrified' single father breaks down over debts and bills

The cost of living crisis has led to more and more families across the country choosing whether to heat their homes or pay for food. According to Resolution Foundation’s predictions, the poorest quarter of households in Briton will see their real incomes drop by six percent by next year. However, new research from the Trussell Trust has found 40 percent of people claiming benefits are already skipping meals to survive. A Channel 4 documentary followed three Britons struggling to make ends meet,

TV tonight: voices from the sharp end of Britain’s cost of living crisis speak out

I’m a heavy user of social media, so a 3D virtual space where you can interact with other people – where artists are doing concerts and fashion houses are doing shows? That’s exciting to me!

But within the first 10 minutes of putting on a VR headset and entering a chat room, I saw underage ki

A new documentary about the Metaverse exposes the ‘online Wild West’ of racial & sexual abuse

Metaverse users face a disturbing amount of sexual and racial abuse on the platform, a new Channel 4 documentary, which aired last night claimed.

Since its naming last year, the metaverse – essentially, the online world accessed via virtual or augmented reality technology – has become an increasingly hot topic of conversation, both for the opportunities it brings (the first Metaverse Fashion Week took place in March this year) and for its risks – for instance, the misogyny reported by female us
