I am certainly no bleeding heart commie. I am in one of the most potentially high earning industries going, I went to public school, my other half is a successful entrepreneur, I strive to earn more and more money and quibble and negotiate to get myself as much pay as I possibly can. I just...

If you cannot afford to feed your family or even yourself I would say you are in poverty.

Nobody should have to live in poverty full stop but it should be unheard of in this country. While we have the likes of Maria Miller claiming £49,000 in false expenses from the public we should certainly not have the public being blamed for turning up at food banks. We shouldn't have a need for...

:dunce:

Of course these cases occurred under Labour. But they were the exception. The Conservatives are deliberately identifying these people and taking their benefits away rather than helping them. While they go chasing after physically and mentally incapable people so they can appear to be getting...

Well, if you decide to hand out free stuff on the basis of the school dinners register you will see that. Some kids eat school meals not because their folks don't have the money but because their parents don't have the wherewithal to scrape a healthy lunch together. Of course some scallywags...

Further to my last, you should do some research. It's a common misconception that lots of people have these things. Seriously, there are some families and individuals in the UK that are ridiculously poor. Some people that have not got the capacity to follow up calls, forms, pay bills etc. They...

You had your daft questions answered and now you're upset. It's an over reaction. An understandable one but an over reaction nonetheless.

I would say all of those should be frowned upon except maybe mobile phones and cars. My objection is for people who work hard, deserve to treat themselves and instead find themselves in a food bank queue because labour and Tory governments cannot stop stealing form the masses. Now you can move...

Grow up.

You could benefit from some of that education I mentioned eh! The problem with dinosaurs like yourself is you have to subscribe to a model presented to you by someone else. You don't think for yourself. Nowt wrong with people striving for a better life through a capitalist work ethic but you can...

If governments and corporations stopped avoiding tax, funding wars and taking far more than they are entitled to we could use that money to feed, clothe and educate every single human being on earth. Perhaps we could then not have to worry about who's earned the right to be able to eat and have...

All but arguably point 3 of that list are partially if not wholly political issues.

Of course the biggest problem is that MP's don't actually have to pay for the things that cost others so much: Petrol, power, rent/mortgage, travel, and food. This makes them unaware of how much of a dent this puts on income. Combine that with a few years of Blair with his snout in the trough...

You do have a massive chip on your shoulder though.

Nope, they were not. It's about time the Tory government stopped blaming Labour to cover up their **** ups. There is only so long you can keep saying "But Sir, a bigger boy did it and ran away".

More than a million have used UK food banks in the past year Yep, because the Tory government is systematically removing money from 97% of the population and placing it in the coffers of 3% of the population. I hope we all wake up to this deliberate theft and get shot of them before too long.
