'The poor are doing better than ever' is a remarkable thing to think. Astounding. Who do you know agrees with you?

When have they done better? And please provide statistical proof.

When have we ever had food banks and so many loan shops in low socio economic areas because I've not seen or heard of so many ever before.

One thing that doesn't help is the availability of credit to start personal debt spiralling but that keeps people in low paid jobs turning up.

Who actually agrees with your opinion?

I'm sure I heard Farage say on Andrew Marr that grammar schools were succeeding with social mobility. Maybe if you're already able to move to the grammar school area and/or hire the private tutor because junior schools don't teach and train on the entrance questions.

Crap.

We have never been better off and that is due wealth and innovation created by people who did something rather than just complain about everything.
There would be no 'social justice' without society and there would be no society without commerce.

The bollocks I hear these days about poverty makes me sick and the idea that Jeremy Corbyn is the answer to whatever the question is supposed to be is laughable.

Only the totally stupid or completely naive believe in a socialist utopia. We are living in the best time there has ever been in Britain for equality. People need to enjoy it and stop whining.

1. Complete bollocks. A debt-based society proves it.

Statistical proof please, not selective anecdote and waffle.

A debt based society allows people buy things that they couldn't before. If they borrow more than they can afford, who's fault is that?

All but a tiny percentage of people have no concept of real poverty these days in Britain.
Sadly, many of them have no concept of how to manage money or prioritise spending either.

Do you understand what you've just written?
A society BASED UPON DEBT is far different from one where credit is available, but not RELIED upon.

Credit is debt. Relying on credit is impossible. You have to pay it back.
Do you understand reality?

I do Rudi
Watch the figures about poverty ( as and when you provide them) rise.
This will be due to people being EXPECTED to be responsible for paying their own rent.
When a pack of fags and a slab of Stella is more important who's fault will that be.
I suppose when you look at cause and effect loads of poverty can only be self inflicted.
A small amount of people in poverty are due to someone else other than themselves.
Ask people who you know in poverty how they deal with spending and prioritising.
Then you will see I'm right.

Never mind about opinions.

You can't come up with comparative facts to support your assertion.
