Hardly a hardship. Anyone think your savings would increase under Labour ?

The question was is anyone on here's life as bad as portrayed by Labour MP's. Not what might be, not what you see etc etc.............the point I'm making is I doubt that real abject poverty is not as commonplace as Labour would have you believe !

While I'm trying to get a rise, of course I feel sorry for the homeless especially ex forces and like most I would like to see help given to these people. A good start would be stopping foreign aid.

This afternoon in Herne Hill, 4 people in sleeping bags by the cash points at Tescos, Sainsbury and at the train station. Normally I would buy homeless people some food if I knew they were genuine but it is the same 'firm' that rotate their shifts, none of them are homeless.

Foreign Aid the biggest racket of the lot imo. main part of the reason I never give to those type of charities,took some stuff to the foodbank bin a couple of weeks ago but once again as with the homeless don't know how many actually are destitute to the point of prioritising survival only over the latest phone,drugs,booze etc.

I gave a beggar a fiver yesterday. He thanked me and said it made a nice change from getting the knickers off 1st time poster's wife.

I’m with Slippy on this one.
Not saying it’s not a big problem but have first hand experience of the beggar scam.
I was working in Chelmsford town center, and at 7.30 every morning the first beggar would turn up, and get in his sleeping bag.
He would leave at 11.30, and a pierced girl with a dog would take his place, and then others at 4 hr intervals.
I also did the odd evening shift, and the last one would always be gone by 9.00-9.30.
Not only that but a couple of guys would always turn up around 5.00, and take money from the same beggar.
Perhaps he was paying them for the best pitch?

I suspect the majority of people in real abject poverty aren't on the betfair forum tbh.

the sad thing about life is that 4 to 5 million quid worth of food is chucked into bins every day of the week.
how difficult would it be for the people who chuck the food away to think twice and leave it somewhere where the poor people can pick it up.
then the poor people might get a little help to get back on life's ladder again.
some mother in some city tonight may have sent her little children to bed tonight HUNGRY,and a packet of corn flakes could have helped ,but they are lying in some bin tonight,because they are close to their sell by date in 3 days time.Sad

I find that life is getting worse. I can't understand all of the gadgets on my new car. What is the Government going to do about it? I demand a free training course for all pensioners on new technology in all its forms.
