nice post hernando

understand perfectly

as is said only too often without success


DO NOT BE A NEGATIVE CRITIC, NOR GIVE ME PROBLEMS, ALL I WANT IS SOLUTIONS



Do you remember having chicken or turkey just once a year

Seeing kids asking for PENNY FOR THE GUY at busstops

i guess it might be called begging these days

lol

not in the jungle anyways

the wise people would think of ways to make it work if they so wished

Rather like drilling for water in acqifer regions and not for oil
but that will become reality when drilling for water either becomes a necessity and or more profitable than oil

Some sort of Brasilia type project? I'm not sure how well that would go down!

very true g2

give then incentives to stay and donate handsomely to the poorer end of the spectrum

any ideas

a super big project on the english scottish border

say a 100 billion sterling new wave eco city

lets try to counter balance the wealth centred in London and the South East

SHAME THE SUPER RICH ALIAS 1pc HAVE MORE MONEY THAN THEY NEED DESPITE HIGH TAXES

Its the other 4pc that get hit and perhaps unfairly hurt, but alas the rich get richer and the poor get poorer

It's factually wrong to say the poor get poorer, but that's just rhetoric so we can let it pass.

As to the rest, one of the points the article was making was that this increasing reliance on the top 5% was perilous, because they tend to be the most mobile.

If those from 2-5% are relatively mobile, the top 1% are totally, 100% mobile - if they are persecuted too ferociously they'll just leave, and no-one could blame them.

do you remember getting free milk at school

some kids got free meals

back then perhaps it was alcohol not drugs

or just insufficient work prospects after the war until they latched on to major projects and the multipler affect

Living standards, poverty and inequality in the UK: 2019

This report examines how living standards – most commonly measured by households’ incomes – have changed for different groups in the UK, and the consequences that these changes have for income inequality and for measures of deprivation and poverty. In this latest report, we focus in particular on those people who are poorest in society, with two of our three main chapters focusing on poverty.


SHAME THE SUPER RICH ALIAS 1pc HAVE MORE MONEY THAN THEY NEED DESPITE HIGH TAXES

Its the other 4pc that get hit and perhaps unfairly hurt, but alas the rich get richer and the poor get poorer

what will it eventually give us an Orwellian police state,revolution or a well planned war to wittle down unsavoury factions

Probably tax bills.

Half of all income tax paid by top five per cent



The percentage paid by the top 5% has been steadily increasing from 1980 and is now DOUBLE what it was then.

Of course, that won't be enough for our socialists, but what exactly do they want? What do they expect?

I thought he was a great performer, mm2. The kids were having fun and bothering nobody. You're getting old, m8, unlike 74 year-old Lupo di Mare here ;)

Child exploitation..





Glasgow students visit UN to spread the word on UK child poverty

Ten-year-olds join special rapporteur to present damning report to human rights council

Robert Booth in Geneva

Fri 28 Jun 2019 16.32 BST






It was not a typical class outing. Ben, Brooke, Advi and Charlie packed their school ties and made the 1,800-mile round trip from their primary school in Glasgow’s East End to the grand halls of the United Nations human rights council.

The 10-year-olds were in Geneva this week to chase up what the grownups were doing to tackle poverty in the UK. They had a date with Philip Alston – the UN special rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights who last November visited Avenue End school, which serves one of the poorest parts of Britain, as part of his investigation into the UK.

Children there had told him about hunger and the shame of poverty, about not being able to afford trainers, TV or food and about foodbanks. Alston kept them in mind when he drafted his damning report, which he presented on Friday to hundreds of diplomats from around the world. He told them the UK was facing “a national poverty crisis”.

Small world both called Antonio...I guess only Antonio need apply!...



CEO Antonio Horta-Osorio sold 374,554 shares at 56.6 pence each. Antonio Lorenzo, chief executive of Scottish Widows, sold 2.8 million shares at 57.23 pence each.

That is why most countries seek to enter such things rather than go in the opposite direction like we are in an attempt to create a spiders web of a mess.

Only the Little Englanders and their fantasies of victorian capitalism.
