Pretty solid reason to vote Labour and Corbyn

Can you define that? Given the amount of taxpayers cash that goes into ensuring that doesn't happen.
If it's the 60% of average income as a marker for 'poverty' then I suggest we will never be rid of it.

Of course you won't. If the average weekly income goes up, more people will be below the poverty line.

40% median.

This thread shows why there is still extreme poverty in parts of UK. It looks like as long you are raking in a high day rate, you are alright, the rest can get fooked. Sad really. If the government tries to boost the status of the lower class through some reforms the well off are up in arms with indignation that their tax money is wasted on socialist policies.

Let me be the first here to say I don't give flying **** about others whatsoever. Most people are lazy, thick chunts, they reap what they can;t be bothered to sow.

Are you in the wrong job? Electricians 'have never earned more' as some make more than GBP70k a year | Daily Mail Online

Try booking an electrician. Wait 3 months and pay £300 per day.

And yet all the "poor" are sitting at home moaning about their lot.

Go to ******* college and learn a ******* trade!

What's Germany doing about getting rid of its food banks?

Privatising them...

Went well back in 1945 when the right wing press attacked Labour.

“It created the welfare state, including the NHS, rebuilt the ruined economy, nationalised a series of industries, whose record was a great deal better than it has been credited with, gave freedom to India, and played a vital role in the creation of Nato,”

Of course you won't. If the average weekly income goes up, more people will be below the poverty line.

Not if it goes up by incomes rising in equal proportion across the board.

To see @evoespueblo who, along with a powerful movement, has brought so much social progress forced from office by the military is appalling.

I condemn this coup against the Bolivian people and stand with them for democracy, social justice and independence. #ElMundoConEvo
