Re: Skint. Channel 4

I watched it with a certain level of dismay, disbelief & resignation. At the very least its sensationalist viewing, exhibiting the worst aspects of those unfortunate enough to be in this position, but there are other people in a similar situation, doing the best they can & quietly plodding along & not submitting to the worst excesses forced upon them.

In particular that foul mouthed little noblet abusing his mother, proper little buck, or so he thinks & it's encouraged by the cameras being there. The girl stealing & selling herself to support her habit & the young mothers who just shrug their shoulders & accept it all, how utterly depressing & sordid the Country has become. And for all the talk about foreigners being the root cause of UK's problems how many were present & performing in that little episode?

Complete disillusionment with the UK & its scions.
