[Margaret Pilkington]

No we are not the same at all. I see people who consider themselves poor, but they smoke, they drink, they have flash mobile phones which connect to the Internet.
Being poor is about having none of those things and nothing at all in the cupboard to eat.

The problem for a lot of today's poor people in this country is.....they consider it is their right to a foreign holiday...a wide screen TV, the latest techno devices.
They spend any money they have on stuff that is not essential to life.
They get into debt because of their deluded opinions that because everyone else seems to have these things, they should have them too.

And that you would not be proud enough to be ashamed of letting the town dispose of your corpse says a lot about you.
It seems to me that there is very little that shames today's populace.......well apart from the treatment of those who have no place in this country and would take from the resources which you already have decided are not suitable for purpose.
