Reported on the news, some kids don't have shoes and a hot meal at least once a day, they would if their parents would stay out of the boozers.

How much do shoes cost in Primark? This is an issue of poor money management skills on the part of their parents. Probably fagging it, eating junk food and boozing it up every night, while their kids are neglected.

thats the trouble in this country we bought cheap foreign stuff putting our own workers out of jobs. now people have to survive on benefits and be belittled by the ones who have jobs. while the real culprits are getting more wealthier while watching us fight for the scraps.

The shoes that are made here tend to be expensive.

You may wish to know that the Save the Children charity are hoping to raise money to lift low paid working families out of poverty in this country and try to lessen the worst effects of the economic climate.

There again, you might just want to rely on prejudice. It's easier.

What Regatta said about the parents is true, at least for one example that I know of.

 

One "mother" not far from me was heard complaining that she'd not got enough to feed her kids and that they were living on beans on toast. In the same conversation she was heard asking her eldest to 'fetch her another can (of beer) and her cigs"
