It’s nothing at all like wearing a Swastika, but you do get the Godwin Award.

Maybe ‘Limey Losers’ To ensure a certain vociferous demographic within Trump’s supporters get the recognition they deserve.

‘Losers’?

Well of course, because it’s the argument you yourself make.

So there’s no poverty in the UK because people in some other parts of the world are poorer. That’ll be comfort to kids arriving British schools hungry, old folks who can’t afford to hear their homes, women who can’t afford tampons or sanitary towels during their period.

Brit bashing again.

The Joseph Roundtree Foundation is left wing? Age Concern is left Wing? Government are left wing? And of course if you can point to anyone anywhere in the planet that is suffering a worse level of poverty, you’ve found your argument do dismiss poverty in the UK. Now, what was it you were saying about nonsense?

I think ‘Absent Don’ would be a better tag. Has anyone seen him lately?

Had you been surveyed your response would be included in the data. As it is your accounts on here are merely anecdotal. The Government’s own data is backed up by that from the Joseph Roundtree Foundation, Age Concern, and numerous academic research papers. It all confirms the depressing reality of millions of people in the UK living in poverty. I do understand that ‘you’re all right Jack’, it’s a habit of yours to tell us.

Well, I did comment via the internet. But then, so did you.

I have absolutely no objection to ‘a recently surveyed parent’ commenting on my spelling or grammar. If it gives a ‘recently surveyed parent’ the occasional opportunity to be right about something.

But you and I both know. ‘a recently surveyed parent’ Ha! At least you were aware of his laughable that was, hence your edit. I do hope you don’t mind if henceforth I refer to you as the ‘recently surveyed parent’.

Nice edit!

Look at a map and find the closest borders to Moscow. Preferably a country not threatened by Russia and its habit of invading neighboring nations.

You might recall the noise over real user / bot counts in the run up to Musk using Saudi money to buy Twitter. Well here’s a thing. ‘Truth Social’ does not publish any verifiable data on user numbers whatsoever. So investors are left to believe a value that has no basis in reality. Once again MAGA are his marks.

More categorical statements. Let me help you out. Some old people live luxurious lives. Some old people go to the Caribbean for winter. Many do not: https://www.ft.com/content/b475a0e8-6829-461f-af70-170268d23580

You stated “Old people do not ride around on public transport just to keep warm ”. It would only take one ‘example’ of an old person riding around on public transport to prove your categorical statement false. I provided a news article that gave such an example. Perhaps, and it’s just a suggestion, rather than trying to wriggle out of the trap you set for yourself you could learn a bit more about poverty in the UK or at the very least refrain posting obviously incorrect assumptions on your part.

‘Hard Times?’

I thought you would have learned the lesson about making such categorical statements, or at least checked before hitting send: https://www.express.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/1604462/state-pension-free-bus-pass-boris-johnson-gmb-interview/amp

You are beginning to sound like one of the less likable characters from a Charles Dickens novel. There are a number of discounted travel options for young people.

Nope.

Why not indeed. Plenty do.

Like I said, you can find my comments in the awful news of Kate’s cancer diagnosis in the thread specifically opened to discuss that very topic. I believe I made that very clear. So jog on Jonny.

I wish I had pound for everything e I heard a Brit in Thailand say words to the effect of ‘You couldn’t pay me to live in the UK now’ Only slope off back home when they are I need if ‘nanny’.

Well you obviously didn’t die. That you as a child were not aware of people dying of cold is not proof that it never happened. I’ve provided a link to a news article giving a recent example. In incidentally, do you recall the price of coal and oil for your heating back then? Did the price shoot up like it did over the past couple of years? Or were they relatively stable in price and affordable?
