  1. In the UK the left are always banging on about income inequailty but especially child poverty and whilst nobel I simply cannot take it seriously anymore. I grew up dire poor in Middlesbrough which was once one of the very worst places to grow up in the UK. I've experianced everything from a family member being kidnapped by a local mentally challenged hard knock who just wanted a firend but did not know how to. And let me tell you that that was messed up, a gang of lads went to rescue my family member finding him tied to a chair in a dirty squalid house with no parents and this hard knock burst into tears about how he just wanted to have someone to play with...the rescue squad was tooled as well with bats and the like. Went in there ready for blood and left feeling sorry for the hard knock. Anyway. I've also had the Xmas prezzis stolen from under the xmas tree on Christmas eve no less. Left my long suffering single mam of 3 an emotional wreck for months and nervous around Xmas for decades afterwards. Then there was the time I noticed my mam was pretty much starving herself so her kids could eat, then there was the handmedowns, the knock off labels that gets a kid bullied on the school playground, never being able to go to paid school events, do after school shit. Etc etc. Now my point here is not oh woe is me I'm so hard done by more I refuse to accept a classification of poverty that includes lack of fucking broadband, satalite TV, horte cusine of the finest standard, ALLLLL the extra curriculum activities, parents that have habits with higher priority than providing for their children. Fuck that noise. Even the borderline abject poverty I experianced growing up was a better liviing standard than kings and queens of but a 100 years ago. To me the modern leftist deinitions of poverty are themselves a 1st world privilege (not that regressive shite, actual you dont know how good you good it type shit) and proponents of it smack of not having experianced anykind of true hardship in life. Or just going with the flow I suppose.
