Agree if it's been done honestly. Unfortunately for most it's been done through Government favours and old pals acts which is abhorrent.

Not arguing with that at all ?

LOL. 

They've really done a number on you. Sad to see ordinary folk brainwashed in to such anti-worker sentiment. 

Need to explain that one Parkie?

Only thing I take from this is that you are against anyone doing well for themselves and becoming successful and rich as a result - nothing wrong with that as long as its all above board surely.

[Guest Grays Babylon 1875]

If we fed the middle class and rich to the poor it would all be ok.  No more food banks.

Barbeque the cunts in FFS leafy, luscious, garden.

Hang the slices of meat with pegs on the washing line and leave the pegs there after to piss off Hyacinth and that.

Correct me if I'm mistaken here but is "relative" poverty just a percentage of the average wage? Makes it impossible to eradicate then surely?

Not quite. It's a certain threshold below the median wage (60% maybe?). So it could be eradicated if everyone was close to the same income. But as I said, that can happen by the rich getting poorer, with no improvement for the poor.

Problem is the Conservative party have systematically suppressed public wages, introduced higher taxes for the working people, and pointedly refused to address the wealth inequality in the country. They've even aided and abetted it. 
 

Mr.Lynch is being vilified by the pieces of filth you vote for, because he has the temerity do demand for his union, a respectable set of conditions and pay. 
 

 

 

Being an snp man, what are your thoughts on the wage offers they've made to the public sector this year? (And no I'm not a tory).

[Guest Grays Babylon 1875]

Slugs.   

Like putting a band aid on àn axe wound.  

? And it closes the so-called "boyfriend loophole" by blocking gun sales to those convicted of abusing unmarried intimate partners.?

Weird fat fucks.

If Consi sold all his cocaine back to Peru we could clear the national debt and buy every poor bastard their very own chip shop.

Food banks are a shame on the govt (both Westminster and Hollywood) and no way should they have to exist.

If someone has become a millionaire or billionaire be it a result of the pandemic or otherwise then what? Good for them for being successful in whatever field they work in and most likely creating employment, paying taxes etc. along the way. Not every millionaire or billionaire is a cunt despite what you think.if you do then that's just sounds like jealously to me (again).

If you are referring to dodgy PPE contracts and the like then no issues with throwing them in jail - MP's included - and taking back the cash.

Do you have to accept it, well the question is what are you going to do about it?

Why is it jealousy to suggest that at a time of unprecedented economic turmoil, its unethical that there are a subset of people picking the bones off the carcass of the economy, and are actually profiting from the misfortune of others? 
 

Im not saying "oh for fuck sake these millionaires and billionaires have an indoor pool- indoor pool for everyone!" 
 

Im saying these people often have more money than one could feasibly spend, whilst many people are struggling to make ends meet. The economy is top heavy at the moment, that's not a good thing for generating wealth. We saw during the pandemic, the economy crashed whilst people took pay cuts, lost jobs etc, as people weren't generating wealth by buying shit. Yet, you still had a transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich? How is that?

Maybe in a criminal court but in a civil court, on the balance of probability, the judge would find you a coke fiend.

I would argue that you have always had people getting rich on the back of others, primarily from the poor, but not necessarily in an unscrupulous way - just providing products and services people buy and want. Takes the likes of Steven Bartlett from Social Chain who has become a multimillionaire through starting a company (arguably at just the right time) building it up then selling it. Has he done this by profiting from the misfortune of others? Should he be penalised for doing what he done?

What's your solution to your points above then?

Short term- skim off the top and redistribute to the bottom. 
 

Long term- remove their heads from their torso. 

Edit; 

 

Does one just start a company and have it make billions without any internal input? 
 

They don't have workers they underpay, or don't pay, living wages? They don't utilise slave labour in other countries? 
 

The guy with the idea doesn't generate the wealth, the workers do.

Alternatively they could start taxing the corporate giants properly and ensure that the UK tax department and politicians are not in the pocket of big business.

This documentary shows that the tax office are advising large corporations on how to avoid paying tax, then get a job later on in their career.

Sorting out this kind of shit would be a good start.

That comes into my suggestion. 
 

The government ultimately, doesn't represent the best interests of the majority of people in the country. 
 

I must be jealous to say that.
