Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

I agree 100% with you on child benefit should only go to the first 2 children as it used to be, in fact I think it was only the first at one time.
BUT your still not looking at the total facts, you are firing off from the hip and obviously havent researched these food banks yet alone go along to one or recommend someone to them.
Ive made several visits in my capacity as a volunteer for a national online charity body and the typical people you get turning up have been refered, are a working family (a lot are 2 car familys) and have over stretched themselves whilst the good times were going on.
Yes sometimes they are on tax credits, low pay etc etc, but to give the impression like yourself that they are street low life winos and living on the street is just so totaly wide of the mark its laughable.
I urge you to go along and check your nearest one out.
I think then that you will find you have made a massive error of judgement.

The poorest, stupidest and working class are the fatest, the most drunk and smoking themselves to death. They probably need the foodbanks so that they can drink and smoke more. Don't forget the betting shop and bingo.
You sure you not getting confused with rich , never worked , obese , alcoholic , cigar smoking idiots who need poor people to sustain their way of living ?

People in Wales are "extremely satisfied" with schools and the NHS but remain worried about finances, an official survey has suggested.
The National Survey questioned more than 14,000 people in the Welsh government study.
Of those questioned, 90% said they were satisfied with NHS hospital care, while 92% of parents were happy with their child's primary school.

I used to work for a wine company and my mother's family used to own Threshers years ago, hence the interest in wine.

Like to know who the 14,000 surveyed are. All I hear is people really p.... off with the education system, falling way behind the whole of Europe. The bilingual system holds so many kids back.

It is impossible to assess the quality of education in the whole country based on survey of a group of people.
Statistics can be played with very easily, just choose the group that most likely give the answer you like. You have whatever you need to generate beautiful results justifying your aim.
Even our universities are pushed to tick boxes to receive money, so the data is played with so the maximum number of boxes are ticked! Does it mean that they are as great as their statistic show?
