Bombshell poll shows number of Brits who believe Brexit has gone very well hits new low

That one third estimate seems very consistent for a lot polls I am seeing this year. I put it down to the audience who listen and accept the lies of GBnews, TalkTV and the multitude to far right paper media. My opinion is that a third of the country are living in an echo chamber of bullshit. They are convincing the turkeys to vote for Christmas. We need a Leveson enquiry 2.0.

Labour vows to ‘rewire Britain’ as pylon plans spark row in Tory party

Unless you are prepared to move HVDC the costs are immense for moving AC cabling under the sea. The reason we use pylons is be cause there is a massive energy drain if you place cables in the ground over long distances. This problem is near doubled in losses if you place the cables in water.

Can't MPs learn a little about search engines. We have kids getting smarter every generation because they have such good access to information, and yet some MPs are still stuck in the middle ages.

Other parents manage it in the same area

What a pathetic privileged attitude to have. Some people have no issues in life at all. Being born to the right parents should not be a metric for the benefits you receive in society. You really have no idea the problems some have to face.

I grew up in a deprived area. Both my parents were alcoholics. I grew up learning how to survive the hard way. But I got a lucky break early on. I have paid my way since I was 20 and retired on my own cash at 55. My kids have absolutely no idea what that sort of life entails. This idea that you can put people down because they lost out on the genetic lottery is incredibly insulting.

It is easy to throw a dishonest person into prison and ignore the issue. What a lot do not realise is that honesty comes with security. A lot of people cannot afford to be honest, because they are struggling just to live. To break this cycle, it takes commitment from government to educate and facilitate that move away from this. Something sadly lacking from today's government, and the people who support them.

As for your comments regrading UBI. I see you provide nothing to back that claim up. Let me help you.

Investing in society makes everyone richer. There are a huge amount of studies that prove this. Accepting that some people are just not worth the effort is a very small minded selfish attitude to have. Instead of believing the crap that the Tory media promote do some research.
