Bleeding scrounger. Bring back workhouses.
Seriously, what a relief that must be. What a disgrace that people are treated in this way. How we look after the disadvantaged in society defines what sort of society we are.
Up to a few years ago, I'd have probably defined myself as possibly a left-wing conservative or right wing liberal, as I generally believe in the free market but also that the market needs control and regulation. But I also believe that there are some things that the state should do or does better than the free market.
But the last 12 months have led to my total disgust with the insipid, vapid so-called leader we have and his uncaring and doctrinaire ministers who seem intent on destroying democracy and civil society.
Even when Thatcher was PM, I felt that we were taking one step backwards to take two steps forward. Under this lot we're just taking giant step after giant step backwards.
