I have family that work in the NHS and they endorse that, as long as it is free to use who the bloody hell cares? My point was that because the railways are providing a poor service now, does not mean that you can wave a magic wand, nationalise it and assume that it will provide a better and cheaper service. The same goes for utilities, I don't want my power being at the hands of the unions, I don't particularly like rolling blackouts since my business that I run from home relies on it. Corbyn is promoting fantasist economics and policies and it won't wash with the British electorate. Who has said it's fantasist economics? Erm, quite a few people... Do you need a list? You have Google. There's plenty of anti-austerity economists on google too mate. Nobel prize winning ones even.

Have a read of this academic synopsis of a food poverty policy event Hoof. [Link] It's more than 100 words so I don't expect you will. For this reason here are the main findings. Reflecting on the state of the field, key findings drawn from the papers and discussions were that: Food insecurity is widespread, with concentrations in deprived areas; Food bank provision is increasing because of rising need; Food bank recipients are in desperate situations; There are different and distinct lived experiences throughout the life course; Choice-based discourses that shift blame from the state to individuals are inadequate for addressing the real barriers to food access that people face.

Hoof, I can't believe you really think that everyone using a foodbank is a scrounging doler who's blown their dole money on fags, booze and luxury goods. Surely not?! Also, where's the logic in your answer to Kermit8's comment about sweatshop workers? Edited by stan still (02 Oct 2015 11.02am)
