    typical Labour response to any argument, abuse, riot, ignore the facts, you are so typical its not true - you abuse the disabled then you come on here trying to preach decency and principles - presumably you don't want to pay for your ill health in old age, you just want someone else to pay for it no doubt - a Labour freebee - some rich bastard will pay for you - get to ****

    It's called playing the system.

    It happens in all walks of life.

    Well, you joined a public institution that provides food, accommodation, equipment etc. all at the expense of the taxpayer. Defence spending has consistently been higher than spending on higher education, for example, so if you don't want to pay for someone else's kids I'm not sure why you'd expect the taxpayer to pay for your lifestyle choice in joining the military.

    Alcoholic homeless people, what a revelation that is...

    To get a food parcel in Hull you need a voucher btw

    Personally I think it's a matter of national shame that we've got so many people relying on charity to put food on the table.

    Figures on the proportion of people going hungry are published in the Social Indicators 2014 report by the OECD, after surveys were carried out by pollsters Gallup in all 34 member countries.

    The UK total of 8.1 per cent is far less than the EU average of 11.5 per cent, an increase from 9.5 per cent before the economic crisis, and the OECD average of 13.2 per cent, which rose from 11.2 per cent.

    In fact, the UK came 24th out of 34 – far behind our near neighbour France on 10 per cent.

    Countries hit by the eurozone crisis fared badly, with Ireland on 9 per cent, Spain on 12 per cent, Italy on 13 per cent and Greece on 17 per cent. The highest need in Europe was in Hungary, where 31 per cent went hungry.

    Canada, New Zealand and the United States – which came sixth on 22 per cent – all ranked far worse than Britain.

    Only ten countries are lower in the table than the UK, including Germany, Japan and the Nordic and Benelux countries. Bottom of the table was Switzerland on 4 per cent.

    And what have you done to help those unfortunate people who can't put food on their table?

    I think he is naive.
    People in all walks of life abuse systems for there benefit and Tobes has obviously never lived on a council estate.

    Age discrimination was outlawed in 2007.

    Abuse?

    You're a hypocrite.

    You mentioned low IQs & *****s.

    You moan & complain about the legitimate word "mong" being used as demeaning yet openly rake the piss out of people with speech impediments.

    Your self superior view of yourself means nothing to others who all see you as the petty, insignificant, ignorant & hypocritical mong that you are.

    We're the 5th wealthiest nation on the planet and the numbers of people in this country who live in either food or fuel poverty (or both) should be a matter of National shame.
