    How pathetic is it?

    Britain is a third world country.

    Shocking state of affairs.

    Let's look after our own before we look elsewhere.

    Do they have a savers account? Give 10 cans of hot dogs and in six months you'll get a nice helping of blood sausage.

    Let's do both. After all, this is one of the richest countries in the world.

    See planet earth? This is the good bit.

    I cringe when people say "this is one of the richest countries in the world", as if the country owns you and what you produce, and can decide what it does with it.

    That's because, like Margaret Thatcher, you're incapable of grasping the concept of society.

    At its best, a nation state is a community, a collective enterprise where everyone contributes and everyone is provided for. Like Britain during and after WWII.

    We're one of the richest countries in the world, with one of the highest standards of living. Stop ****ing moaning that a few people that aren't you are receiving money because they ****ing need it to survive.

    The State allowed you to thrive and become the super-rich 'awesome' person that you are now. You wouldn't be in the same situation if you were born in Mogadishu. Be ****ing grateful for the chances you got and leave the poor ****s struggling to feed themselves alone <doh>

    Society sent Dev over to point guns at me while I was growing up, just in case I was one of those individuals who didn't want to be a member of that society. Society can go **** itself.

    <laugh> If England hadn't owned your country for a few centuries you'd have been the son of failed potato farmers, and they'd most likely have put you down at birth for having a wonky foot.

    That's your problem right there. You're anti social, and like most of life's angry outcasts, you choose to blame someone else for your plight.

    You should probably join a church or something. Or a mosque; a place where you're made to feel like you belong. See @thefanwithnoname for details.

    And then ruin it because you're full of hatred towards others (and insecure about being ginger and having tiny genitals)

    How do these food banks decide who gets help? I bet most of the people who go to them are not poor, just after something for nothing.

    You have to get a special recommendation from a GP/council person and you can only use it a few times.

    So no, you're wrong.

    Am I surprised?

    No.
