    I suspect they would object to that more than the UK would.

    You're way behind the times, it is nothing to do with the diet, it is to do with poverty. 60 years of a Labour mafia and parts of Glasgow have a lower life expectancy than the Gaza strip.

    You seem pretty much on the Left - what would you do differently from the Labour mafia?

    Hes a dafty, I know. Anyone basing their vote on the opinions of someone from the other side of the world doesn't deserve the vote.

    Can't be that poor if they can afford to eat takeaways every day and drink and smoke themselves to death.

    What does Left mean in this context Mick, I would not describe New Labour as a party of the left for example. What I would do differently? Almost everything! Did you see the programme on BBC about Duke Street? The lady that fought to preserve the old tenements and refused to move to the tower blocks? I think it was in that programme. Anyway she acheived more than the council had done. The simplistic answer is that people have to be treated with respect and given a stake in their future, not treated as imbeciles and victims.

    Your description of me as on the left is too simplistic btw. These left right descriptions are out of date in the modern world.

    Unfortunately living your life in a Fiefdom makes that highly unlikely. I'm for an independent Scotland if only because there is a far better chance of getting rid of our unelected leaders in an Indpendent Scotland than there is in a United Kingdom, where the majority seem to be accepting of the fact that they will always be an underclass. Peons.

    Nah, I didn't see it - I don't watch much BBC. I'm just pointing out that I see a lot of 'things must change' without much of a plan of what you would do different (outside the obligatory 'chuck more money' at it response). I think the problem in a lot of these social estates is the culture - study after study has shown that kids are influenced a lot by their parents, but mostly by their peers. So when you have a load of lowly educated maniac people concentrated in the one place you are condemning a good percentage of their children to be maniacs. As an example, a teacher in a normal school might be able to deal with one or two unruly students, but when you have 10 of them in the one class in a social estate it condemns the rest of the kids in that class to a **** education. So aye, I think well intentioned social housing schemes have failed generations of people who have lived in them - and yet there are still calls on the Left for a return to the 1970's model of everyone living in social tower blocks that stink of pish.

    My solution would be basically Thatcherite - keep selling off the social estates and try spread as many socially-dependent families among the general populace as possible (with government subsidised rent). Little Jim Bob with a single alcoholic parent will have a much better chance in life if all his mates come from nice families (with only a moderate level of alcoholism like me!).

    Left and Right might be simplistic and outdated, but we've no better terms in common usage. Believe me I wish it was different, I can't be annoyed explaining every time that I'm a Liberal, but not an 'American Liberal', nor a Liberal Democrat, etc.

    Here Mick, any chance of posting a link to people/groups calling for a 1970s model of everyone living in tower blocks?

    It was a actually a 1950s policy but let's not split hairs.
