    After all you said on respecting women what a hypocrite!
    Well, I for one wouldn’t, not even if she was on fire.
    Dreadful woman.

    If the letter originates from PNG - I would say that it is typical Australian black humour. They don't go short of food in PNG - because they still have cannibals! I would say that the letter is tongue in cheek when talking about poverty, PNG has far more problems than the UK due to heavy government corruption.

    Compared to the UK and those who think they are living in poverty:
    Facts About Hunger in Papua New Guinea


    1. Nearly 50% of children in Papua New Guinea are malnourished. As of 2018, almost half of the children in Papua New Guinea suffered from chronic malnutrition. This is much higher than the global average and causes a large percentage of hospital deaths for children under five. Malnutrition can have lasting effects on children, leading to health complications in their adult life.
    2. Data gathered on food insecurity in Papua New Guinea is scarce. Collecting data on the nourishment of those in Papua New Guinea is difficult, and limited data leads not only to limited reporting but also to limited decision making. Despite knowing that many families living in rural, low-income communities are food insecure, it is difficult for the government to create effective policy changes without accurate statistics.
    3. Volatile weather causes droughts and increases food insecurity. Papua New Guinea faces unpredictable climate catastrophes, including active volcanos and inconsistent rainfall. Since 2015, Papua New Guinea has been affected by the climate phenomenon El Niño, which caused a disruption in weather patterns and a drastic decrease in rainfall in the region. Reduced rainfall led to issues producing crops and livestock and resulted in a severe drought in the region. Food availability was already low in many regions and the drought led to even more hunger in Papua New Guinea. In addition to contributing to food insecurity, the reduced rainfall also led to decreased access to clean water. As a result, many families turned to alternative water sources that present further health issues, such as dysentery and typhoid.
    4. Papua New Guinea is committed to achieving a zero-hunger world by 2030. In 2018, the Minister for Agriculture and Livestock in Papua New Guinea, Hon Benny Allen, committed himself and his country to achieving food security for all of Papua New Guinea. Allen created a strategy that includes placing agricultural issues at the forefront of the country’s focus. He promised to make the people the focus of these initiatives by creating sustainable food systems and improved climate disaster preparedness.
    5. Papua New Guinea created a National Food Security Policy. The National Food Security Policy 2018-2027 outlines a concrete plan to address food insecurity in the nation. The policy states that food security is a basic human right and lays out five priority strategic action areas. These strategic areas include increased productivity and efficiency in food staple production, stability in supply systems, enhanced nutrient content in foods for consumption by vulnerable households, female empowerment in agriculture, and strengthened governing, coordination, monitoring and communication.

    What?

    Someone has been advocating "peeing on a female"?

    I'm shocked and livid. Who would do such a thing?

    Show me evidence of such deviance and I'll sort them out...

    You see, putting the FWs on your ignore list isn't entirely a win.

    Sometimes you miss the real classic posts until some kind person (Toodles) quotes them.


    Many, many thanks...

    22,000 less rent = 16,000, less bills = 14,000 for food and clothing.
    And they cannot manage? A pensioner receives about £8,400 per year and has to pay for medical necessities as well.

    Poverty is comparative. Compare poverty in the UK with say poverty in Africa - they are not the same. UK poverty means having nowhere to live, having no money at all - that does not happen, anyone in that situation with children are soon housed. African children - tough!

    What do you mean by 'Poverty'?
    Where do you find this level of benefit freely available? is it from the Tory handbook on "How to demonise the poor" I did a pseudo benefit check and can assure you that "my entitlement" didn't come close.

    I think we all know that there are those who abuse and fiddle the system, but they are a minority and are certainly less prolific and costly than tax dodgers, wasted government contracts, all those instant companies which claimed every covid benefit going, then just as quickly vanish.

    Your concept as to what qualifies as a meal is grim to say the least and just remember there are people out there who don't have the equipment needed to cook a meal, some don't even have a cooker, even then the best cooker in the world is useless when the meters are empty.

    If any of these politicians AND supporters put their money where their mouth is I'll listen, until then, please crawl back under whichever rock you call home.

    Yes, you can make a meal for 30p. Baked Potato with a topping, for instance, mash, veg and cheese, etc., But more common is around 60p per head meat and two veg.

    Against a take away Pizza = £5. Fish and chips = £7. Ready Made Meals £3.
    Just because you agree with an obnoxious, arrogant piece of detritus, does not a majority make, sure put this garbage on the "right" site and you will get a majority response, only because most decent fair minded people don't even look at the trash.

    Have you ever been without money, food or shelter?

    In 1984 I was working on an outdoor project, mainly young people. We had a very small marquee tent where we could prepare and eat food and take shelter.
    We took it in turns to prepare the midday meal for everyone. it came to my turn and I was told the rules: here's 50p per person, the meal must be of two courses, it must be nutritious with a decent calorie content (we were doing hard physical work), it must be tasty and quick and easy to prepare (we had a camping gas stove but it was to boil a kettle), there must be at least two choices (so tuna salad bap versus cheese and tomato wrap for instance), it must be different to what we had yesterday. It wasn't possible to store food there because of mice, rats, flies, etc.
    We were on one of our offshore islands so no supermarkets and all prices higher than normal because of shipping costs. Catering for about 20 people I came back with a few pence change out of my £10 note.
    It was a challenge then (without the cost of heating things)...I should think impossible now.

    Most of the people in poverty aren't without money or shelter. They include working people. The money just doesn't stretch, whether wages or benefits.

    We aren't talking about homeless beggars, though I'm sure they do use foodbanks, but I imagine a soup kitchen would be more helpful.

    I can't imagine you've been without food, money or shelter either. How is that relevant?

    Or are you suggesting that poor people should eat dead rats if necessary? The fact that working people need benefits at all is a complete failure of this or any other country. That they need foodbanks is utterly appalling.

    I think "poverty" is easier to deal with on a transient basis most could rumble on for some time just with what they have and benefits even though some are laughably low.

    Its those who haven't got a cushion through either low incomes or spending too much who suffer quickly.

    Thankfully there are some jobs available for those who can to help.

    If we had stayed in the EU there would be lower wages and many more people than jobs.

    We have been lucky it could be so much worse.
