”Children living in ‘Dickensian’ poverty, commissioner warns”
What commissioner? The Children’s Commissioner. And what does this person do apart from spread horseshit? Fuckall I wager.
This was based on 128 kids across the country. Not randomly selected, no, otherwise it would be about smart phone excesses and obesity.. The kids of the lowest, feral chav parents/parent have been chosen. And we should all pay, natch.
Apparently poverty is the cause of unwashed, hungry kids. Not the parents. Poverty.
So we should all pay up so Kyle and Beyonce can have the latest smart phone and unlimited takeaways. And perhaps a wash and toilet training.
You know it makes sense.
Nominated by Cuntstable Cuntbubble.
Sounds like a steaming pile of Uriah Heep to me..
Though the children’s commissioner does bare a resemblance to Abel Magwitch..
Does this poverty stretch to only two games consoles and sky movies.

There’s tattoo poverty too.
Little Courtney can’t afford to have his MS-13 sleeve finished off because Mum spent all her child allowance on lip fillers.

There will always be child poverty due to incompetent parents putting themselves first to pay for drugs, when it was just for drink and fags in my day after the war ended. I saw it with my own eyes, neighbour’s across the street locking their children in the bedroom whilst they went off to the pub or picture houses. I benefited from it with a cabaret show sitting on my doorstep from my friends, which was more or less burlesque. I would see them the the next day at school, congratulating them on a good performance. Glad my parents weren’t like that.

I used to see mothers collecting the weekly Family Allowance from the Post Office while dad waited outside. Forerunner of Child Benefit, it was supposed to help pay for their kids’ upbringing.
Mum would then come out and split the money with the Dad – he’d go to the pub or club with his half while she went to the Bingo.
17
That’s right, Geordie and it would take years before the government cottoned on to put the untouched benefit money straight to the rent office.

Bring back the Workhouse.
That’ll stop the feckless fuckers breeding like rabbits.
22
Quite right, Geordie, old son.
Also, the kids would make ideal chimney sweeps like in the good old days.
And the darker-hued variety would not need to worry about the soot.

Horseshit? We couldn’t afford it.
We made do with dogshit.
And were thankful for it.
Cant tell me owt about poverty.
I grew up on the, “most deoressed place in the UK”
Brinnington a council estate in stockport.
When not laid up with rickets or scurvy,
Wed sit and watch Live Aids in envy,
Imagining a popstar came and gave US filling rice and yummy maize.
The fat bastard Ethiopians filling their faces.
For my 8th birthday i got half a Brck wrapped in newspaper(the Guardian)
I was envy of the school.
Till my dad pawned it for bread.
Poverty? Its good for you.
If you haven’t strangled a seagull fighting over a chip by the age of 9 then your a spoilt little bastard.
20
Dogshit? You lucky, posh bastard. We made do with cat shit in Cwmscwt and were grateful for it.
15
Know how you can tell if someone grew up poor?
Bad teeth.
Teeth like a fuckin pirate.
Or no teeth.
False teeth by your early 20s.
Go somewhere rough,
Check out the teeth.
Dentists nightmare.
Fuck em.
Eat the poor
16
Eat the poor..
No thanks, I imagine they taste of ciggies, chicken dippers and blue drink..
17
That’s true, Mis. I thought the dentist was only there for yanking out the teeth. Maybe it was due to me licking ice cream from the dirty pavements after some other kid had dropped it.

Hahaha😅
Pavement ice cream is my favourite flavour too Sammy.

I often get to meet the poor when a charity are paying for their removal costs.
Cant help thinking if they didnt spend on cannabis, nike trainers, cigarettes and computer games they might have more food in the cupboard?
And no matter how poor,
They always have a 80inch tv.
No carpets like,
Room not decorated but always a massive telly.
And they boast about it!!!
” those soundbars are great, and its High definition, you should get one mate”
MNC ” cant afford it pal, i work for a living”

Yes, the silly cunts would be duped into buying the enormous screen set, sat in a small room, fucking up their eyes. More benefits paid for the opticians.

All my sympathy is with the children in poverty. It’s not their fault and they are not able to change it. The way many children are treated in this country is appalling. We chose to have children and they are our responsibility above everything else. They owe us nothing. Whatever we do for them can never be excessive.
16
I went to school in the 60’s with smelly kids who had number 11s on their top lip.
They were poor but they weren’t starving.
And most got on and became baby boomers.
Want want fucking want now the cunts.
15
Oh, the candlesticks.

Childhood poverty 128 children surveyed fuck me. Every kid I knew who was “living in poverty” their reason for having fuck all was their useless parents. Kelvins dad for example, how many times did I rescue him from the pub car park literally drag him up the road and sit him on the low wall opposite my parents house so he could sober up in relative safety. I was 12 when my mission began. Jimmys little sister 4 years old running around the streets stark naked 2.30 in the morning. Her caring mother out shagging the greek dude who owned the restaurant she worked at her father pissed out of his head collapsed in the hall on returning from the pub, not shut the door so the kid escaped . Could go on and on but anyone who has lived on a council estate will get what I’m on about. Thing is some of my friends whose parents were very well off were treated rather badly by their middle class parents though only two of them.

Bring back that guy from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
14
Probably told it before but being a boring little cunt ill tell it again.
In the 80s i remember being sat on a bench with a mate,
Near our local chippy.
A bloke walks down the road and into the chippy
My mate ” i fuckin hate that show off cunt”
MNC “eh? Why like?”
Mate “every day he goes to the chippy an gets a beefburger the flash cunt”
😅
The bloke was older than us an working,
We couldn’t afford a beefburger.
Class envy at its finest

When I was growing up we were so poor my mum had to save up all her cigarette coupons to buy an iron lung.
20
For devilment, I would stuff match heads into my fathers cigarettes. Fortunately he never took the fag from his mouth once lit. What fun it was when watching him shit himself from the bang and ripping out his bottom lip in the process.

Remember at school taking early morning assembly, watching children dropping like flies, due to being undernourished from no supper the night before and minus the breakfast, sending them into a coma.
5
Good nom, horseshit indeed.
Mince, onions, taters… feed a family of 6 for under a fiver.
Except feeding children meat nowadays would probably be seen as child abuse.
And not a word in that article about the thousands of families pumping out sprog they can’t afford because the irresponsible welfare state encourages them to do so.
21
Sounds to me like the commissioner is after an inflation busting payrise.
“The average Children’s Commissioner for England salary ranges from approximately £23,109 per year (estimate) for an Administrative Assistant to £144,999 per year (estimate) for a Children’s Commissioner.”
All aboard!!
Fuck them.
Good morning.

How the fuck can anyone be in poverty, the benefits bonanza is rife, some report the other week about claiming a ‘disability’ got more money than minimum wage and add on a kid with ADHD (or being a cunt) pushed the income up to £37,000 a year.
Stop all benefits and ban food banks, the bone idle would get a job, the sponging east Europeans would fuck off back home and the weak would die off (I know it’s controversial).
1.3 million foreigners on benefits in the UK with most being out of work.
We Are Mugs, the Children’s commissioner should fuck off, both my parents worked, house that literally froze in the winter, no bathroom, no inside bog.
I was eight or nine before we got a house with a bathroom but still had an outside bog.
19
I was nineteen Soi, 1970.

There was – of course – ironic nuance in the DK song ‘Kill the Poor’.
But not a single one of the cunts who took umbridge with my lovely DK Kill the Poor t-shirt knew Biafra and co. were being ironic.
Which suited ME, cos I just liked winding-up the easily offended.
Probably be arrested for it these days.

Even though my parents didn’t have jobs, they sent out their children to work, picking dimps from late night top decks of buses. Didn’t care if we were murdered, so long as they got enough secondhand tobacco to refuel their habit. Once safely home, we kids would empty our pockets of used fag ends onto the table and begin our work separating them, some with lipstick stains (remember no tipped in those days to prevent early cancer) and all sorts of things. From the mountain of tobacco we would use a machine and rizzlers fag papers to make the cigarettes whole again. It did make our parents happy again, after smoking all the tea. Selfish bastards.
6
I remember those days Sammy, the docker pickers fighting over a few fag ends, happy times.
I can’t remember why but bananas must have been cheap because my mum was always giving me banana butties.

Some would say pure luxury, Sick of it and had to make do with sugar butties.

Let them eat shit-cakes.

No child should grow up in poverty in the UK, but no tax payer should have to pay for lazy, fucking useless parents.
Put the parents to work.
It doesn’t matter what work they do.
If, after the parents can account for their expenditure the kids are still suffering then by all means help them out financially.
Divert funds given to immigrants, the obscenely over funded NHS and the money wasted by other institutions on vanity projects.
That should sort things out.
15
Due to having an oilcloth floor, Mum would be able to hear you flicking crows rolled from your nose on to it and get a telling off.

I grew up in Victorian Lancashire with soot all over my gruel and a hairy blanket on the floor as my bed…we were quite well of for the times …. real poverty today in England, now that is man made 🧐
13
Luxury!! Me and our kid had to huddle together under a dead cat share the warmth!

Child poverty and lack of social housing has nothing to do with the constant influx of migrants of course.
Economic migrants drain the system of money and, with homes prioritised for them, cause a social housing crisis whilst pushing up rent costs for everyone else. There’s a big part of the issue.
9
That ‘Dickensian level poverty’ would account for all the child pickpockets at Paddinton station. That or all the the fucking Romanians.
9
I’m firmly in the
“if you can’t feed ’em don’t breed’ em” camp. We deliberately restricted the size of our family for this reason.
I’d go further, keep the two child benefit cap, if you chose to have a third child, you lose the benefit for one child.
People who see children as cash cows revolt me, as do people who weaponise their children after a separation.

Back in the UK for a week or 3, and I see poverty everywhere I look! Only today, I saw a little urchin with an iPhone 12, and a pair of ‘Heelies’ with a slight stain on! Poor bastard, I thought! Obviously from a deprived family! Sending their kid out in the street with an old model phone! Cunts!! And he wasn’t even a n*gnog!
