Item #5 relates to child poverty and cites the ONS document https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/206778/full_hbai13.pdf, appendix 2 of which is where the questions were copied from.

Will there be room for the Romanians and Bulgarians if we've been flooded by the Spanish and Irish ?

It's part of it: A child is considered to be in severe low income and material deprivation if they live in a family that has a final material deprivation score of 25 or more and an equivalised household income below 50 per cent of median income Material deprivation questions for children ; Outdoor space or facilities nearby to play safely Enough bedrooms for every child of 10 or over of a different sex to have their own bedroom Leisure equipment such as sports equipment or a bicycle A family holiday away from home for at least one week a year A hobby or leisure activity Friends around for tea or a snack once a fortnight In winter, able to keep accommodation warm enough Replace any worn out furniture Replace or repair major electrical goods such as a refrigerator or a washing machine, when broken Go on school trips Toddler group/nursery/playgroup at least once a week Fresh fruit and vegetables eaten by children every day Warm winter coat for each child

That worked in Eire and Spain; http://www.pie-mag.com/articles/5704/spain-s-unsold-housing-said-at-2-2m-to-take-six-years-to-clear/ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2531852/Exorcising-Irelands-ghost-estates-Demolition-begins-housing-projects-built-economic-boom-left-country-300-000-homes.html

Obviously another bunch of agenda driven 'lefties'.

Take a look around League 1 and find another striker we could buy for the same price that would score regularly in the Prem and get picked for England. What we paid for him is irrelevant, it's what he is currently worth to the team that is the season defining point.

The child poverty stat comes from the Office for National Statistics.

Define poverty by standard of nutrition, housing, and domestic welfare - it exists, even if some choose to sweep it under the carpet.

Yes I am - based entirely on my wife's experience in teaching primary school children in Fleetwood. I'm sorry if that doesn't match up with your rose-tinted view, but it is the reality. They may not be 'poor' in the third world experience, nor possibly when compared to Dickensian pen portraits of Victorian rookeries, but in comparative terms there is a great deal of poverty in some parts of this 'Green and Pleasant Land'.

You need to take off your blinkers Whitey.

http://www.trusselltrust.org/stats "The Trussell Trust has seen a 76 percent increase in the number of foodbanks launched since April 2012" "346,992 people received a minimum of three days emergency food from Trussell Trust foodbanks in 2012-13, compared to 128,697 in 2011-12 and up from 26,000 in 2008-09. Of those helped in 2012-13, 126,889 (36.6 percent) were children." "Only four per cent of people turned to foodbanks due to homelessness; 30% were referred due to benefit delay; 18% low income and 15% benefit changes (up from 11% in 2011-12)" http://uk.news.yahoo.com/one-food-bank-opening-uk-every-four-days-012533480.html#xEaW7MH In 2010 there were 79 food banks in the UK. Now there are over 200 - 199 of them run with the help of the Trussell Trust .

What about #1, #2, and #5 ?

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2532923/Michael-Gove-blasts-Blackadder-myths-First-World-War-spread-television-sit-coms-left-wing-academics.html Apparently everything we know about WW1 is a left wing conspiracy.

Which therefore means that both will be going nowhere.

Good job he's not a Villan.

The only score that matters is the one at the final whistle.

Peter Capaldi is coming for you.

Gotta have a scapegoat.

'Morgan Shneiderling'. Got back in from my lucky 43 mile bike ride, put on my Saints shirt and cardigan ( I am old enough that my daughter bought me a cardy for XMAS ), turn on Radio Lanky and the first thing I hear is "Clyne shoots - GOAL !".

Exeter & Wycombe, for 2. One thing about the skates, I think they're the lowest placed 'fan owned' club in the FL.

Personal experience ?

I thought you'd left the 'playpen'. "In the last 40 years close to 20% of the Amazon rainforest has been cut down..." - http://environment.nationalgeographic.com/environment/habitats/last-of-amazon/ "Brazil says the rate of deforestation in the Amazon increased by 28% between August 2012 and last July," http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-24950487 Not sure of the direction of this point, but I reckon that chopping down a 300 foot tall tree and replacing it's 'footprint' with a couple of square yards of grass won't balance the carbon cost.
