Originally broadcast in 1996 on the Nynex channel The Line. This was part of the election special. Taken from one of the many VHS tapes I still have and can't get rid of.
Ordinary people on the street who can speak in full sentences and sound intelligent and articulate, who aren't covered with tattoos. Can tell it's from before about 2000.
Private sector housing = Ex-Council houses bought under right to buy and then renting them out for 4 times the rate of rent and most of that is housing benefit.
There’s still too many people living on the streets, rough sleeping or sofa surfing even though there’s so many empty buildings that are doing nothing. Some of those buildings could be used to give homeless people somewhere to live in safety and a degree of comfort. There’s no money in that though so it’ll never happen. Yes I know there’s some people who prefer to live on the streets but that’s a minority. It makes me angry when I see people sleeping rough after seeing empty buildings just up the road from these people.
I think advertising your cakes as exceedingly good is very pretentious as they are “run of the mill” at best, furthermore I’m convinced that the revenue generated from said confectionery might be better spent helping the vagrant community than spent on misleading advertisement.
