Where Poverty Lives At The Seaside 

+Ann Merrick You are a ray of sunshine lol. i suffer with addiction myself, if he was my neighbour i would have helped. Dont think everyone has the same cold heart as you!

+Ann Merrick i volunteer at a drop in centre, suggest you 'drop off'. Dont judge what or who you dont know, idiot.

+Ann Merrick Hahaha calm down idiot, you have issues.

+Ann Merrick You are the sad act who started this! Also you need to invest in a dictionary! ciao 😉

Anna, you don't know what another may do till it knocks. No one can know the true intentions of another. I'm no saint, but I would gladly help the elderly and animals. Say you know me... I'll laugh at your un-educated guess's.

They do , for immigrants

Totally agree. British people should come first not immigrants

@@holymolyholymoly2624you’re part of the problem. No they don’t. Stop whining about immigrants you utter muppets

Brexit and Tories did this. Not immigrants. You idiots voted for them

The British way. Survival of the fittest. Might is right. Every man for himself.

It's both left winger and right winger British aswell. I noticed conservatives lie to you but the left talk the talk and don't walk the walk. Conservatives enjoy hurting the poor and the left enjoy showing their virtue .

That is pretty presumptuous of you to say about people you do not know. Maybe stop trying to insult others when you know nothing about their life situation.

Some people??? Don't you mean everyone!!! Nobody is truly bothered about other people. People in this Great country of ours only think of themselves and money. Nobody cares in this life!!

...did you get the job?

that's terrible

@James Morgan yes you do, I informed the idiots I wouldn't be attending due to my interview which was on a Tues, then a bit after I got a letter informing me because I missed my two weekly job centre thing I was being sanctioned. Luckily I got the job anyway so it didn't matter

@@markohenry5891 sorry no,the people that delt with me were very helpful and extremely understanding,I got a job very quickly and think if you play ball with them they will play ball with you.

LOL what a Essex up system

@ Ann - Now I get it, you are either a peevish 12-year old or a Russian bot. Either way - STFU.

@ Ann - Medication needed ASAP!! Or exorcism. Ha ha ha.

Carolyn Egan stop please you are not helping

TheWolfsan you are a twat

Money is pumped in church to convert in poor countries. God only knows why!

Retromovie Fan I live in Bath and it’s a rich authority I know because I worked for them for over 30 years. The homelessness is out of control now it’s beyond shocking

Retromovie Fan .. Same here. I remember years ago when we made most things but over the years successive British governments have allowed big business to take their work loads to cheap/poorly paid labour third world countries who now make most of our clothing, even big name designer wear. As a teen for a short while I worked in a clothing factory making clothes for Marks & Spencer's, a well known high street brand, now their clothing is made in Peru !!?? China makes a whole lot of the retail market products sold here in the UK, again on cheap labour with long hours. A lot of the food/produce we eat is grown abroad when once upon a time we grew all our own food/produce ..

Retromovie I’m 56. I’ve lived frugally, and have been blessed at owning a modest home, have a pension, and 401k. I save as much as I can. I have never bought a new car, always buy only what I need, and have never done drugs, and thankfully haven’t had mental health issues. I know there is no such thing as security in life. So far so good. We in America, like UK, had a good run. It was obtainable. Now the world wants what we have. There’s not enough to go around. Companies make money abroad, while the 3 rd world they exploit gets bread crumbs. We at home simply cost too much, and started living beyond our means since the 1980s when women started coming into the work force. A 2 incomer family can only work for so long, until you have no choice, but work for an economy based on those 2 wages. I’ll take capitalism over communism any day. But when capitalism goes wrong. The middle class has always suffered the most. The reason why we got by in the past, was because we still got married, had plenty of kids, and church life, and common sense was still all relevant. Our society still had family safety nets. Now its the government who decides and knows what’s best. When you choose to live life based around self and ME. Its not going to end well. Its only to get worst when the boomers start getting old. Its already happening her in Los Angeles. Many live Out of their cars, or rent rooms out of houses, while they lived high and mighty in their youth. Advice to the young. You will be old someday. Plan, prepare, and save save save. Don’t ever rely on the government. They will never let you be free.

Thankfully we have a president that is busting his ass for the people unlike what it would be if our president was a liberal piece of shit thief. TRUMP 2020!!!

That’s exactly what Trump keeps on saying.

Greg Hallanan Hello Greg, industry in Harwich, (manufacturing industry in particular) has been on the decline for decades. Harwich like most seaside towns post the second world war. Has also morphed into an unemployment black spot. Since the 2010 coalition and now the Conservative government, have been moving the vulnerable and welfare dependent out of the capitol on an industrial scale. This social cleansing has again altered Harwich and other seaside towns irretrievably. Rising crime, social tension, grinding poverty. You would do well to remember that the excuse given for austerity was the financial collapse of 2008. This was caused by the banks, which should of been allowed to fail, (as they did in Iceland) and those that led the country to ruin. Arrested and charged with fraud. As a country, living within our means is subjective, I would argue we already do, and the many are paying the price for the few. You can contact me on Facebook under the name Cain Adams if you would like to discuss this further. :)

So sad to hear......Hope he's in a better place now.

@@djel2573 Don’t forget about the royals. One of the tiaras that the queen wears would probably feed a few hundred families for weeks. Let’s get our priorities right. I also agree with all of your other comments about corporations, sports players etc.

@Buzzin Smaug49 😆😆😆😆😆

All countries should shun chinese products in particular.

British manufacturing industry was decimated during the Thatcher era. There are still plenty of jobs in Britain right now, but wages are so low it's impossible for people to live with any dignity. It will only get worse after we leave the EU, when the extreme rightwing Tories in power now remove the last vestiges of worker protection. But hey! That's democracy, and that's what people voted for.

@D. Levy no you have Trump instead. Infinitely worse....

@Mike D Right on, they will blame the EU

Agree it’s sickening

@Buzzin Smaug49 Why write in capitals? What you are mentioning is right and proper and already in place in the system. Those who cannot work due to disability are on EESA and those who can work (but not in employment and looking for work) are awarded JSA. The main reason it all turned into a massive clusterfuck (welfare reforms 2016-2020) is due to DWP farming out the application and re application and transition process to cowboy assessment firms such as Capita and Atos. Also what did not help was the alleged bonus schemes awarded to assessment staff to find as many disabled people as they can fit for work, when they were clearly not fit for work. It got messed up in a kind of Chinese whispers way (for want of a better description). Deliberately or not will be next to impossible to confirm?

oof

To see how little the British Government is doing the tackle these huge problems is just unbelievable... Shocking to see this level of poverty in the UK and I've been living here (Isle of Man) for 17 years now...

Gina MacDougall agreed!

Gina MacDougall I am down, hundreds of people kick me, and tell you what - karma is very kind to them, they are flourishing

@ju ju fuck the next, if god existed hed become an athiest before i die from fear of what ill do to him.

There’s no such thing as karma, but there is an eternal God to whom we all will account for how we live our lives.

Florence, there probably are, but they aren't the problem. It's the people at the top to blame, not those at the bottom.

The very numerous and counting, lazy parasitic good for nothings, sit in government and Houses of commons and lords! The cost for us to aid these corrupt parasites is millions nay billions per year! The current chancellor's expenses which claimed for this past year are £1.4 million alone. Many other parasitic minister's claimed expenses which about matched! I would rethink your idea of scroungers dear 🙄

A country that decides to keep renewing it's incredibly expensive neuclear program even though nuclei deterrent is a dangerous lie peddled by politicians

Yes Ms. Theresa u r rite & I do give them money when I'm in Nashville Tn. & I've got a lil extra.

Help,who you can, and you do not need to be rich.

If you was rich ,you wouldn’t give a fuck , that’s how you get rich , so full of shit ,

it is a joke

Maybe it’s because the food bank is in a place that gives advice on other matters?

Haha, you think they listen to daft little things like *evidence*? You obviously haven’t met many DWP staff 😂

@@dissonantdreams how right you are. I'm on universal credit as I'm deemed unfit for work due to a physical disability (EDS) and bipolar disorder. Last week after a bad depressive episode, I was taken to hospital for an OD. A few days ago (just out of hospital for suicide attempt) I got letter saying I have to go to a fit for work test thing, problem is I'm too depressed to go. Also as I have mobility issues it's hard to get there anyway. My dr wrote to them saying I'm unfit, but they still need me to go to this assessment before I get paid. Get these tories out!

Sorry.

@@francescafoster854 Why wern't you on sickness benifits then?

Matt Chamberlain all charities are fucking corrupted

The government is guilty for sure, but your comment about agenda 21 is utter nonsense. Agenda 21 is about preserving the planet we live on. Climate chaos caused by industrial activity these past 200 years. It has to be addressed.

where when did it say he passed away ? i never saw or heard them say that

Where in Massachusetts do you live? I used to live in Massachusetts.

Amazed at how neatly the maggots piled up the booze cans!

Mr M The problem started years ago when councils started moving tenants out of London to the seaside. I live near Hastings and yes, it has improved, in parts, but it is still a dump, with shut down shops and run down housing stock. It has immense social problems, drug usage, alcohol abuse and very little police support. Some years ago, when the new local police Commander was due to be shown round, the police cleared all the druggies and drinkers off the streets, to give her a false impression. Next day they were all back. The local supermarket has practically shifts of beggars outside it. A few weeks ago there was a fight over a pitch which resulted in one of them getting stabbed with a screwdriver. Local school children have to walk past drunks and drug users sprawling across the pavement, peeing themselves. Shoplifting is rife and blatant, with some regulars doing their shopping several times a day. One day the supermarket had no meat for sale because it had all been stolen. A few weeks ago one man pushed a lady behind the till to steal drink and cigarettes. Welcome to Hastings.

Mr M By the way, Hastings isn't really near London. It can easily take 2 hours to get there by train. A fast train takes 90 minutes. It's 60 miles.

The north west much more grim

Yea waving their flags and giving them bunches of flowers,,,,give me strength!!!!

The royal family is an easy bashing, but at least the Queen took the time to visit this place. More then could be said for the greedy billionaires and CEOs that could, but choose not to invest in towns like this one.

Does the big divide between the hours worked, sacrifices made and good decisions also make you angry? What should make you angry is this man is a raging alcoholic who clearly continues to make one bad decision after another. It amazes me how you can have a lifetime of bad decisions just ignored because you got old. I see it everyday and did so when I was growing up as well. You have people who spend $5 on a beer at the pub, you have people who don't drink or only drink at their house where it's $0.50 a beer. You have people who spend thou$ands on a new TV and Xbox while others go without and use what they have until it actually breaks. You have people who spend hundred$ on cable and some who only have the 20 free digital channels over the air. You have people who shop at the convenience stores and petrol stations paying 10x-100x the cost if you buy from a regular store and obviously those who shop at regular stores. You have people who buy whatever they want including name brand items and some people buy store brand or use Raise.com and Coupons. You have people who have $35-$35 late fee's on every single bill, not because they couldn't pay it, but because they forgot to pay it and you have others who pay on time and avoid those massive fee's. You have some people who spend $6 a day on cigarette's, let alone beer, every single day and other's who don't smoke and put that same money in a savings account or a small free 401k type account at RobinHood. (etc, etc, etc, etc, I can go on and on with these daily decisions.) One person will be able to retire and live a comfortable life on a "meager" salary and the other person will be talking about kicking a man when he's down because there is ZERO personal responsibility or accountability for their actions. It's sad and you're not helping anyone by taking away their personal responsibility. You should be telling kids and young adults not to be like this guy and learn to curb their desires and make smart decisions that will impact their future in a positive way. That bender every Friday night where you drop $100-$200 isn't helping your future and it also burdens me with paying for your terrible liver in the future too.

I am considering moving somewhere in Lancashire. Are there a lot of good jobs? I can do anything (work at Tesco/in a shop/ care assistant jobs) but my partner works in I.T. Would appreciate your take on your hometown. :)

If the state can’t put jobs in your area, put thier heads on blocks and take everything for yourself

@@NOIRIST Read his first sentence.

Are you suggesting a swim to work? Harwich to Felixstow is 2 miles of estuary or an 80 mile round trip by road.

Razamadaz Philip Bloomfield was sanctioned because he missed his appointment with the job centre. The reason he missed his appointment was because he was in hospital, with a life threatening illness. He was an alcoholic, yes. But his fall from grace came over the years..He worked for decades, raised and supported a wife and 2 children. He was a lonely, broken man. It may be hard for you to feel sympathy, as you work hard. But still struggle to make ends meet. Unfortunately, work is no longer a route out of poverty for millions of hard working people.. But Philip is also a victim, of a concerted effort to socially exclude millions. This is the result of ideological warfare, deliberately manufactured to bring about the demise of the working class population. His work history spans decades, he paid his dues. He needed help, not a barrage of civil servant cruelty.

I'm lonely with two kids been homeless too I had my ESA stopped but I've not turned to drink. I sorted everything out myself. I have my own business now. Too many people are sympathetic to alcoholics. Tough love is the only answer. My kids father is one. Glad I threw him out.
