Join a football team nowadays you have to pay, down the park the are no football posts and everything costs money now! Most havent been bought up with family values! I have spent quite a lot of time in Greece growing up and you look around, families together every evening, in town and on the beach weather they are 2yrs old or 25! You dont see them drinking on the streets, getting in fights in clubs/bars! This all stems from parenting and respect, this country has no respect anymore! and most parents nowadays ust have kids to get benefits!!! and i agree with you Gary its totally wrong but most young kids are unruly because the is nothing to do!!

He has lived in a hostel, and environment which saw his weight plummet to 7st at a height of 6ft because he couldn't afford the luxury of food. His benefits have now been cut (alongside everyone else's) and the shortfall between his rent and housing benefit is £70 pcm. Why are the government doing this? Simple; the Tories wish to kill off the poor. Literally. My partner has been trying to survive on benefits since being thrown out at 15.
