It's not hard to work out these days May just mention NMW and everyone knows what you earn or state pension again everyone knows. Can't see the harm in it myself although it's not compulsory to do of course.

Sorry UJ, but if you had bothered to read all of my posts you would see that I am happy to provide funds for those in genuine need, but not those who do nothing to help themselves.
I am sure your communist beliefs make you think that everybody should have the same standard of living so I have 2 questions.
1) Who do you think is going to provide all the money to help others, when those who pay the high taxes move to another country?
2) How many of these poverty stricken pensioners do you invite to your house for a warm and a hearty meal when you cook cauldrons of it for yourself?

Yes but I don't want all you leftie people to think I live in poverty as the topic post is supposed people like me living in poverty.

Just started my income and was happy that the state provides me with a basic standard of living.

I mentioned Galty and so did Twink UJ.

PS - I see no paranoia ruling anywhere - just a conversation.

Because I was sneered at by another poster(2) and just wanted to put my side again.

No but one of the sneers has had a mutual block put on me so I can not reply to any of her posts, but she can as long as not directly directed at me and I can reply as long as not I do not directly reply to her.

She done it in the past I now I also do it.
