Not really successful as in actually doing anything other than play up to a character he created.

In the same way that the Kardashian clan, (I know zero about them actually), are "successful".

Either way, i do find it impressive to walk away from £600k a year and into a far lower paid job.

Wouldnt mean i would vote for him! But its a good trait...
 
But my takeaway was about the 33% of british children in poverty? Surely that cant be true

I struggle with that as well. But I have a view that pretty much every pressure group will use statistics to suit their agenda. Like the obesity ones will have you believe that millions of kids are fat as. They arent. Some are, sure, but they create new definitions to suit their narrative.

On the poverty one, they use a relative ratio of a % of average earnings = being in poverty. By that ratio, I am in poverty, and so is my ex wife, and one of our kids. Frankly, neither of us are.
 
Have you thought that perhaps Labour gets negative press and Tories get positive press because of what they want to do.....
Have you thought about asking yourself why you claim that the same robust economy that you believe can survive the hardest of Brexits, can't survive these spending plans? Or that the wealth that we will generate following our triumphant exit from the EU won't be able to sustain it?

For probably the tenth time...
