    Alston calls out poverty

    Then he paused. Despite its wealth, a fifth of the UK population (14 million people) lives in poverty, he said. For children it is worse – about a third and rising. Government cuts imposed after the global financial crisis under the rubric of a necessary period of “austerity” had stripped billions from previous spending commitments while changes to the benefits system had left people scrabbling for money. Brexit had left the country focusing elsewhere, he said, and whatever happened, its impact would make the economy worse. “Great misery” had been inflicted, Alston wrote. “British compassion for those who are suffering has been replaced by a punitive, mean-spirited and often callous approach.”
    The statistics Alston used in his reports are numbing. At the height of the GFC there were 29 food banks in the UK. There are now about 2000. The number of people sleeping rough in England is up by 165 per cent. More than 500 children’s centres and 340 libraries have been closed down. An estimated 700,000 adults and 1.5 million children will fall into poverty by 2020.
    Responding to this contradiction, Alston says that the government’s focus on employment as a cure-all for poverty means it is refusing to acknowledge the seriousness of what is going on. “Living in a working household does not bring freedom from poverty,” his final report concludes. “In the UK, six in every 10 of those in poverty come from a family where somebody is working.” The Office for National Statistics estimates that 2.4 million working people were in poverty in 2017.

    The terrorism aspect aside , surely poverty has a lot to do with any unrest in any country, IMO, we're going down the UK road , only the numbers are different, the likes of our PM, who mocks those who don't have a job with quotes of unfunded empathy tells me where he and his party are at.
    The people committing these mass murders , may well be mentally impaired , but why and how do they fall through the cracks in our " first world health systems " ?

    I don't find it ironic in the least that a failed assassination of Reagan , lead to the majority supreme court decision by a Reagan appointed judge , that the second amendment also meant , individuals as well as a well regulated militia ,should have the right to bear arms , after all Reagan was a NRA member.
