Don't agree with that at all. How many people, if they were unexpectedly to lose their jobs, could sustain themselves through a few months of unemployment. If you have a mortgage that's not covered by benefit. You're likely to have credit to pay, be it car loans, credit cards or something else.IMO, people living without a home are either doing it by choice or mentally ill. I base this on several experiences:

It wouldn't take much for most people, especially if they don't have family to rely on.
Sick Boy I have accepted your invitation and PM'd you.
University debt isn't normally a problem. It only gets repaid after earnings reach a certain level. But then if they are earning just over the threshold it becomes a problem.
Fair play.
Part of me feels it needs to be videoed for some Channel 5 TV show though
Like I said the difficulty is when earnings just come above where you have to pay back the loan. Mortgages are just part of it.How do you get a mortgage when you already owe £50k of university debt?
But as I said if you don't have kids of a certain age you don't qualify for emergency housing. Councils have to prioritise the homeless as there is so many. Then you have the bedroom tax if you are on benefits. It is getting really hard to survive if you lose your job and don't have younger kids. Or how about landlords that hand you notice to leave as they want to put the rent up?I'm sure there are many like this who get into difficulties and end up in temporary accommodation.
Don't you think it is time that you bought some new clothes? There is being frugal and there is being tightCheeky. If you have a picture in your head of me as a tweed-sporting dandy you'd be disappointed. Still have a Cov' accent and dress in 20 year old clothes.

because I'm frugal
I have stuff that is 20 yrs old but will never wear it.I prefer "careful"
Yes but who's going to keep the economy ticking over!I prefer "careful"

I thought you meant you were still dressing like a 20 yr old.

Work 'uniform' is usually a suit jacket over the top of whichever dodgy rock band I went to see a decade or two ago.
Spot the skull!
Well if he is 40ish then yes, but a 20 year old from the mid 90's :nailbiting:I have stuff that is 20 yrs old but will never wear it.

Shall I put one up that shows those crying about the remainers acting like spoilt brats who will do anything in the hope of getting their own way?
Yep go for it.Shall I put one up that shows those crying about the remainers acting like spoilt brats who will do anything in the hope of getting their own way?
Or another that shows what they were worried about what would happen if there was a leave vote? The problem is that the worrying points didn't happen so they make out that those who voted leave haven't got a clue what they voted for.
I had an Interesting chat walking up to the game yesterday with a spritely 83 year old gent (If I were to make that age I doubt I'd be so mobile)
So his view was he didn't want be dictated to from Germany and all the other obvious failings of open borders on Housing, Schools, Infrastructure etc. For me those arguments are, apart from Borders better solved by domestic policy.
So as I was with my 15 yr old Nephew it was interesting as I relaid the conversation to hear him insist his agegroup should have been given the Vote.
I would genuinely like to invite you to a homeless shelter for young adults where I volunteer, you can listen to their stories and learn about some real life experiences. We're both on the south coast.
Everyone did, that was what was in the referendum bill. It was only every advisory and would need to go through parliament however it was expected parliament would vote in line with the referendum result.I still don't understand how Cameron can call a vote, then when the result is leave, it's suddenly not possible/illegal without Parliament etc? Surely they knew this before the EU vote?

What's happening now is they are trying to avoid using the agreed process. I have a suspicion that is because they know the longer they delay it going to parliament the more chance there is it won't be voted straight through.
Could anyone have objected to 16yr olds having a say as Scotland had been permitted.Where would it end though with the ages? Also why did he feel he should get a vote as a few young people I spoke to were only worried about ease of holidays and gap year or travelling problems.
They can't overturn the vote as such but they can choose to ignore it as it was advisory.I assume though, that as the vote was Leave, they can't overturn that vote? They'd have to have another vote, if anything?

It may have covered but did no one raise it?
The data confirms previous indications that local results were strongly associated with the educational attainment of voters - populations with lower qualifications were significantly more likely to vote Leave. (The data for this analysis comes from one in nine wards)
The level of education had a higher correlation with the voting pattern than any other major demographic measure from the census
The age of voters was also important, with older electorates more likely to choose Leave
Ethnicity was crucial in some places, with ethnic minority areas generally more likely to back Remain. However this varied, and in parts of London some Asian populations were more likely to support Leave
The combination of education, age and ethnicity accounts for the large majority of the variation in votes between different places
Across the country and in many council districts we can point out stark contrasts between localities which most favoured Leave or Remain
There was a broad pattern in several urban areas of deprived, predominantly white, housing estates towards the urban periphery voting Leave, while inner cities with high numbers of ethnic minorities and/or students voted Remain
Around 270 locations can be identified where the local outcome was in the opposite direction to the broader official counting area, including parts of Scotland which backed Leave and a Cornwall constituency which voted Remain
Postal voters appear narrowly more likely to have backed Remain than those who voted in a polling station
After months of analysing the data at the most localised levels possible Martin Rodenbaum, on behalf of the BBC, has concluded the following:
A total waste of the licence fee heads should roll at the BBC for this.
