PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Hello Forumites! In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour. Threads that are found to have derailed into wider discussions may be removed. Users who repeatedly disregard this may have their Forum account banned. Please also avoid posting personally identifiable information, including links to your own online property listing which may reveal your address. Thank you for your understanding.

Apart from anything else, if we were all like you, what would the Daily Mail whine on about then?
Well, as a society we either lay down and accept very low moral and ethical standards, have no get up an go, take no personal responsibility for our actions and blame everyone other than ourselves for our failures.
Or...we live by very high moral and ethical standards, take full personal responsibility for our actions and blame ourselves when we fail and learn from our mistakes and improve ourselves.
The former is the world of "Blair's children".
The latter is the world of evoke. Proudly so.Everyone is entitled to my opinion!0 -

The world of "Evoke" sounds too much like the law of the jungle for me to be comfortable with it. We are supposed to be a civilised society. The best way to judge that is by how we treat the weak.
In the specific case being discussed, spending a penny on some support now will save us all £'s in the long run. Isn't that a good use of resource?0 -
No, I am not.
The truth often hurts though. I say what most hard-working taxpayers think.
I'm a hard working tax payer and I do most certainly not share your thoughts...
Case in point-Try speaking your mind about various sexual lifestyles, religions or races and see how far it gets you these days. The 'liberals' have promoted deviant, immoral lifestyles whilst silencing true free speech.0
