Bad shit happens here
but we dont really discuss it
Unless its on facebook
Then everyone is an expert at where you should put that kitten you found off the street
How you should react to a local murder
How you should live if you are in poverty
People here do not see universal credit as poverty they see it as people deliberately taking from the state , and this opinion comes from Bill who is on DSA.
Empathy eats sympathy and the friendliest person you’ll meet today will be the middle aged lady serving you in Greggs or Sainsbury’s. The scariest person is the drugged up old guy who follows you out asking for a cig, a tab, a lighter, 20p or 50p.
The scariest thing really should be the headlines and the front pages of the local paper and the politicians making decisions for our futures that we feel we have no say.
