Were any of them starving?
It is probably more than 200 yards between a pub and McDonalds on some sections of the march.

If they want to experience limited services they should try living in rural North Yorks and see how spoon fed they are.

Don't worry folks have a good laugh now, you can pay for the effects of the so called austerity measures later. Anyone thinks austerity is a free lunch then they're an idiot. Of course when it comes to paying the bill the architects' of austerity will have all fucked off to nice overpaid retirement in a tax haven somewhere.

I think the days of being able to judge someone's wealth by the size of their TV screen were over a long time ago

If you mean that these huge money making machines that pay nothing into the system are doing nothing wrong because they are within the law, it's morally wrong for a lot of people and the Govt can end it by changing the law, or simplifying it......but choose not to. They see nothing wrong with a working couple not getting paid enough to pay for the basics but deem it fine for companies to exploit rediculous loop-holes and pay zero tax. It's corruption basically and it was circumstances similar to this - a corrupt government, bought out by and in collusion with big business.....along with the resentment stirred up by high unemployment amongst the younger generations and racial/ethnic tensions that was powerful enough to kick start the Arab Spring

From what I can see even on basic benefits you should get paid enough for 'the basics', nevermind a working couple.
But then it depends what you consider 'basic' - is it having an £800 phone and expensive entertainment subscription, or having a standard of life that would have been incredibly enviable in the 70s?

In our 'global economy' in many situations it's a case of a company being here and paying 0 business tax themselves, but employing people that do, paying business rates and generally bringing money in to the country... or doing it in Luxemburg.
Have you checked to see how much tax ebay.co.uk pays in the UK?
