        Because we're the 6th richest country in the world out of 196. Let that sink in, anyone who thinks we're 'poor' is deluded.

        that's valid concern, bt an accusation often made without enough evidence - what's your source?

        Everything has to be paid for. Old folk in this country are in greater need, as is our NHS. Charity begins at home, so my Nan said.😎
