Global poverty has halved due to capitalism.

rewards to capital would have been far lower without globalisation.

'you're welcome'? We have you to thank for this lol

For pointing it out... do try to keep up.

'for pointing it out' aka stating the bleeding obvious
-
To many people it isn't obvious. They think things are getting worse.
-
I mean comparatively speaking. Compared to being alive in the 1300s. No technology, no infrastructure, no vaccines. Or 50 years from now - post brexit, environment gone. But I'm still conscious of the people alive today that the system has completely failed.
-
Environment gone? That takes the biscuit even for a head banging Remainer.
-
Colour me shocked. A brexiteer climate change denier

Exactly, everything is great. So why risk it all jumping into the unknown of Brexit? It might work out better - although every impact assessment says it won't. But why risk everything? Why not try to improve where needed instead of smashing everything up?
-
Why risk a decline in world poverty by allowing the UK to become independent of EU membership? Yak yak
-
Yes, let's help world poverty by making billionaires even richer & hoping they help out instead of just amassing more wealth. Let's help UK homelessness & poverty by making the country poorer (every gov impact assessment) Let's help the NHS by restricting the immigration needed

Immigration creates a global brain drain Paul. Who are the little Englanders now? Obesity is more of an issue than poverty in the UK. Billionaires have funded the Remain campaign. Next?
-
We need immigration for our health service, farming & food manufacturing to work. There's a link between obesity and poverty. The poorest unable to eat healthily. Vote Leave broke the law on overspending.
-
‘We’ = more Little Englander contradictions. What about the global health service? You understand the brain drain element right? Obesity is down to poor self management. Correct.
-
Maybe immigrants working in our health service make money, send it home, improve the lives of their family while helping the NHS run properly. Plus, EU migrants contribute over £2k more tax pa than the average British citizen 'Obesity is down to poor self management'. Wow!
-
Obesity is the new poverty is it Paul? Overindulgement is the new impoverished.? Bless.

Instead of giving them a hand-out, why don’t you try explaining that to every homeless person you encounter on the streets of London. I’m sure they’ll appreciate it more than hot food or a hot drink in their belly.
