Ticking a box

In, perhaps, the only scene that packs a tinge of tension, we find the Shehanshah of Afghanistan majestically seated on his throne. When he’s offered a plate of turkey with a dagger sticking out from it, it’s a suspicious sight. Before we know it, the said server has yanked the dagger from the piece of meat and jabbed it into the leader’s palm.

Since 2010, spending on children has fallen by 10%, making children the most likely to be poor – and the old the least: contrary to what Boris Johnson told Andrew Marr last weekend, child poverty is rising sharply on current government plans, to nearly 40% by 2022. Angela Rayner, spelling out again … [Read more...] about What sort of country would tolerate child poverty rising to 40%? Maybe the UK
