The poor "WILL" never have enough.
Because the rich "CAN" never have enough.
@brianferguson7840 The poor will always blame the rich and the rich will always blame the poor.
The poor can never have enough until they destroy the rich's wealth. See: communism in Soviet Union, Cuba, Venezuela, China before capitalism
@SmokeroftheFuture that's our political system
labour always go on about the 1% the socalled rich but what is classed as rich in the UK we nr 4000 Millionaires including labour mp,s and 40+ billionaires ...
Sadly accurate statement
The UK is steadily slipping into a 3rd world country, and it's terrifying.
Probably not 3rd world, perhaps sick man of Europe. I know it is Utopia, but a change in the political system is urgently needed.
@@Gert-DK and before the UK entered the EU, it was classed as the sick man of Europe back then, now because people have voted against their own interests, it's gone back to that again with most people unable to leave the UK for a better life
@@roseanncampbell3168 Yes I know it. I was born in 1961 and remember our EEC vote. I also remember there was talk that the UK might introduce rationing again. Fortunately, it didn't come to anything. It was completely incomprehensible, as we had plenty of food ourselves. Our agriculture was also afraid that it would come to rationing in the UK. They were also then a major supplier of food to the UK.

A record 3 million food parcels have been handed out in the past year.
Too few . Too littlle !!!!

@@happydace6991 Yeah, and it keeps the Trussell Trust in business to keep giving out food parcels, and it is a business, it's top earners earn between them over 1.5 million and they sit on millions in donations.

14 years of Tory misrule brought us here and a difficult subject to listen to. Also huge contrast in the quality of political oratory compared to the likes of Sunak.
The media have allowed this situation to get so bad because they don't explain the facts properly to the public. There is so much rancour about the welfare system precisely because no one ever explains the amounts that can be claimed and that there are more people needing work than there are jobs

The Tories really are burning everything to the ground before they're ousted.
Brown your hero 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Remember that letter the New Labour Party left the last time they were in power. They should all have been imprisoned for that!
My theory exactly.
TORIES ARE NOT CALLED LOWER THAN VERMIN FOR NOTHING
This smacks of hypocrisy. Gordon Brown sounds like he cares in this Sky News interview but it is all very easy to point to the terrible state of Britain today (and I agree, there is a huge amount of suffering and poverty amongst ordinary Britons now and we've sunk to just about a third world state) but what about the damage he caused when he was Chancellor of the Exchequer and Prime Minister.? Yes, I despise the Conservative government for not caring one jot about the British public, throwing away billions of pounds of our money on idiotic and wasteful projects (net zero, for example, or housing illegal migrants in luxury hotels). However, I can remember what Blair and Brown did to our country. They initiated the massive increase in migrants coming into the UK, thus making our housing shortage even worse, increasing the pressure on the struggling NHS and education system, plus diluting our own culture and traditions .In addition, Gordon Brown stole our work pensions that many of us were relying on to avoid poverty in old age. He was also stupid enough to sell much of Britain's gold reserves at a very low price on the market., so impoverishing Britain even more. And does he really care about the ordinary people? Don't forget what he called 65 year old pensioner Gillian Duffy from Rochdale (who was a Labour supporter) when she politely asked him a question about immigration and the economy. Her question was in no means aggressive or challenging and was a fair one, given her circumstances. Thinking the microphone was switched off, Brown expressed rage to his aides saying "Who let this bigoted woman in?" There was no way that Gillian Duffy was a "bigot" but it seems that Brown doesn't like us ordinary people disagreeing with him. He's also a Global ist, and like Tony Blair and most of our politicians, supports such elitist organisations as the W E F and the W H O. who are out to destroy the nation state. There's much more I could say, but this comment is too long already! Basically, do not trust him.
He talks about the poor working class after he abolished the 10% tax bracket impacting the poorer working families more than anyone else.
@@mycatspethooman5590 Yes, very true, I had forgotten about that.
@@mycatspethooman5590living standards for the poorer end of the public spectrum was higher under Labour between ‘97 and 2010. The Duffy episode was also a long time ago and during a time when frankly the country was relatively respectable compared to the mess that it is today in 2024. Who knows why he said it? Maybe he made mistake and apparently he did later apologise and admit his error.
@@matthewburns7989 so doubling thier tax burden in 2008 was OK then?
thankyou for for that id forgotten all the damage he and Blair did when in power
Gordon helped put the UK into poverty taxed pensions and sold UK gold , but told everyone he was going to do it and the price crashed. Praised the UK banking system and allowed deregulation, banks then crashed. The first food bank opened in the Uk when T bliar was pm, but strange how they will always blame someone else. ?
Spot on with that one.
It's pretty crazy that this guy has more credibility than Sunak and Starmer combined. I am a Tory too.

"Nobody is safe until everybody is safe" ..gordon brown...during the covid pandemic!
If only he had been prime minister - he would have sorted all these problems out. Oh! Wait a minute!!
If only he hadn't sold that gold at around £200 per ounce and now nearer £2000 per ounce.
Poverty is real & conservatives choose to ignore the JRF research, if only they went to see these poor areas where poverty is in plain sight - it’s the role of the gov to see that policies are balanced to reduce poverty levels, but they have failed & have let people down. How is it that working people are destitute & visiting food banks? Clearly the way out of poverty is not employment now is it? Gas lighting & blaming individuals to cover up failed fiscal policies & they are powerless to regulate private corporations such as energy, phone, supermarket chains who insist on greedflation paying CEOs obscene bonuses whilst pushing up inflation… its grotesque in the simplest term
They have no idea of balance……….As far as the P.M. is concerned he has already doing the “levelling up” as he calls it. Levelling up for the rich and levelling down for the poor…..🥶
Articulate, principled, intelligent, and even at the end managed to be genuinely funny. Oh, for his like back.
Except that he flogged off the gold
@VL-qy4fc .....at the lowest possible price. Funny how so many folk seem to have forgotten that uncomfortable truth. Gold spot price is now nearly 6 x the price he achieved (manipulated down to). I dare say his City mates made an absolute fortune....
He led us into recession and sold our gold at rock bottom prices.
Shame Gordon and his Chum Tony caused this tragedy. Strange how the perpetrators shout the loudest. I support Dr David Starkey and his analysis of this travestry.
He sold our gold at the bottom of the market and told everyone in advance he was going to do this. This says everything about his competence
And ruined the pensions for people.
How about stop giving money away to wars
Yes let's give up and let Putin win and take over an invade other countries too like Poland. Nothing compared with £2 billion wasted on PPE and widespread austerity and corruption since Blair every PM seems to have got worst.

Housing costs are the biggest expense …….house prices tripled from 1997 to 2007.

The guy eho sold our gold at the bottom of the market and deregulated financial services to the point of half of large banks needing a bail out...
Agreed, but sadly there are a lot of nostalgic 'New Labour' voters commenting here who seem to have either chosen to forget that traitorous atrocity or even deny it ever happened.. It's all very middle-class champagne-socialist with rose-tinted goggles - a bit like the pro-Hamas supporters who are currently denying the atrocities of 7th October ever occurred..
Take some responsibility Gordon. Mass immigration has squeezed out indigenous people. There is no more room in this country.

@@skrich9690Not for long.

And yet sunak doesn't talk about this much I wonder why 🤔🤔
Anyone remember the EXACT moment we were all doomed? Remember Gordon being caught calling the woman a biggot. They just pounced on that one.
No, we were all doomed when the tory lying liars started smearing Corbyn because he was so popular and principled.

Great comment and good point. Left the debt for the Tories to sort out.
Deliberate distortion. Without defining exactly what poverty is makes the debate meaningless. Having worked in the poorest London borough for over 20 years Brown's comments do not ring true. Dickensian type poverty does not exist. Problems that need solving certainly do exist but not wholesale Dickensian poverty by any means.

This is the man who sold all the gold reserves of this country, no wonder the country is in this state.
Well, if his buddy Tony hadn't opened the borders, the country might be in a better financial position to do something about it. But if so much of the welfare bill is going to housing migrants, what on earth does he expect? Agreed that little has been done about this in the last 14 years, but Tony's ruination of the constitution and the poltiticisation of the civil service put the boot into any efforts made.
The cost of housing immigrants comes from the Overseas Aid Budget not the Welfare Budget. But I agree that this is getting out of control.
Let me guess. Donations will be made to the charity of choice, who will take 90% of the money in “administration costs” including paying consultants to go out and ring the alarm bells for the media.
