Panorama: Britain's Child Beggars

Lol at the end, "Britain's forgotten Children"

Are you sure?

Who gives a **** whose children they are or what country they come from, they are children being exploited, if you are really so sickeningly racist and bigoted that you will ignore the needs of a child because of the country on their birth certificate, god help us if anyone with similar views ever gets a real say in politics.

Did your face turn red when you wrote that? Get back in your pram.

Why should it be our problem? **** Them all off just like the rest of Europe are doing.

Thank you for solidifying my opinion that whatever these "foreigners" do, born and bread Brits can be 10 times as bad.

Also yes I did get angry, angry because you offend me and everything I consider an important part of being British.

Did you watch this program? Do you not realize that these people are no good?

Born and Brits? don't Sterotype I don't speak for everyone.
 
Hurry up iPlayer for goodness sake... 'Available soon after', well it's been 37 minutes since it was broadcasted, and I'm still waiting :(

Oh man, if you have any common sense you'll know that 1 program doesn't mean it's covered everything.

Have an open mind, dig a little deeper and research the subject - maybe get a better understanding of it all.

Then make an informed opinion.

I agree with the consensus that it is wrong to send children out to beg, but you're posts don't help but paint a bad picture of us fellow brits.

Well I am sorry you feel that way about what I've wrote, I bet you've read worse?

Do a bit of digging? I think it's well documented all over the World let alone Europe what these people are really like. Whatever you watch/read I don't think It gets any better.

But like I said earlier, gonna stay out these threads from now on.

So do what you gotta do ;)
 
I know plenty of people from the village and surprisingly not one of them are 'loyalists' or have a political stance at all. Can't categorise the whole place as loyalist. Also, did the news report literally use the word 'loyalist' or are you just assuming this since they came from that area?

Oh I know its silly to actually label people just because of where they are fun (bad as the whole conflict) and I was repeating the reported media from the time a few years ago. But the point was the people doing the social cleansing identified as loyalist in the violence against the community at the time.

I didn't mean to imply that everyone who identifies as loyalist is into the violence of the time, just happened that the did at that time.

Thats cool man, just don't like labelling what not. :)
 
Should be and interesting and depressing watch, in my village and local town an old woman, man in his 30s and woman in her 30s all sell the Big Issue, next step up from begging they hang around M&S putting on this poor face and poor grasp of the English language and one was hanging around right near a cash machine in my village.

Selling the big issue isn't the same as begging - they're selling a product. It partly relies on guilt but in reality a big issue seller isn't doing anything more or less than the average pester you for a direct debit charity chugger does - in both instances part of the money from the sale goes directly to them. IMO the over confident annoying student types trying to get you to sign up for a monthly DD to Amnesty international or whatever are more annoying.
 
Well that was quite upsetting... poor kids. It seems as though the mothers are unsurprisingly being pushed into it also :(

Had to turn it off, was boiling my blood, scum after scum, cheek to beg then stole a head scarf from a shop, why would anyone be soft enough to give money to them.

Because the people giving money didn't see them steal? :confused:

Or do you think because we've seen one steal something you think we need to tar them all with that brush and not give them money to 'them' because they steal?
