BBC News

[Colin Wood]

Watching BBC news on SBS this am, was disgusted to see a few overweight people, or if honest, obese, complaining about the price pf food. 1 woman, complained she could not afford food, was feeding 2 dogs special treats. What is wrong with these people.

Funny that Colin
I was just talking about a similar thing last Evening with the dear Wife!
There are so many People who complain of not being able to Eat properly etc, as they dont have the Money, but most of these are either as you say Obese, well looking, and others that have big Cars or at least expensive ones!
People that go out Eating, and the likes!

I am sure that most of the Complainers are no where near the Breadline!

So as said What is wrong with them??

Makes the Blood Boil!
Cheers

Looking around here at many of the citizens makes me wonder just what is wrong with some.
They plead poverty and spend most of Saturday evening playing the 'Pokies'.

No need for any one to go hungry, just find a diet to suit your income.

Hi Colin.
I watched that on SBS, I believe they do it deliberately; pick some idiot who doesn't have a clue. Every time they interview someone about the price of peas it's the same, they always have one or two dogs, but this time I didn't see the husband with a ciggy and a bottle of beer. It must be what they first teach the so called reporters at UNI these days.

There is a push by some WOKERS to get school students to understand food values.

Quite easy really, go to the Golden arches, KFC, Burger King, Red Rooster, because that is where the biggest queues are for breakfast and dinner. Satutrday night you could not get near them for the number of drive through pick ups.
