Gordon Brown - Poverty lie exposed.

Hat tip to prodicus for this gem on the PM's oft quoted lie of lifting a million children out of poverty.

I have just copied and pasted the whole post as it just shows what an amoral, venal, lying, two faced, one eye'd, devious, sleazy, spin merchant, fucking cunt the unelected Prime Minister Gordon "cyclops" Brown is. Oh and I shall call him a cunt again for good measure, the cunt.

He has finally been forced to stop claiming that his government has 'lifted a million children out of poverty' - his most oft-repeated lie - and reduced to using the true figure of 600,000.

But it depends what one means by 'poverty'.

The ASI says this, in an excellent post which is worth reading in full:

And what has happened to those who really are in abject poverty – say, those who have incomes below 40% of the median? Well, that depth of poverty is the highest in thirty years, both in terms of numbers (over five million) and as a proportion of the population. Two-fifths of those who the government defines as being in poverty are in fact in this, severe poverty.

Apparently;

What you do with facts such as these, is just ignore them completely!!!!

Take James Purnell for instance - speaking about the subject of poverty, over at the odious "Fabian Society" website.

In his deluded mindset, New Labour have won the argument with the Tories on poverty - Completely....

And "oh yeah" Purnell is confident that New Labour will win the forthcoming general election too!!!

So how are the Fabian Society gonna manage to swing that-a-one??

It amazes me that people after all these years still have to be convinced that the left are bad for them, after screwing over millions upon millions of people across this globe, pushing them into grinding poverty or even worse, death, we still think these parasites will help us out.

The are always for the poor, for keeping them poor that is.
