When did poverty porn become such a huge TV attraction? It seems every day (usually on channel 5), some massively misinformed show is poking fun at a family of under privileged people (I reiterate, people, not dirt) who quite evidently aren't aware that the show is not helping them, but rather, it's ridiculing them.

Divide and rule mate. Alienating the poor from the even-more-poor is one of many ways these shitbags do that.

A person wants to better himself (which is apparently a crime) and buys a second home for rental purposes, they advertise and applications come in, the applicants finances check out and they can afford it or THE STATE PAYS THEIR RENT TO THEM FOR THE EXPRESS REASON OF HOUSING THEM. In 95% of eviction cases the landlord receives very little money because the tenants know their rights and as a result remain in the property long after they have defaulted. Not only does the landlord lose the rental income they INCUR MORTGAGE PAYMENTS THEMSELF AND ASSOSIATED COSTS to reclaim their own property, the average amount of time it takes to this is 11 months, the average loss to a landlord with costs is £8,800. Before a High Court Writ is issued the defendant will have received numerous letters telling them the serious nature of their default and warning them of the consequences. Explain why a person who has either had the money paid to them BY THE STATE for their rent and spent the cash elsewhere or failed to pay rent they agreed in good faith should feel justified to remain in that property. Do you think everyone should just be given a place to live for free, does nobody have to work for a living to get the finer things in life, is it the states responsibility to house and feed you just because you were born here? And what do you have to say to the landlord who is now massively out of pocket while still having a mortgage and their own kids to feed.

Well this thread took a sharp turn. I don't see how the post you quoted relates to what you're mentioning.

I tried cracking one off to "Can't Pay, Won't Pay" but those fat bailiffs didn't do much for me. I still prefer sex porn.*

There's a number of reality TV programs that I think should not be on anything to do with bailiffs, any police, any benefits type programmes the companies that are pumping them out are making money out of peoples misery and the police ones are just wrong the police should do there job instead of playing to the camera. They show people on the police ones that can ruin the individuals lives years after they have been on this then creates an ever decreasing circle of crime leading to more crime as no one will employ or go near anyone on these programmes. But all the people who watch them are to blame because if people didn't watch them they would not make them

You're best off starting a thread on that subject if it's bothering you. Or better still writing to the Landlords' Association or your MP. As opposed to randomly responding to an unrelated post on a thread about something else

I do find it slightly amusing that quite a lot of these so-called 'under-privileged' people on these TV shows all seem to have decent cars, TVs, phones, audio systems et sic porro.

I've got a lot of good friends from the north east and maybe 2 years ago they were going do that documentary 'benefit street' there. Every time the showed up to do something the lads would interrupt everything they did as it obviously showed them in a bad light.

On another note bare with me for this..
.. Today I was out with my niece and uncles (who aren't from stoke) playing football over the fields then took a walk up this bank, my niece ran up this hill and she was knackered and said "I need a drink" which I hadn't got so I said "we'll go back in a minute get you one". But being the 5 year old she is she kept on and on about this drink.
There was another family and the mum said "I've got a drink she can have here" and she'd got a bottle of water in a cool bag. Unoped of course and she gave it to my niece. Now I know that sounds like absolutely nothing but just that little bit of kindness has made my day.
I'm not saying stoke is a shithole or poverty stricken but we're far from a rich city. my uncle who lives down south said "is that what people are like around here they'd never do that at home" (meaning down south) and I smiled and thought about it. I absolutely love stoke on trent and stokies. We haven't got a lot but what we have got we'll give to help someone. you don't get that many places/people like we have here. I absolutely love it!
