Poverty is different in all countries , you can be in the UK and get your rent paid , council tax paid , get given cash , they will have smart phones , tv flat screens , dental paid , prescriptions paid and many other benefits like free school meals , and food banks , or you look at Philippines where i have a lot of friends , they get nothing , if you don`t have a job you don`t eat , you only cook by finding wood to burn , when they had a typhoon and it pulled their house down or roof off they got told they can have £50 but when they went to claim there was no cash and you had to live with a hole in your roof until you come up with the money to fix , thats poverty , every meal can be a bowl of rice with some fish paste to get a flavor or you miss a meal for a day or 2 so your kids get food , when they hear what poverty is here in UK they think i am lying , then they realise i am not .
