"Devastating UNICEF report blames family breakdown for giving British children the worst quality of life in the affluent West."
(Front page headline from
Daily Mail 14 February 2007.)
My comments
I blame the Welfare State, and the interventionist socialist ideology behind it, for giving British children (and many adults, including me) a terrible quality of life. And what is ‘affluent’ supposed to mean, when the vast majority of the population is sending their children to state schools, and exposing their children and themselves to the tender mercies of the NHS?
