No ... just wondering where this Utopia is !!!!
You seem to denigrate Britain so much but dont actually name your utopian country -
a country which supports people if they are ill, and
supports people if they are unemployed (and also supports them if they refuse to find work !), and
provides universal health care (even to people who have, and continue, to make themselves "ill" (druggies, alcoholics, fatties etc), and
provides reasonable prisons for those who have broken the law, and
provides true democratic process (which even you could enter !), and
has a free press (which even you could manipulate as much as anyone else !
Please, please tell me where this better utopia that you know of is !!! LOL

yes..on the other side of the world..and I'm living it for that very reason. Everything the UK has got but plenty of sunshine..the money buys twice as much..the social security net is far better.
..not one single bank collapsed...and why...because the government has such strict laws they can never get away with what UK, USA and Irish banks did (and consequently the Oz banks make record profits in the billions)..
the country avoided the 2008 financial meltdown and why ..the OECD, World Bank. Moodys etc all agree..the then PM gave every single welfare recipient (about 8 million people out of 23M) $2000 each with the order to spend spend spend..(they all got their flat screen TVs far cheaper than rioting) and tens of thousands of jobs not only saved..they were created !!
And reading history I see it elected the world's first socialist PM ( in 1900 ) and have carried on likewise since..
paradise !!! (you only have to watch Home & Away..it's no exageration ! )
(there's always somewhere better of course-in New Zealand they get even better welfare benefits!!)

Good to see ITK,the forum clown managing to annoy just about everybody on the thread
Those of us who do travel the world could name quite a few countries with generous welfare systems.But of course as her world view is formed by reading The Sun,and as a trip out is a short hop away she's hardly likely to learn enough about anything to influence the debate in her favour!
Anyway today I visited Belgium and France,both of which have generous benefit systems,in fact most of western europe is more generous than us.Even today Eire pays out more than us on average for claimants.
Further afield Dubai is an interesting example.They have no oil,but most live lazily with state help.There are plenty more examples,but the point has now been made.
Carry on insulting,and we'll carry on laughing
