300,000 people live in poverty - just try it for a day Bertie

Mind I'm not sure about this study, sure there's the members of the trabeling community that appear to fit the bill. But the poor are invisible. Your don't see their lack of heat or their lack of food. You might see their lack of clothes for mental or fashion reasons. If there are that many people here in poverty I think it's because of the inability to rise above it. Just like Neitsche proposed and he failed like Ireland is flailing.

The boy racers still pedalate unmuffled, the hoodies still buy from Pandit and Irelands real poverty goes unmentioned. Any sense of Nationhood, spirit of culture and history and dread to say it ethnicity is unmoneyed and unspoken for except in tones of flagelation.

10% of children are in poverty but with the other basic necessities factored in what would the percentage be then?
