I am a hypocrite

This weekend: I have applauded the win of an underdog, and yet decried the win of another..

I have empathised with peace and reconciliation, and yet sought conflict.

I have talked of and asked for grace and mercy and yet when I see grace in action I call it a travesty!

And I have watched a documentary about massive injustice (Israel and Palenstine) and then gotten more involved in the injustice of X factor..

I am a hypocrite.

What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

Your vocabulary aged 5 is half what it is for a rich kid if you are in the bottom ten percent of income. Housing tenure stats are even worse. "Only 4 per cent of those of working age living in social housing have degrees, and nearly half have no or only low qualifications. Only half of men and 42 per cent of women of working age living in social housing are in paid work, compared with 89 per cent of men and 81 per cent of women in households with a mortgage." Social housing: by its nature, is grouped (london people ignore this, you are the freaks not the norm). That means that we have allowed ghettoes of poverty and low attainment (not just in a SATS way either). Now it would be easy, and some daft Tory has already done it, to pin this on
