Cutting Benefits and global warming

How fun it is on the Camino to see things from another perspective

The Tories could cut benefits at a stroke if they doubled the minimum wage. The welfare state would vanish.

They won't do it though because their mebtal. Business would go radge if they upped the low wage economy but that's what befuddles me when they don't want low paid migrant labour. They've already put moo moo on the naughty step and someone will follow when they can't get the immigration they want and need.

Back on the stomp I explained global warming by showing the world without water to someone. They hadn't appreciated there was land under the water. Being a Bible belt creationist I said God invented the world and thought it was good then God invented water. I used Scotland Arran and northern Ireland to demonstrate. A pile of dirt and a jug of water.

Once I'd shaped the dirt our creationist laughed and said, ah that's why Boris couldn't build his bridge to Ireland then.

As I added the water a lightbulb almost went on, especially when I poured too much and Arran shrunk.
