poverty ...a bit more

Fifty years ago, Ken Loach was the young director of Cathy Come Home, a BBC Play for Today, filmed in documentary style and watched by 12 million. Cathy, her lorry driver husband, and two children, live happily in a flat. He has an accident and loses his job, so they move to lodgings, a caravan, a hostel. Cathy becomes a single parent and her children become homeless. Social workers finally take the children into care. The public were moved and enraged.

this was repeated recently and l want to find the correct time to watch having recorded the programme from TV

World keeps on hurting
hurting those vulnerable
those experiencing hardship
those unable too..
benefit claimant so often the case for reprisals and scorn
Rejected and hurt . . powerless

The poverty l know and have witnessed, its conditional

By that l mean  goes with where you came from, The journey taken

 A role played, the situation finds oneself in, Circumstances around that,

Then illness visits, unemployment arrives.

You’re in the system and it grips person, that family, the locality.

Nothing to do with the persona and any failings they reflect
