What are the causes of Britain's broken society? Are they
- High crime rates
- Drug abuse
- Alcoholism
- Gambling addiction
- Divorce
- Cohabitation
- One parent families
- Debt
- Television
- A lack of religious beliefs and teaching
- Poor education
- The yob culture
- Overcrowding
- Multiculturalism
What do you think? Please let me know.
A couple of statistics I came across recently are
"Half of unmarried couples separate by their child's fifth birthday. One in 12
married couples separate by their child's fifth birthday." David Cameron
Britian's broken society costs the country £102 b a year:
Family breakdown £24 b
Educational underachievement £18 b
Crime £60 b
Personal debt is now at a total of £1.38 trillion in the UK. The average debt of each family is £54, 452. 7 - 9 million people say that they have a serious problem with debt.
At least the Conservative party is trying to address these issues. Gordon Brown, like is predecessor Tony Blair, seems happy to send us further into debt.
