Starving the British Children: Fourth World Here We Come! By Richard Miller (Europe)
The Fourth World concept is not used much today, but was once used to describe "the most underdeveloped, poverty-stricken, and marginalized regions and populations of the world":
Perhaps the concept of a Fourth World will find new application as Britain continues its collapse. As Professor Danny Dorling of the University of Oxford has noted: "
"Children's lives in the UK are changing.
They are becoming shorter in height. More of them are going hungry than they were a few years ago. Recently, more have died each year than they did a few years ago. Increased poverty, more destitution and the effects of ongoing austerity are the clear culprits." This child poverty is not seen to the same relative level anywhere else in the world, with the poorest fifth of households in the Britain being poorer than the poorest fifth in most of Eastern Europe.
This is one of the clearest signs of a nation in serious decline, as poverty and the cost-of-living crisis, in general, is resulting in children often having to go to school hungry and perhaps not even having lunches. As a stop gap measure, school meals, even food left over from restaurants, would be a help, but obviously the larger social problems have to be addressed. But, as always, the children suffer.
