Your basically knocking someone for being in the same job and house for over 30 years, and circumstances beyond his control inflating the value of his house and pension.
My house value, savings, and various pension funds add up to just over a million pounds, but strangely enough, I don’t feel like a millionaire...

No I am not knocking him for that at all - rubbish.
I am knocking him because he professes to care about the poor but has a salary over 5 times the average UK Salary. The man is a joke, has been all his life, supporting the wrong side, policies which would weaken the UK.

It is the jobs lost not the mines closed that is the important metric. You may have small mines that employ a small number of mines for example.
If you are claiming facts, it is very useful to cite your sources. I am afraid "Google is my source" is not good enough

Nicely done - quote from a source that is Anti-Tory, pro Labour, jeez, the shock, I got to lie down.

The Misinformation king, accusing others of being misled, so hilarious.
The EU is not a safety net and never has been - and for the 1928384858558th time, the EU does use it's own funds, it's not their money to do any funding with, you can comprehend can't you and understand that we, are a massive net contributor, so what we pay to them, we do not get back, we get some back so in essence that is OUR money they have been handing back, only they have the gall to inform us what our money should be spent on.
