I don't know the answer to this as most of our politicians are self-centred with their off shore tax havens etc. I think a lot of us do care about each other but its getting harder here in the U.K as so many people are below the poverty line and homeless. I live in a small seaside town and am not from here (northern Ireland) but the relentless heartlessness of the U.K government is hard to withstand knowing that some child somewhere is living in a dangerous property at fire risk; that the national health service is being run down so that some private company can take over -- the list of heartlessness goes on forever and it grinds you down and seriously I don't know how to help as the help that is needed is just money. I am 70 y.old and have never lived through such discouraging and dangerous times I support a charity by sending money which I get by doing peoples laundry, shopping and ironing, but its a drop in hte ocean compared to what is needed.
