Now tell me that is not poverty.
That's definitely not typical of Spain. Where in Spain are you anyway?

Yes it is. Those tourist places are not typical of Spain. You have to go out of there and head inland and it is totally different.

Erm, no harm but i'm born and bread here you picked piccies from like the worse houses in NI in rural Spain that is like a luxury and have you seen the state of the houses in Glasgow?

Where I am in the rural areas houses are really bad and people are in extreme poverty they have drop off points for food and stuff. The housing bang went nuts here theres loads and loads of skeltons of houses here aswell not built. Northern Ireland is a million times better.

Not much better. Maybe your idea of poverty is different to me.

its like a luxury to them? can u not see that these belfast houses look 10 times poorer than the spanish house you picked? and what do you expect me to do? you pick the worst spanish houses, i pick the worst Irish houses to compare. and really after driving around belfast with street view it seems like at least half of Belfast looks that bad.
