Jools Lee has recently been the Friday Poet on Steven Bumfrey's Radio Norfolk show. Lee is otherwise known, thanks to his other role delivering lunches, as the Bard of the Baguette, the Poet of the Pastry, and the Songsmith of the Sandwich. Phew Words from a Welshman illustrates Lee's talent and range in printed form. Lee's verse is alive with his pleasure in the crackle and texture of language, and the same voice which has entertained Norfolk's radio audience can now be enjoyed on the page. Lee has a wide range, and poems treat a variety of topics, from comical and affectionate satires to calmer, more meditative, reflections on love and family relationships. Whatever Lee's subjects, his confections will always slip down in a moment and leave you feeling amused, surprised, or delighted - and sometimes all three.

Описание: Who are those at the bottom of society? There has been much discussion in recent years, on both Left and Right, about the existence of an alleged 'underclass' in both Britain and the USA. It has been claimed this group lives outside the mainstream of society, is characterised by crime, suffers from long-term unemployment and single parenthood, and is alienated from its core values. John Welshman shows that there have always been concerns about an 'underclass', whether constructed as the 'social residuum' of the 1880s, the 'problem family' of the 1950s or the 'cycle of deprivation' of the 1970s. There are marked differences between these concepts, but also striking continuities. Indeed a concern with an 'underclass' has in many ways existed as long as an interest in poverty itself. This book is the first to look systematically at the question, providing new insights into contemporary debates about behaviour, poverty and welfare reform. This new edition of the pioneering text has been updated throughout and includes brand new chapters on 'Problem Families' and New Labour as well as 'Troubled Families' and the Coalition Government. It is a seminal work for anyone interested in the social history of Britain and the Welfare State.
