The post you are reporting:
Sadly many local and small time politicians fail to recognise some of the realities of life. Middle ground people, like me, don't fall into either the "very well off" category or the "poverty trap" category - you know, the band of society that every shade of politician shafts because we are an easy target, working hard and progressing, paying our way, raising our families, paying our taxes and rarely placing a strain on society in any respect at all but funding the people who do . We cannot afford the very expensive activities and do not, quite rightly, expect top-ups or handouts to supplement ourselves. Yes, we make choices, but it has to be recognised that choices are limited by money. If sport were to be truly equal-opportunity participation would not be dependent on peoples incomes.
