The article is about prime minister David Cameron who has issued a plan to help trouble families throughout the UK. These ‘Troubleshooters’ as they are called in the article would help families with problems such as addiction, crime, poor health and unemployment. In total there will be a sum of £448m put into this plan to help those families in guiding them and perhaps get rid of their problems. David Cameron says the problems won’t necessarily lie in the help itself but in getting them to accept the help. He says when the eventually accept the help ‘work wonders’.
I think this plan is quite a good idea. You see something similar here for families with children who are troublesome but you don’t see it a lot for addiction and unemployment. In what degree this will be effective needs to be carefully looked at of course since we’re talking about a huge amount of money here. And indeed, as the PM already said, the problem is not that the help won’t be sufficient, it’s if the help will be accepted by them. Often do you see troubled families who simply turn down the offer because of various reasons like pride. All in all I think it is definitely worth to give a shot.
