ITV Daybreak do you deliberately wind up the working people in this country?

[BadFish]

Yes, that's exactly what we're saying. Nor should they eat sweets, drink alcohol or smoke; in fact all their money should be spent on uplifting literature, clothing and fresh food - which being unemployed they'll have time to cook properly.

...... not to mention read difficult Russian literature.

Don't you just love it as your preparing for another full days work?

I don't know why people subject themselves to media like the sun or day time television shows, they serve nothing then to well up anger and prejudices amongst the uneducated.

benifits only account for something like less than 10% of the countrys budget, what annoys me more is when we send millions of aid to a country i have never heard of.

Perhaps that says just as much about your general knowledge as it does about the governments overseas aid programme?

Obviously, once you become poor, you should flog your flatscreen telly down the pub, and then spend weeks scouring flytipping sites for a small-screened, bulky black & white old school telly - or face the wrath of Lenny and his ilk.

The woman in this particular story is off sick, as well, with depression.

How big do you think the aid budget is?

I do like the bit where she says "contraception doesn't work" and that the doctors have told her she's "super fertile". How about abstaining then? Or get him to have the chop - that can be done on the NHS now? The only thing these people do is pollute the gene pool.

What I love most about these people is that they genuinely feel hard done by, hence the need to go on national TV to complain about their lot. I shall work all the harder today to get them the 4 bedroom property they deserve and long for.

While budgets are being slashed in this country ANY amount is too big.

She probably is depressed, being holed up in a one bedroom flat with five kids. Perhaps the lazy bitch should get a job and attempt to improve her/their life.

Give her £86 then.

 

[spring hall convert]

The answer to the OP is yes, as righteous indignation sells.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Give her £86 then.

I imagine they do? Presumably the rest is Child Tax Credit and Child Benefit?

 

[Lokki 7]

While budgets are being slashed in this country ANY amount is too big.

The aid budget is largely a political tool used to grease defence deals and trade agreements. As such it probably creates more national wealth overall than it costs.

How can we ever straighten out this country and pay benefits for the people who really deserve it. If Labour get their way they would like to make it a human right.

Well we all know what would could happen here. More abuse of the system.
