On Benefits & Proud

[ferlew]

Just flipped channels and this is on, making my blood boil.
Woman says "Find me a job where I have enough to pay all my bills, and have £500 a week left over, and I will take it" GRRRRRRRR

[Tizzi24]

I feel same as you do ferlew, that's why I won't watch it!

[sandyRoe]

We should bring back the Workhouse for the undeserving poor. Plenty of gruel and not much else would soon help them see the merits of finding employment.

£500 a week left over? i can think of one profession she may wish to consider

[tonyav]

MP maybe, aelmpvw !.

[baza]

looking forward to the court case, legal aid, slap on the wrist and have to pay back benefits at £1per week, sorted.

I find it sickening, I don't really know how anyone can defend their attitudes. I wonder how many of her 11 kids will end up working rather than claiming.

[sandyRoe]

But all this money now has its downside. In a few years when all her 11 little ones have flown the nest she'll be reduced to living on a pittance. After living so high on the hog that will come as a shock to her.
