I caught a glimpse of this on the TV last week but switched over because I found it so offensive. Leaving aside the obvious free-loading aspect of this, does anybody know what Mr Rolfe is going to do when he loses his looks ?

//so is a TV station that gives this idiot a platform for his stupidity, and a society that loves being made angry by watching it.// His stupidity has no effect on him - he wants no responsibili ty and has none. The people paying for him and his brood have every right to know what their money is being spent on - and they have every right to be angry when they discover it...

Mamy...I don't pretend to be an expert in the affairs of the heart but I would have thought that physical attraction has to play some part, at least, in the sexual activities of this man and his many women. Do people willingly go to bed with someone like this who appears to have no redeeming features ? Perhaps they do ! It just seems to me to be a bit odd. Imagine what his total would have been if he looked like George Clooney ( substitute any other dish of your choice here )
Anyway, my question was somewhat tongue in cheek.

I respectfully refer you back to my thoughts on the subject.

I entirely agree - but your point was based on the gentleman's perceived attraction to the opposite sex. My point was, it's not necessary.

andy-hughes, you're getting confused. You've apologised to me for inadvertently ascribing my post to Mikey - but quoted something he said. Mikey said he switched over, but I have no idea who switched over because they got one of their 'heads'. It wasn't me. I didn't see the programme you're talking about at all. However, I would say that highlighting this behaviour is neither nasty nor wrong. You're surely not expecting the tax-payer to respect these people?
As for the power of the media, I refer you to Ludwig's post at 16:19.
Mikey, I think sqad is right. It's any port in a storm. That said, the girls are spoilt for choice between you two. ;o)

I didn't see the programme (I deliberately don't watch hate bait programmes) but I'm aware of what you are talking about. I think all the moral outrage and sniping about his looks is largely irrelevant, I also think the majority of people claiming benefits think he's a feckless cheeky sod, what can be done about him whilst still maintaining rules which are fair to the majority of families / single parents? No idea, not a lot I suspect. You certainly can't go around carting people's kids off into care though, and anyone who thinks you can or should is heading for a social apocalypse where the poor have no rights.
I think the man is the very worst kind of individual, self entitled, fecless and stupid, and i'm not thrilled my taxes pay for that, I'd rather they paid for something more worthy, but sometimes in the need to be fair to all you have to have rules flexible enough for the odd horror to take advantage of, and this is what he is, an odd horror. He's not representative of most people, and thus he's not sufficient reason to change rules which will have a detrimental effect against poor people or benefit claimants in general.
