http://www.theguardian.com/politics...benefits-cards-cash-payments?CMP=share_btn_fb Looks like they are booting the boot into those who are poor and going through a hard time from the off.. This is surely going against personal freedom of choice.. It will be interesting how they decide who has bad habits...Very slippery slope in my opinion..
A compliance officer came and visited us today mate, to make sure Lollie was as still disabled as before. He was in our house for 5 mins and legged it when I asked if he had brought a miracle cure for her. He got the message big style and assured me that the real disabled will be looked after by this government..WTF..
I wonder how many of the high earners have had knocks on the door to ask if they are paying their full quota of tax?
Exactly.. The sad part was, the guy was quite likeable but fell apart when he saw bed bound Lollie. I did say to him 'welcome to the real world' but he just shambled more after that. If only it had been David Miliband a week ago..
They really are thick as ****. Those who know how to fiddle the benefits system always will do. FFS, there's blokes in one of our local WMC's who actually charge people for filling in their claim forms. The only people who get punished when there's a clampdown on fraud are the ones who are genuinely entitled. IDS is a ****ing evil bastard.
And a failure thats got lucky again.. Southern twats have voted them in again, lets see how they handle it when the **** hits the fan..
There are some genuine people with difficult jobs and, of course, there are the arseholes, jobsworths and hitlers. Seems like he was one of the decent ones. I wouldn`t be at all surprised though if someone doesn`t have a go at wiping out Iain Duncan Smith. That man is evil. edit : beat me to it Billy.
Well indeed mate. Unfortunately, he's in one of the most dangerous positions a failed politician can be.
Agree.. Anyone with a face that looks like discarded plumbers putty and eyes like a woodpeckers first attempt has to be watched..
I used to work in Croydon near the main Home Office immigration centre. The government (last Labour lot) started giving immigrant applicants vouchers so they could buy food and get somewhere to stay. The shops were full of them trying to buy designer clothes instead! You can never get this one right...
Completely different thing fella. Those folk have paid **** all in whilst some poor **** who's grafted & paid into the British system are the first ones to get kicked in the balls.
So what did they eat and where did they stay after replicating Africa's version of George Clooney? Was it a paralytic lad or lass to drunk to realise their apeism, shagged of their dignity and then heads down in a Azalea bush for our war torn immigrant heroes?
I agree to this in a certain respect and have actually raised it myself. Why should work shy scumbags be sat in Yates all day pissing their benefits up the wall and living on takeaways whilst people are out all day grafting? Boils my piss. Work shy spongers, criminals and druggies shouldnt get a penny in cash. Pre paid card where you can't buy alcohol or cigarettes and you can't draw cash. You can use in it shops for food, clothing and other amenities. Money is earned in my eyes.
Don't know the ins and outs of this but I don't believe in drinking unless you have money you've earned in your pocket. So in principle I completely agree with it. Why should tax payers pay for people to drink? I agree the top end need taxing as well but I don't think that means this is wrong. The Tories could give everyone in the UK a free ice cream at the moment and they'd be accused of promoting obesity and attempting genocide of the lactose intolerant.
My old man Labour his entire life always believed nobody on benifits should ever get more money than someone who did 40hrs graft.
In York the local lasses all seem to be pregnant and whinging about getting a better house.. Sad society we live in but the sad part is in York central, the Poles who never seem to work as well have the glorious (if thats what you can call them), new build apartments..
I must admit Joe the Poles around this area graft like hell and are probably the most friendly people I know, everybody with common sense would love to see benifits going to the people who deserve them and most wouldn't care how much they got if they needed it.
Because folk like that will always know how to by-pass the system mate. Be careful what you wish for, you might find yourself unable to work one day.
