I wouldn't be amazed as he actually did say "Look, work actually helps free people". The interview can be found on a well known video sharing website under 'Ian Duncan Smith sorting the benefits system (27May10)'

He isn't known for being diplomatic with comments, which is actually not a bad thing, I'd sooner a Minister say what he/she is actually thinking rather than be a puppet with a script to stick to and if he gets a bit quick tempered with journalists (which he does) then fine, its not a flaw rather than just his temprement, I'm sure he doesn't pursue Nazi ideology but he does have ideology's and they tend to revolve around a utopian world where 40 hour a week jobs can be found for everyone on the unemployment register and those in work no longer need to draw benefits, both elements of which are fatally flawed.

Be prepared to be amazed. He said it. 27th May 2010 on Breakfast TV. Plenty of stuff out there confirming exactly what he said.

46 grand a year and a new house. Big deal The Sun! Where have the 100s of billions ended up that went to bailing out the banks?

What is the date on that newspaper, is it from this week or does that say 2014 ?
If its this week then The Sun seem to have been fed a bollax story as the benefit cap from Oct 2014 is £500 per week max, £26K per annum to include virtually everything the family could claim for (including housing).

Oh dear. Mister Issues. Project your insecurities elsewhere.

I can also say with regards to you the ex "Flatmate"

WTF are you on about now?

Just that you're the type that feels the need to continually belittle others and have a pop at people, often calling them names. Simply because, they don't think like you do.

Arrogant, insecure little man that you are.




Give it a rest geezer.

LOL

Impossible to belittle an intellect as insubstantial as yours

Still out to belittle others again.

Do you not realise that you back up everything thing that's said about you, every time you post?

Do you not realise by your response, you highlight your own lack of self-esteem?

Your defence is to have a go at someone by saying they have an insubstantial intellect. Go on fella, attack, attack, attack. Yeah, that'll teach me. eh?



You're actually slightly embarrassing.

I simply pointed out that there was no need for the definite article and for some reason you went off on one. Quite why you felt the need to bring my ex-flatmate into the argument is beyond me. Unless it's something to do with some latent transphobia

Funny. Nice try. Still you are so impressive on these boards. Heroic at times.


Tata.
