A minimum wage job based on 40 hours per week equals an annual salary of £12k a year. Not great but for generally unskilled work, plus tax credits if you have kids etc, it's better than sponging off the state, if you have a bit of pride in you of course.

If our bone idle layabouts can't be d getting off their backsides to work for that then they cant complain when Petr Polak does.

The next generation of local scroungers is currently being trundled round Leigh in buggies by their bone idle parents and grandparents.

Greggs dummy in its face, mum wearing all her jewellery at once and a fag in each hand screaming at siblings 'Chantella-Brody - get here now you f***** little s*** or I'll.............." whilst Dad/This weeks uncle/pimp rides his mountain bike behind glaring at folk and spitting every few seconds.

Makes you proud to be a Leyther doesn't it!!!

In fairness you see them in most towns, but it does generally stop me from going into Leigh if I can help it.

Same here. I like to have a degree of pride in my home town....so much so that I avoid the place as I every time I go, it seems to have dropped a notch.
