...and theres me thinking you would just give everything to them for free

now to be serious for a minute I'm thinking of a way to find one of em an easy job so when the L.S.V.find and dismiss the steward who verbally abused that poor lady who wrote to the reporter last week they can take his place cos they only have to be half fit to do that job

Well, it was almost a minute

I am not a Con-Demed fan either but the fact that they are going to make it that people will not be better off claiming than working has to be a good thing as long as its aimed at those that are work shy .The thing that annoys me immensely is those that know how to work the system and end up being better off than the hard working people ie when on benefits you don't pay for anything unlike people that work who usually pay for all the services ,there's steam coming out of my ears as i type

What i don't understand however is the fact that a person earning over 42,000 will not be able to get child benefit but if 2 people from same family earn say 38,000 each meaning 76,000 coming into the household they can

The cost involved in gathering everyones salaries and constant changes would be a costly adminstrative nightmare, which would make it a waste of time. The number of families this will affect 'unfairly' I would say is very very small, and it has already been stated that some other help would be forthcoming to stay at home mums.

that's all very well but there aren't any jobs for the people who will get kicked off to take are there cos they have all been taken by the bloody poles

There are people who try very hard to get a job and then there are those that have no intention whatsoever of going to work and its these people who need a very large and very hard kick up the ar@e ,too many folk know how to cheat their way onto incapacity benefit so kick um off it i say ,if they are fit for work ,its amazing how the walking stick comes out when they are getting a revue ,its all too easy to kid

According to her.... Be careful of making libellous statements Lally.

I'm no Tory (or Lib Dem either), but so far I am liking what they are trying to do so far tbh.

Good on em. Get after the lazy scrotes that play the system.

I know a few who claim disability benefit and there`s nowt wrong with em......why should these people get extra money and sit on their backsides while others have to work, the people who are claiming the top benefits (fraudulently) are usually better off than people who work their knackers off for a living.
Catch em and make em repay all the extra money they have had over the years I say.

Well contact the relevant agency and let them investigate their claims.
