The benefit system,in a perfect world,should provide support and assistance for people who for whatever reason are unable to support themsleves to a basic level.
Of course there are workshy people,there always have been and you find them in ant society throughout the world.
But the benefit system is about more than the so called workshy,its about genuinly sick and disabled people,vulnerable children and pensioners and those who genuinlt cant help them selves.
There is a hidden underclass of mentally disrurbed people whi have been released into care in the community who need protection.
Of course we can all name a disabled person who works,someone who has no interest in work,a scrounging asylum seeker,a feckless single mum,but i believe they are an exception and this shouldnt lead to vigilantes shopping people for a few hunderd quid.
In fact im sure the goverment and authories are well aware of the situation regarding Disability people onto this particular benefit has been largely responsible for the success of this tory goverment in bringing down the unemployment rate
I didn't mean it that way, just that if this particular person is taking the piss that there is a way to stop it, stop getting annoyed about it, and get a free shopping trip too

the government is labour by the way!!
Libra, I think that's what they meant by buck the trend, that you weren't claiming :cheers:
We obviously come from different parts of the country and different people i know would frown upon informing on others just so they could get their hands on a few hundred quid............if thats what turns you on hey enjoy it.
I,m well aware of the politics of the current goverment,slightly to the right of the last Thatcher use of Tory obviously went straight over your called irony
