Benefit cheats

Quote by Dirtygirly
Yup... I pay the stair cleaner and the gardener in cash. Whether they declare that to the taxman is their business. I would suspect not but I could be wrong.
You have a cleaner who just does stairs !?
Having read some of these postings again, it makes me feel so lucky to be where I am today, relatively secure(but you never know whats around the corner, as a lot are now finding out)
I would probably do just about anything to keep my family fed and clothed, even if it meant claiming WFTC and doing cash in hand jobs as well, alot do, just to keep the wolf from the door.

Yeah... I live in a tenement with fifteen other flats and I go round banging on doors asking them for per fortnight to have the stair cleaned! :mrgreen:
And believe me... it's absolutely not as simple as it sounds!

Course i forgot you live in Burgh. The needles alone must take a while :-)
We are in a recession caused by banking fraud.
We live in a country where the "honest" person does not declare part of their earnings to the revenue (again, a lack of honesty) (to say the least)
Other honest people pay others to work and care not whether they declare same.
The amount of tax and other fraud costs this country several billion pounds every year (probably over 10 billion) (the whole euro tax evasion racket is estimated to be worth E100 billion each year !)
Politicians invent town houses to claim expenses...
I could go on for quite a while about how "honest" people sneer at others while trousering vast amounts of cash.
Oh, and the benefit cheat system cost about 3 billion pounds.....in 2006....
Some of the largest benefit fraud cases involved people who are very well-off, working full-time, and claiming benefits....not benefit fraud as such, but large scale criminal fraud, well planned. Crime, pure and simple.
So, while the crooks employ accountants, solicitors and other advisors to enjoy a benefit-theft good lifestyle, the really needy get to fill-in 80 page questionnaires of incomprehensible gibberish to get...............................................

Benefit fraud gaining £50,000 over 6 years - sentence: likely to be imprisonment.
Losing £28,000,000,000 in one year - sentence: £650,000 pa pension.
Moral: It pays to be rich because the system doesn't seem to be too bothered chasing people at the top.
I'm not condoning benefit fraud, but I get more worked up about the missing £28 billion, followed by the £650 thousand every year, than I do by the odd £50 thousand.
It's a funny old world isn't it.

I'm not sure I can sit down without damaging myself even more 'cos I think something stiff's been shoved up me arse and it certainly wasn't a drink.
How the bank bail outs didn't sort out the little details of excessive pensions, bonuses for failure, refusal to lend money and increased house repossession before our money was handed over seems to be a slight oversight on the the part of the people that take money out of my wages every week.
At the moment, benefit fraud pales into insignificance.

Errrr...you don't still think that the "bail-out" was to protect ordinary people do you ?
The bail-out was to protect all the lords and ladies from having to find other sidelines !
The mortgage repos' do not really matter....some will buy the auctioned properties and get rich (they auction them now after another little 20th century fiddle where the banks etc "sold" rep'oed properties to their employees for very little) (being crooked goes back a long time for the banks).
Another little side-effect is that the gov will now (as part owners) have access to the banks records....funnily enough, legislation just passed-into law makes sharing info between government departments and agencies legal....

I TOTALLY agree with you Northwest couple
how on earthcan one justify a pension for more than half a million a year form the age of fifty when he single handedly managed to make us loose so much money...
the repercussion is that small business like us can no longer turn to the banks for help. But the icing on the cake that absolute fr&%4 w%$7er is having his pension paid by all the bank charges we had to through his way because of a little overisght of 10 pounds over your overdraft limit.... and now they are asking us to give the bank some money for them to survive, so that they can charge us more ( Between £25,00 for an automated letter, stating that you are over your overdraft limit!!!!!)
If he does not want to give the money back bring back the death sentence especially for him!!!!!
alternatively strip him naked and send him oiled and shaved into a tribe of nymphomaniac over endowed gay gang and let him have it until he asks to give the money back!!!! mind you he might actually enjoy it????????
after reflection bring back the death penalty!!!
anyway enough about that! £50 000 pounds fraud shame on them since they were probably taking the money from someone who is really deasbled and needed the care!!!!
Sorry I got carried away but that story drives me NUTS!!!
