This is the kind of culture we have produced over many years, and one which hopefully Cameron will put a stop too.
These people are taking the piss out of every single hard working person, who went into work today. Are they alone out there? Somehow I think not.
" But Bateman, 46, whined: "People should mind their own business. We're not doing anyone any harm ". Is this guy for real? Also suprise suprise....he suffers from the " bad back bollocks ".
The system is a complete joke and these kinds of scroungers are laughing their socks off.
The law needs to change where one of them is forced and yes I mean forced to work, to pay for the lifestyle they created for themselves. Why should they be allowed to get away with having this ammount of kids, and then sit on their arses whilst the rest of us cough up for their scrounging.
I am livid when I read of stories like this, and their kids will grow up with no respect for nothing, and will expect the same kind of hot and cold benefits as the useless parents currently enjoy.
Taking the piss out of us? You bet your bottom dollar they are.....take away the benefits until one of the lazy buggers gets out and earns their money, like most of us do.
Come on Cameron....prove you are not full of shite like most politicians are.
Gnv..........
Does this kind of thing ever happen in France, that you know of?
Do they have the same kind of benefit system over there?
I presume they do not?
What happens to people in France that have this ammount of kids, and the parents have no job?
Don't hold your breath for ANY Politician of any Party to do anything about it, except maybe huff and puff............Human Rights innit ???

As a taxpayer I think it most certainly is my business.
Yes of course this has been done before, but where are the rules to say it cannot be done again and again and again......??
I will continue to post stories like this until the site owners tell me different, certainly not by another member.... ok?
The problem with stories like this one is that they anger people and make them think that all genuine benefit claimants are scroungers.
But this guy is now probably one of the most genuine cases ever. There's no way he will ever walk into a job that pays the kind of money he needs to support his family. The fact that his family grew to the size that it is was perhaps because of the benefit support. They may well have thought twice about having more and more children if every time his wage had to stretch that bit further.
A system that encourages the benefit trap at this level is seriously flawed. He's just exploited it to it's maximum. Staggs is right. It's not him thats at fault. Its the system that allows it.
:sad::sad::sad::violin:
My hearts a breaking.
:jagsatwork: The £30k a year was housing benefit, not household income.
Ah its scroungers with bad backs week and not councils thieving bastards week. One could set ones 8 day timepiece by it.
Oh shit jewel I forgot about that.
Classic and adds a tad of humor to a sorry tale.
So 'A' levels are tougher than ever then?
GCSE results aren't worked out how you'd think they should be.
say an exam is worth 40 marks and a few get 39, an A is 35 - 39, B 30 - 34 and so on. BUT if no-one gets 35 or above, an A is 34 down to say 30, a B is 25-29 and so on.
So really if everyone is dumbing down at the same time the results will still show lots of good grades!
Im hoping that everyone who sat the same GCSE that i took this year was thick so I get a good grade too!
Everyone should pay the taxes they owe ....I don't do the calculations ,and wouldn't know where to start.....not sure I'm in favour of exploiting loopholes though...but if it's within the law I can only take a moral position
No different to these shocking figures either...
Incapacity benefit has gone through the roof in recent years....it is so easy to blame your back and then not work for years.
I know of some people who have this syndrome too. It is usually called " lazy bugger syndrome ". No known cure at all and is usually brought on by a bout of something called work.
