I have to say, as the sister of someone with a severe, life threatening, chronic illness, who had had to jump through hoops and be made to feel like a piece of dirt, in order to claim and receive the Incapacity Benefit she needs to live on, I have to say, Peanut, I support your argument all the way through this thread.

Cherrytree my point all along is that people like you have mentioned above should get the benefit and to be honest more than they do.
I would like to see the genuine scroungers and I make no bones about it, there are loads out there, taken to task. I would like to see the ones than can work go back to work, and the people who cannot work, get the benefits they ARE entitled too. And a better rate than they do at the moment. cool

funnily enough...somewhere in another universe... I was just partaking in a thread extoling the virtues, or not, of rimming the piled-arse.
is that a condition worthy of benefit?

It's funny how the British Press, run by multinational companies and multi-millionaires who arrange their finances so they pay little or no tax are so silent about financial crimes committed by multinational companies and multi-millionaires. The ex-owner of the Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph is now in clink in the US for fraud. Back here we put him in the House of Lords.
It's even funnier how the British public dance to the Press's tune so easily. As Peanut and Splendid said, the poor are an easy target. Start cracking down on the rich first and hear them squeal.
looks like a few different views lol
Does anyone know where they are getting this casual work as I need to find some for the next month and can't find anything anywhere?
I don't think anyone really minds if someone who is not working for some good reason earns the odd few £ occasionally here and there. I do mean only the odd £ though not a second bloody income like some.
An acquaintance of mine has some severe disabilities but is able to drive using an adapted car I know that he took his pensioner neighbours to Gatwick for a flight and collected them to which he got a £100. he will do that sort of thing every now and then. I dont have a problem with this.
I really do mind if people are earning money and claiming benefits illegally! Firstly, what sort of example are they setting for others in that family? Is cheating acceptable?
Then who is paying for these cheats? Well I am, and so are other benefit claimants who don't really get enough to live on.
If a person is claiming benefits and it's been assessed as to that persons need then that's it. If they're disabled in any way then DLA or AA is payable, and the rates are actually quite good. If they're 'on the sick' and claiming Incapacity Benefit then this is only transient and hopefully the person will recover and return to work in the near future.
I think the benefit system could be improved, but I'd hate to be involved in sorting out the rules to include those in need whilst excluding those who live on the backs of others.
