The whole issue of benefits is of course a thorny one.

[Witharby 2-3 weeks]

properly. In other words, it's a government policy.

...do agree the scheme is designed to get long term skivers back into work though


nb my opinion might change if she wasnt such a munter

But seems to have become invisible!

Typical conservative nonsense-blame unemployment on the unemployed.

[3rd Generation Gooner]

...same as students and the disabled...and dont get me started on f**king lesbians

[Brentwood]

If benefits are reduced or scrapped too much then the only way people will be able to survive is to turn to crime. I just got back from Rio and you see super rich people living alongside people in Favelas with nothing. Wouldn't take much to tip the balance imo

If a person has no stake in society and nothing to lose, how can you expect them to abide by society's rules?

Also, is it just a coincidence that the CEO of poundland is a massive tory donor?

[Bergkamp's Brain]

Nobody would get their iPhone out in the street, they have to hide cards and cash in their underwear or socks, I saw a woman get her purse stolen in teh street and nobody did anything about it, kids on every street taxing people who were parking their cars to ensure they wouldn't be smashed up and more

Amazingly beautifiul country, but f**k living like that every day!

the inherent potential for criminality that is within us all?

it doesn't necessarily prevent someone getting gainful employment.

would deprive those who genuinely need the benefits system, just to make sure those who take advantage of it are not able to.

I wonder what these people would do if they had the chance of pulling two people - one an arsehole and the other a nice guy - out of a burning car wreckage but could either pull them both out or none at all. Would they pull out neither, just to make the arsehole suffer?
