I'd rather a few people abused a system that got help to where it was needed without too much hassle than one where nobody got anything they didn't deserve, but some valid claims were ignored... some people are just stnuc, you've just got to factor them in. Can't let stnuc spoil it for everyone.

you don't think its a bit fucked up that this family is earning more than 40k a year for doing absolutely fuck all?
my dad's worked hard all his life, only missed one day of work in 12+ years (for his mum's funeral) and has only just got himself a tiny bit of luxury: a little boat and a flatscreen tv in the bedroom. he still drives an old car.
meanwhile, these stnuc sit on their fat asses all day and get paid for it. they can afford a brand new merc, 42" telly, bare mobiles and games, and a house...for doing nothing...at all...fuck off!

it does nothing but promote lazyness and baby-making. give them £40 each a week like I got when I was unemployed. fuckers.

I'm not defending that family or their attitudes at all, but some things to consider:

None of us chose to be born into a society that insists reality is so heavily governed by money... TBH I resent it.

People never complain about the queen and her family not having to work, nor the rich people within the world that are clearly unimportant. I'd rather complain about the avergae blinded human that's contributing to a worthless celebrity's career in all honesty. It's the equivalent of benefits... Sure this family has 42k just because of reproducing, but for instance look at how much money this stupid country has put into 'katie price' - and she's even cabbaged one of her own offspring due to fetal-alcohol poisoning.

It's silly that people respond only to the most literal of examples

I'm more pissed off that life is wasted on the perpetual struggle to be middle class :u:

P.S. Any of you people even wondered why they've got a story in the newspaper? Perhaps because the scumbag papers know it'll sell and make them a lot of money based on knee-jerk irritated responses. They're making money AND paying money to these sponges [for their story] that are already milking yo'bux...

Just saying that £42,000 a year is nothing anyway, its like 5p from every person in london so it doesnt affect you at all, and theyre not spending the the money on anything bad, at worst all it is just unfair

5p from every person, plus another £500 for everyone else claiming benefits.
Children aren't a necessity like food. If they can't afford food, fair enough, bail them out. If they've got more than four kids, cut their benefits til they get a job I say.

true, the main part that pissed me off is how they still aren't happy, and want more

fuck the monetary system, everyone should just head for the countryside and grow their own veg
i wouldn't have a problem with that :mrgreen:

Its funny how similar they all look. I would start getting dizzy after like number 4

They've got it all sorted anyway.. Some people push shit, some people go robbing ..these claim benefits in every possible way.

Its harmless in that respect but not for the economy. They are taking the Pee though, especially the mum. Lets hope she goes through the menopause soon
because at this rate we will have our taxes doubled.

.
£42k is very little to bring up a family that large and the most important thing is that the children are safe, well fed, loved and have a roof over their heads. You can't put a price on that. I think it's good that the state still supports people, as soon as there are rules drawn up on the entitlement of benefits then it is the thin end of the wedge. Also some of the replies on this thread imply it was the mother's fault, I don't know if they know how babies are made or what but hey ho that's a society based on patriarchy for you!

fuck that, those two are a pair of lazy stnuc who are setting an appalling example to their children
yes its good the children are all safe etc, but one of them at least could be out working, rather than just sit on their arse all day long and ponse off the system
course its the mothers fault, and the dads
who else's fault is it?

For once i agree with you, at the end of the day its fair enough that there is a system/safety net for people with kids who cant foot the bills but those two are pisstakers, we've had decent cheep contraception in this country for decades, its never 100% sure to work but those two seem to have had 7 on purpose and trying for an 8th. At the end of the day if they cant afford to have kids they shouldn't be trying for more kids. its not fair on the children or the taxpayer.

cunning journalism from the mail, stick a quote in saying that 'most of the parents at our kids' school are on benefits', then the stupid readers will assume that all the other parents take the same amount from the system....when they won't be taking anywhere near as much

plus, the amount spent on benefits like this is fucking nothing compared to the cash that gets stuffed away in tax havens every year, the real theft- but i suppose poor northern families are an easier target

shit in nz, ma family of 4 gets $400 a week. im a student & the mrs is a seasonal worker... so for like 1- 2months a year we get help. but that equates to like £180 a week. cant complain...it gets us by. but there is a huge difference between necessity & greed ah
