Capitalist bankers is my guess,not benefit recipients.
If you read this in the style of Neil the Hippy from The Young Ones it really works. You may need to add in some "Yeahs" or "Mans" in there though.0 -

It`s actually quite a philosophical question and that may be a little bit to difficult for you to understand.Nationalism is an infantile disease. It is the measles of mankind. - Albert Einstein.

Hmmm
Would you care to answer my questions on page one and then maybe we can join in with this philosophical discussion.
We need more details to be able to form our personal arguements against or for each example you have given.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.0 -
I understand the OP
Just havent got a clue what to write apart from they are both equally to blame if : the benefit recipient is long term ,lazy,the world owes me a living !!!!!! and the smug (im guessing) tory city dealer is a : I want more power,money,its mine mine mine ,I demand huge pensions and salary for making important decisions that fail .

No, sorry. Bad grammer and meaningless drivel is lost on normal people.

I can feel myself taking the bait. Here goes...islandannie wrote: »I,m a fat capitalist leech and Applegarth is my name.with a pension of £1000.00 per week which is my reward for failure

I presume you're refering to Adam Applegarth, the Northern Rock blokey? On a very simplistic level it is quite shocking to see someone be rewarded for failure with a nice big pension. When people are given jobs with these inflated salaries they get paid to balance risk on behalf of the company which it seems many of them got wrong. He was probably contractually obliged to that pension no matter how things went, so there we go. Like you, it doesn't seem right to me either.
I don't understand the point of your second line, so you must be right, I'm too thick to understand it.0
