Yes you are and I have reported your post as such. No one is picking on single parents - sadly you are too thick to see that your own argument vis a vis immigrants is being used against you - and boy you don't like that at all.
Im not racist & im not thick, im actually Autistic, does that mean you are discriminating against me cos im disabled if you want to label people so much.I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

Well I guess she was too quick to jump on the bandwagon, and didn't bother to read your posts in which it states you are Autistic. And if she bothered to look up the symptoms she would of known you have behavioural and communication probs. Not that you're using that as an excuse. But in this great British country you are merely practising your right to free speech lol
Jeez They all cry Racism... no wonder people are too afraid to speak their mind.:j Things can only get Better :j0 -

To get IB you only need to have worked for two tax years previous to this calendar year.
I hardly call that full NI contributions. For some that it is very little say less than £1000 over the two years. I suspect some people claim more than that a month in benefits.
If you are not living together and you have clear conscious then it will be fne.
I am not sure why people have such a hard time for where the line is drawn. Maybe it, maybe it isn't fair. But thats the rules. We have people on having a pop at not being able to claim tax credits because they are under 25 that could be because the government expect most under 25's to be in education or training and on a low wage and living at home.
As For delain then yes you will be classed as a couple as you on his insurance which only allows for one address. They assume you both live at the same address :rolleyes: for insurance purpose. And you are paying for it.
So that assumes a relationship which is more than just BF/GF as you have a financial tie.
No one is saying you should not have a relationship. But would you define what you think should be classed as a relationship?

We wouldn't be in this mess if Labour hadn't let so many imigrants into our Country to claim benefits, run our NHS into the ground & take up all our coucil houses.
This is actually very offensive. Please tell me as you are so knowledgeable just how to immigrants 'run our NHS into the ground' ?
Youand your kids have health problems, you have talked about them freely here, are YOU and you kids not a drain on the NHS, hleping run it into the ground? Docitors assesments, medication, counselling the list goes on.
Did you know immigrants dont get any priority for housing for the fact they immigrants/refuges/asylum seekers. In fact those with young children who are or at risk of homlessness are the highest priorty and given the most homes by LA's and HA's (no i didnt say single mums there are single dads and other family caring for children)
Did you also know those same immigrants usually get no access to public funds, and are no allowed to work despite having skills and wanting to. They are only allowed a special benefit of around £25 per week for all bills & food a lot more than you get no?
Do you really think the NI you paid for the time you did is the equivilant to what you are receiving in IS, IB, DLA for the whole family by the sounds of it, and the many other benfits you dont actually see as cash in hand like LHA, Medical care, medicine, Councial tax benefit, school uniform grants, free school meals etc etc etc
Because it will be nowhere near.
And no this is not me having a go at single mums. I have enough of them as friends and family and I was one of sorts bringing up my nephew since he was 10.
This is me having a go at you because you are a vile racist.0 -

That is not true. My husband has AS remember.
People with AS have difficulty telling lies to someones face that does not mean they can not do it they just find it more difficult, sort of how a child would. They can lie in forms, over the phone etc with the same ease as anyone else.0 -

I meant I have paid full tax & NI since leaving school 20 yrs ago.I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.
