I see we are at a disagreement. I am always judgemental and cannot help it. Is that an illness? Could I claim benefits for that?
No, you cannot. If you refer to the stickies at the top of the Benefits board, Martin states that this board is for benefits queries, not judgmental comments. If you wish to discuss benefits policy, you can start a thread on DT (or add to one that is already there - there usually is one active).Gone ... or have I?0 -

Yet that isn't what this board is for. It's here to help people find out what they are entitled to under the current system, and to help them get it. Benefits do provide a lifeline for many, and this site is here to help people with their money, and not to judge. Of course, how to illegally defraud the benefits system shouldn't be discussed here, but ensuring you're getting your entitlement is exactly what its about.
If you are judgemental perhaps this is not the board for you.0 -
I want to ensure that I get my entitlement, that's all.
I'm entitled to at least the same quality of life as someone who makes no effort. I believe that and always will.0 -
