    Ugh not really in the mood for the condescending tone, your probably far to ugly to be my mother (no offence) let alone talk to me like my mother.

    Now that sort of attitude does not endear you to people and you are less likely to get any assistance - which means you may get very, very, hungry. :D

    Perhaps you own mother could help you?

    I was thinking about that yes, I've had one before though and I think I got £9.21p to live off for a week lol, I don't think I say the right things at these places :)

    9.21 would be better than nothing - at least you wouldn't starve.

    What exactly is a hardship payment? that sounds like it might be helpful

    I dont think you will qualify because they arent paid for the first 2 weeks of a sanction, unless you have kids are disabled etc.

    To be honest I think the fact the government can allow a person to starve (whatever the reason was for missing appointments) is appalling and just shows where their priorities lie.

    And your attitude isn't really in the ethos of these forums.

    I see you didn't give any helpful suggestions so what exactly is your purpose of being here except to try and belittle people?

    Has your ego had its daily massage knowing you've put someone down?

    But hey I guess you get t*ats even were people are requesting help

    viktory likes to belittle people in the benefits forum. In relation to one of my posts about benefits, she said 'she was glad she didn't have to go begging for money.'

    With an attitude like that, I really don't understand why she is here.

    Actually, I suggested a crisis loan - and bigPhil78 was far ruder than I. And I am very glad I don't have to beg for my spending money. That's what working for a living gets you.

    So why are you here then?

    Why lower yourself to be amongst beggars?
