Who's going to get up and go out to work for £40 a week more than what they recieve for doing as they like, when they like!?

I personally would.

Regardless of what someone implied; posting pictures of dead children is a totally disproportionate and inappropriate response to just about anything.

Remarkably I actually agree with White Horse on this one - the system as it stands allows this situation to happen, if anything it actually encourages it. Having said that - the average number of children per UK family has dropped since the 70s, from 2.1 to 1.8.

I tend to think these people are the exception rather than the rule.

its the lefty way - remember in the last election their dirty anti semitic posters making Howard and Letwin look like Fagin.

They apologised but their work was done. These people are lower than a snakes belly.

From the article:

The family also run a Mercedes people carrier and an 11 seater minibus.

Mr and Mrs Davey met 13 years ago in a pub and had their first child, Jessica, a year later.



They then went onto have Jade, ten, Jamie-Anne, eight, Harriet, six, Adele, four, the couple's only son Tie, three, and Mercedes, two.

They have a Mercedes car and a child called Mercedes. This is quite ridiculous and I remember saying the same thing the other day to my friend Shaun and his children Vauxhall and Volvo.

Thanks White Horse! I love you too.

To be fair, there are millions of people out there who work and treat it as some type of 'loss-leader'. Students who come own from Uni could probably sit at their parents and do nothing, but many anjoy the working and see the future benefit it gives to the CV and future employment. Many people in a relationship where their partner earn a fortune still work because it's good for self-esteem and welbeing. Many people volunteer for nothing.

So working for the same, or even less, than you would get on benefits is quite a common thing for a lot of people.

nothing wrong with my grammar. although I don't see why you needed to say "personally" here. what was wrong with "i would"?

Come to where I work and they are very much the rule.
