    he could be claiming self employed jsa (therefore maybe not a benefit cheat)

    if he is a friend you should be able to talk to him about all of this

    I'd just report him anonymously. You can do it online, on the DWP website. Then its up to the DWP to decide if he's actually a benefits cheat or not.

    And the winner of this week's TROLL thread is.......
  • why would you call me a troll?

    i only wanted advice, and most of you seem to think i should confront him about it.

    myself and my hubby will talk to him the next time we see him

    One wonders what skeletons you have in your closet. Somehow I think you're far from holier than thou.

    If you're genuine, and i now appreciate you may be, so apologies.....

    Why on earth would you ask for advice on something like this on a website from people you dont know?

    Are you THAT suggestable?

    Have you no moral compass, or ability to think issues like this through for yourself and accept responsibility for the decisions you make?

    Either report him or don't, it's up to you.

    If you're looking for approval, look inside yourself, not here.

    VOSA have changed the way vehicles are tested now and it would be very very dificult for him to pass a vehicle compared to the old days

    OP you should really concentrate on leading your own life. You appear to have posted a number of times about reporting people for various transgressions.

    Sticking the emmisions tester up the exhaust of a 1 year old fiesta whilst testing the 10 year old mondeo next to it iis still a viable ploy, I know it happens ;);)

    And think about all the visuals, easy to ignore a rusty brake pipe, worn track rod end etc etc etc, far from difficult
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed
