My mistake from what I can see it's a lets hate the taxpayer site.

All I see is benefit threads not any about coming job losses, pay cuts, NI rises, ctc cuts for workers, just what the budget has done to benefits.

If you have different opinion, you are a troll, benefit basher or if people can't cope with your POV, they get the thread locked or hurl abuse at you.

Just a new trolls opinion, and the "benefit" claimants are the worst out there for "trolling".

People who work will have different sources of information. Colleagues, managers, unions, prodessional bodies, HR departments, payrole etc etc etc. They also tend to be better consulted with regarding important changes.

Thats odd, because plenty of those threads have been done.

And it was a thread about benefit bashing being wrong that was locked, the benefit bashing threads are remaining unlocked, so your theory is flawed as usual.

I think we must be looking at two different forums, there are many many budget threads covering all aspects.

If they are complaining though who can blame them? A 20% cut when you've not got anything left to cut, I'd be screaming from the bloomin rooftops I tell you.

Like I sais I say it as a noob to this forum, no online cliques, no online friends or spats, no living my life through this forum. So my view is less tainted than yours.

I found it through the Armed forces board and come here to pass time as I like a healthy debate.

All I have seen so far is epic toy chucking, cliques, arguments, "friends" falling out and a hell of a lot of benefit claimants playing the victim.

There have been a lot of benefit threads since the budget and if anyone *dare* say the system is unaffordable even if they believe in it in principle that's when the kids really come out. Name calling, abuse, benefit bashing, huge thanks circle in benefit vs non benefit cliques.

That is not a debate it's worse than kids in a playground I find it hilarious however and the fact is the so called benefit claimants here like to play the vicitm when in fact they are the ones hurling abuse at others for merely having a different opinion, cheers:beer:

I think that just applies to the forums part of the website, not the website as a whole.

No it applies to a few of the forums over the (50?) forums that we have on this site.

You all just need to get "out" more

Maybe the thread was to Ugly for MSE.

MSE is a benefit bashing site primarily, and a money saving site secondarily.

Do you know, in six years I never realised that! Here I was, saving money, and only now do I discover that I should have been bashing benefits.

Thank you cit_k, for lifting the scales from my eyes.
