    Would it be far easier if you actually just minded your own business, you seem to know an awful lot about someone else's financial affairs. Curtain twitter much.

    If you can claim most of your rent and council tax.Get Dla when you can do all the tasks every other housewife can do and take care of 3 kids.And get a partner that works.Have over 22 grand in savings and still get plenty of benefits on top of normal wftc then no wonder this country has a massive debt problem.
    You seriously think they should be entitled?

    Why does someone need £50 a week because they cant be bothered to read.Oh she reads fast enough when something says she is entitled to more cash!!

    Dont get me wrong.If someone needs something and uses that money directly or indirectly for their disability then they obviously need it.

    Edited to add.
    Like a nephew of mine is a teen and has epileps ,he sometimes wets the bed and they have to buy pull ups.Also the duvets need replacing and there is extra washing.You can see why the extra is needed.Thats when people need the Dla.
    *SIGH*

    Ok,attack me,who you dont know over someone who is abusing a privelidge.Call me what you like.Yes you have got to me.I cant believe I have given my opinion to be called names.I have not attacked anyone here.Simply stated that the benefit can be abused.But yay for the scroungers ey?
    Il tell my husband not to bother going to work for his wages Monday.We would get more on the dole.Actually ,he comes across a bit thick sometimes.Maybe Il try get Dla for him!!!
    Oh dear seems a lot of people that cross your path are a "bit thick" do you think it's a reflection on yourself? English wasn't your strongest subject at school right?

    So it's okay that you can attack someone else oh the irony, love.

    Personally I would just give to those who get high rate mobility, those who have difficulty moving around aren't as fortunate as those who can. :D

    Im a little bit tipsy on vodka.But hey whatever you think of this female.Least Im not screwing the average tax payer over by claiming money I am not entitled to.I spend most days backing people who need benefits and who are claiming legally.But if you seem to prefer backing people who want even more of it ,go for it!!No wonder there is nothing left.

    No English is my second language my friend.Maybe my name gives you a clue.I am Welsh!!Although I have an A level in English language and literature that I went back to get at 26 whilst being a mum to 2 children.Go get a life you troll.Do you actually have a purpose other than attacking others that have a different view to you.Do you actually have a stance on anything?Or is it just to be the opposite to anyone.
    So you were tipsy here aswell :rotfl: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.php?p=39036490&postcount=30
