*Sees ire fired at the following 1) alcoholics and drug abusers on benefits needing to find extra income sources and those who try to do something to raise income levels legally but find a system that does not favour their getting rich but who suppresses and regulates them into poverty.
I wanna be peaceful and loving here but this drives me mad. The #UkUncut message hasn't penetrated as it should here with tales of real hardship starvation etc reaching these esteemed forums
NB I have an alcoholic drug addict friend neighbour in JSA and starving category I would be delighted if he had work so he could eat properly etc.#TY[/B] Would be Qaulity MSE Challenge Queen.

To all those on Benefits YOUR lifestyle is your lifestyle and NONE of their business, we have no rational debate and rational goodness to us who are most vulnerable in society. I have become very private since all these cuts were forced on us.#TY[/B] Would be Qaulity MSE Challenge Queen.

If you were on benefits you would unless you had self control be a druggie alcoholic etc look before you leap. One needs as much control as possible and best possible lifestyle to bloody survive!#TY[/B] Would be Qaulity MSE Challenge Queen.

I've been on benefits and nearly lost my house but I wasn't swanning around down the bookies, betting benefit money, I got off my butt and found work!
And it is our business, we pay tax for the likes of the OP to go and gamble it away or to drug up!:mad:
We have the right to say NO!0
