    are you serious?

    personal vendetta?

    I have replied to 2 posts SHE directed at me with relation to her being wrong about my husband supposedly being turned down for DLA.

    Like I keep telling her, he would have had to apply for it to be turned down. He's never applied for anything.

    He gets on with it and goes to work to support his family without relying on anyone else to feed and clothe his kids.
    When your life is a mess, stop and think what you are doing before bringing more kids into it, it's not fair on them.

    haha you think your so clever,
    how long did it take you to troll through my old posts for this one :)

    lil update for you, he was found fit for work, they are all working now and not claiming sick benefit.

    But what ever rocks your boat. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    So not on the fiddle then, as you suggested.... or they would have been all over the national newspapers as fraudsters.
    [greenhighlight]but it matters when the most senior politician in the land is happy to use language and examples that are simply not true.
    [/greenhighlight][redtitle]
    The impact of this is to stigmatise people on benefits,
    and we should be deeply worried about that    [/redtitle](house of lords debate, talking about Cameron)

    what a shame

    Many people claim benefits but often they choose to ignore that an attack others as they perceive they are milking it and want something for nothing

    perhaps I need to buy a parrot. And it can sit and sqwak the following:

    I THINK PEOPLE WHO GENUINELY NEED IT SHOULD GET IT

    I THINK PEOPLE LAYING IT ON THICK SHOULDN'T

    But why can you not follow the simple forum rules? You can say that in Discussion Time or on MSE-generated news threads. You can't say that on threads by individual posters needing advice in the Benefits subforum. Here, you have three options:

    * Offer non-judgemental advice
    * Keep schtum
    * Report a poster privately to the MSE team if you believe they are asking for advice on benefit fraud or actively advising benefit fraud.

    It really and truly is NOT rocket science. If you just get with the program, it will all go swimmingly.

    Or there is a perception that there are 'okay' benefits, and bad ones.
