    I only said few and far between because benefit fraud is 0.7% of welfare budget according to the Department for Work and Pensions :)

    Excited for Masterchef tonight. I think my favourite is the guy with all the tattoos. Pete? And the girl who does the massive plates of yummy food. Better get the snacks ready :cool:

    Its not fraud though - its just knowing your way round the system to screw the rest of us !

    Enjoy the cooking - I daren't watch as i'm still on the 5:2 diet.

    Have you another device? A laptop perhaps? I managed to press the back button and get 2 per device.



    I did 2 shops in 2 different stores. One with 6 PG and the 25% came off as it should and spat a tenner pp. The other was 5 PG with a JC Shiraz, 25% came off (this may have been fixed in this store or could be nationwide?) and spat 9.98 pp.
    Thank you I thought that with being shut Easter Sunday , they would of been working hard to fix it .

    Evening all :wave:
    I dont know what the answer is except to limit CBto 2/3 kids but what about those already who have more.
    food vouchers could be given with conditions eg no cigs but ppl would prob sell the food for cigs.
    same with food parcel deliveries.....
    it wouldnt gall ppl so much if ppl didnt boast about new bags, hols.....
    would it be fair for ppl to attend job centres everyday so they couldnt go on hols,..yes and no
    I do think something should be done about immigration, perhaps a points system like aussie.ppl from poorer eu countries are coming here just for the benefits, perhaps these should be capped to the same rates as the country they have come from if they are not coming to do a job.i think that would put alot of ppl off....but then theres the question of equality and human rights, which everyone seems to have except us.
    why doesnt the mayor of calais stop blaming the uk for the large number of immigrants trying to get here, and just deport them all back to the last eu country they passed throu to get to france, I always thought france was a landlocked country with one coast line but cant remember my geography leesons very well...,,
    you can imagine what kind of traffic warden id make.........lol

    Really?

    ''Less than 5 per cent of EU migrants are claiming Jobseekers’ Allowance, while less than 10 per cent are claiming other DWP working-age benefits.

    On top of this, the think tank Class found that of those who claim Jobseekers’ Allowance, 91.5 per cent are UK nationals. Additionally, among unemployed migrants, only 1 per cent claim unemployment benefits, compared to the 4 per cent of unemployed UK nationals who are claimants.

    Rather than being “benefit tourists”, migrants to the UK make a net contribution, as they pay more in taxes than they take out in benefits. A UCL study this month found that the UK gains £20bn from European migrants. And a study by the OECD last year found that migrants make a net contribution of over £2000 per head.''

    Oh, I would have thought that you are entitled to the same human rights as any other member of the EU? I could be wrong here, I am more than happy to read evidence to the contrary :)

    Hi does the Sanex Men Active work even though it shows 2 for £4? I wanted to order one of those and a Garnier shampoo. I know it worked as a trigger but I have been able to see 2 for £4 all along.

    Thanks
