you really are quite pathetic.
paying people to have children was never going to be sustainable. your outrage at the thought of people supporting their own families and choices just highlights the fact that you exist in some other reality where cost isn't an option and everyone rides a unicorn to go to the shops!+0 -
Schools will be back in a few weeks I suppose.0

i'm illiterate?
i dispute old ... as your definition also makes you and everyone else old.
the only person to bring my sight issues up is you.
everyone else accepts my comments, regardless of if the agree or not.
the fact that i am blind has no relevance at all to my opinions0 -
i havent quoted anything that you have said though.
its quite amusing because i often get accused of being on the side of benefit claimants, and on the whole i am.
i just find it hard to accept that people are claiming thousands of pounds a year while driving flashy cars and enjoying foreign holidays ... and saying they DESERVE these things.
whilst people earning less than 15k a year are paying taxes that are given to these people0 -
I'm pleased to see that the village idiot has not only had all his vile posts removed, but his three alter-ego's have also been removed into the bargain.
Hopefully, he will go and be obnoxious somewhere else. :j:T:beer:"There are not enough superlatives in the English language to describe a 'Princess Coronation' locomotive in full cry. We shall never see their like again". O S Nock0 -

I had this discussion at football earlier. Quite a few are on tax credits and I asked if it meant their lads would have to stop football, I estimate all in that it costs £80 a month between subs, kit and away game transport. That's without tournament costs that can be £600 including caravans, not one said their lad would stop and one has 2 boys as one plays for the year above. Most will just adjust without too much problem.0 -
You seem to like helping people commit fraud tooI'm all for helping those that need it, no one in this world should go hungry. But a also think a line does need to be drawn and wouldn't want the job of figuring out a fair system.
The last 12 years have been silly, tax credits obviously don't work as the system was open to abuse, and abused it got.0
