    Sorry that I couldn't post immediately, but I wasn't aware that you had a right to have me sitting around waiting for your request.
    lol

    Still waiting for a post of mine accusing millions of fraud.

    Of course you cant find one, they dont exist. If I say fraud I mean fraud, if I say screwing the system, thats what I mean, maybe you read my comment "perfectly legal, but morally reprehensible" did you understand that?

    As for

    , that kind of sums you up, you admit you have "no idea" about me, but you are sure you "pay far more into the system " than I do.
    That's Diane Abbott style accounting.
    You're not Diane Abbott? Are you?

    Fraud in the true criminal sense is totally different to playing the system. Not all frauds are equal either - low level from sheer desperation is different to sheer greed and deliberate.

    I don't believe that they didn't know £19k would affect benefit though.

    I think you are confusing fraud with legitimate claims. If people are claiming in compliance with the rules, then that is a legitimate claim. In which case I would agree - yes, there are millions of legitimate claims, and very few fraudulent ones.

    Now that you have confirmed that there are millions of legitimate claims. I'm out. Of course, that isn't at all what you were trying to say. You were simply stirring up **** about people on benefits. And, as is made very clear on this board, if you don't like the system, this isn't the place to discuss it.

    Thanks for that. That's all the evidence we needed. In other words, you are lying about the millions committing benefit fraud.

    You are arguing with a multiple banned AE. He has expressed the same sentiments, in the same words, under all his other accounts, and doubtless keeps a few 'spare' for when ollocks-spelt-backwards gets PPRed.

    It doesnt take a genius to screw the system, in fact the 0.7% of fraud is testimony to that.
