my hubby and i have five kids, both work full time and have none of the above (well a beat up old car) but we have pride.

we are both having a really hard time at work at the moment and are tempted to jack it in. we would probably be better off on benefits which is fundamentally wrong.[/quote]

Exactly affordmylife. Something IS fundamentally wrong when hard-working people struggle to get by, and the eternal claimants can afford SKY, PSP's, mobiles, cigarettes and pedigree dogs. Lets hope things change very soon.
Case in point, my local authority had to fight to get a 2.4% payrise this April. By what percentage did th benefits increase by? 3.1%. Go figure.
