Nobody is interested in the Truth, God Dammit!

Re: Welfare myths
 

We live in Daily hateMail Britain, where the truth rather inconveniently gets in the way of peoples desire to feed and exercise their bigotry.

How can they know how much is fraudulently claimed?

Re: Welfare myths
 

Exactly, unless it's a proper report, I ain't believing it's that low.


Anyway, whatever it is, fraudulent claiming is too high regardless.

Re: Welfare myths
 

I'd like to know how many in raw numbers claim it for more than 5 years.

And 100% of people know this.

I guess people will believe whatever they wish to believe if it reinforces their view of the world.

you have to look at the bigger picture as it's not just the unemployed that cost money it's also working families couples with or without children.

so a working couple who both have part time jobs totaling 24hrs or more earning 10k with 3 kid will get £11,815 top up which brings the total income to 21,815. this couple actually get paid more in top ups than they make as a wage. an unemployed couple with three kids gets a top up of £8,615 + their income support. but what they give in one hand they take in another.
