The ones who claim benefits when they are fit and able to work seem to know all the wangles. I know someone in their 20s who has done only a couple of days work and then developed a bad back and has been on the sick ever since - even when 'shopped' and sent for a medical they managed to pass it. Must be a talented actor.

I know someone else who is fitter than me but claiming DLA and has not only a bus pass but a free car which is used by another member of the family! Yet someone else I know who was a genuine claimant and had a list of disabilities as long as your arm was refused and is now dead, that's how disabled he was - terminally!

It just seems to me that genuine people don't get what they are entitled to whilst scroungers know how to milk the system.

A friend of mine who did actually injure her back was left to fend for herself with 3 young children and the doctor had told her to 'take it easy'!!!
