yes as discussed before it turns out they no longer give extra money to alcholics but reclassified them and allowed them to claim incapacity benefit and disability living allowance but they used to get extra seperate payments for booze

either way they get more money than some poor sod having to survive on job seekers allowance just because they got a habbit which is unfair

jobseekers allowance is a pittance and people struggle like hell just because they dont have a habbit to fall back onto and get extra money for
