I tell you what, we'll swop shall we? I'll have your job, you can struggle on benefits for a few months, maybe that will knock the arrogant attitude to those not working out of you.
:mad:

Less you may have hit on a solution to the problem there. Let those in work swop with an unemployed person for a while so they really get a feel for what it's like and the person without a job gets some respite from their situation.

I wonder if Duggie was referring to the people for whom unemployment is a lifestyle choice and have never worked and have no intentions of doing so, rather than people who have lost their job and are desperate for work?

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
 

No, Duggie was lumping all together, if we could be reached in one easy sweep he would crush all people claiming just as he would crush a bug, after all he is superior, he's never been in a position to need to claim, (far above the mortal).

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
 

Doubt it, some people class all unemployed as layabouts and scroungers without considering they might be there themselves one day.

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
 

Um funny that seeing unemployment as just dropped for the forth month on the trot accyman:rolleyes:

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
 

need to make their minds up because last weeK on the radio it said unemployment for under 25's was up and so was the amount of school leavers not getting a job.

Lets face it every party that has been in power has fudged figures to make things look beter than what they are.

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
 

last wee on the radio? - do you still get good reception?

When I tried to do that as a quote it came up with a capital K on the end of the offending word - what if I had been trying to talk about something very small?

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
 

To set the record straight I am self employed which means I find my own work by whatever means I have at my disposal.
Nobody pays me a wage, nobody pays me to go on holiday for 5 weeks a year and nobody gives me any money to help pay my household bills. If I don't get of my backside and find work I dont eat, simple.
some weeks I earn jack poo, other weeks are good but at least you have a regualr amount of free money ever week. try paying a bill when you cant claim any benefits because you are self employed.
For those who cant find a job then perhaps you should try working for yourself but then again you probably wouldn't like having to work about 80 hours per week, working week ends,working till 9 at night, doing all your accounts, chasing money owed, the work goes on and on.
Best to just sit at home and whinge eh.
Just think that my hard work and my taxes keep you in cigarettes and the odd beer or two.
There are two types of people in this world, the haves and the have nots, We can then divide these groups into probably another 50 groups but generally the group that I am offended by are the ones who can work but choose not to, these people should be targetted and helped into work but to do that the country will need to make it a little less comfortable for them. end of rant and goodnight

Re: Changes To Housing Benefits
 

I have no free money, I worked and paid into the system for over 40 years I have been employed and an employer in the past, unlike you though I don't blame the unemployed for the situation they are in, they aren't the parasites you imagine them to be, you however are proving yourself to be exactly the sort of person that would have anyone less fortunate than yourself starve, you think it's all they deserve.
Not a very nice man at all.

Why is it impossible? It said it on the BBC news mate so it's gotta be right! :rolleyes:
