Not a long word and not used as often in everyday conversation by some folk so it may cause complications.

Odd but that large smiley has a look of me :eek:

Perhaps there should be a rule that anyone convicted of cheating the benefit system should thereafter be disqualified from receiving any further benefits.

Yes, I was going to say that too.
Everyone has rights, but no-one seesm to step up to the plate of responsibility.

The cost of fraud is dwarfed by the surplus from unclaimed benefits from folk who are entitled but don't claim,.“Errors” cost more than fraudsters. how much does locking them up cost £35k on average per yr? :rolleyes: (I'm not saying they should get a slapped wrist)
The Government announced that benefit cheats will now be dealt with as harshly as fraudulent bankers :eek:...I'm not sure giving them Knighthoods is the right way to go :)
Having watched Benefits Street,It's not much different to Sesame Street I watched as a child,I mean they've Both have a big bird, a bloke living out of a bin and people trying to learn the alphabet.

Now that was a shame, I was about to put a like on this post, for it's humour, I hesitated and googled it on the web instead:-

https://www.google.com/search?q=Havi...=t&channel=rcs

It comes up on several sites all dated before your post.

Please don't plagiarise, if you read something elsewhere worthy of putting on site the least you can do is put a link to where you found your quote.
If the original author sees you have used their work, both you and the site could be in big trouble.
:(:o:p;)

humour anyway) I'll bare your advice in mind tho ;)
