Sometimes it does not pay to be totally honest and hardworking ,
Now ain’t that a shame■■?
Daz1970:
Some claimants, rather put out at the new rules that have been introduced recently (and nothing like as tough as those due in quite soon) have even said “if it’s getting like that, I’ll sign off then!”, as if it’s some sort of threat - that’s what you’re meant to do!!
Many scrotes don’t want ‘dead end’ jobs… despite not having a qualification of any sort to their name, or thinking that signing on is not ‘dead end’ enough ?! They also cite many reasons for not wanting a particular job, or attending a (free) training session, such as … childcare… need some one to look after my dog…I’m moving house… mum/baby/window cleaners poorly…it’s a bit early… the list is endless.
Unfortunately now large scale manufacturing and nationalised industries have gone, the labour pool that these unemployables once might have occupied, has now gone. Many school leavers are 2nd & 3rd generation scrotes and actually know no better…I try and console myself with the thought that at least some of these plebs won’t be out pinching stuff while ever the taxpayer give them Aldi tokens for nowt.

It is getting worse almost weekly…most(not all) believe they are ‘owed’ free handouts without lifting a finger. Why then do they all have latest mobile phone, £100+ trainers to go with their £3.99 jogging bottoms to go with their (on display) £30.00 boxer shorts - usually reserved for males & a £25.00 baseball cap that never leaves their head - even during interview or appointments at JC!!!I think we’ve got a massive problem in this country.
Workers, any workers rule o.k.!!!
It’s extra benefits that pay for it

The scum know what there doing

As for those who don’t want to work, the amount of this type will only increase if the only work that is available is dead end type work paying the min wage or less society indirectly is giving some justifiction in not working for the min wage
And there lies the problem, there is work, but people can’t be arsed to get off their arses for anything less than £7/ph!
If you have a chronic illness or long term disability, fair enough. Otherwise, maybe the govt should set up a labour work force, paid, who could work in groups labouring, clearing the roadside etc etc. In my town, a whole stretch of ring road was built n the 1930’s by such a group. Then it was work or starve.
Now it’s go home, put the kettle on and watch Jeremy Kyle 
But not all those unemployed /sick/disabled are married or have kids, and as for them getting the offspring diagnosed falsely, it doesn’t end there ,
Just because a GP or a consultant makes a diagnosis that someone has something wrong with them, never heard of ATOS health care ? which the DWP sub contract to carry out medical examinations , which was brought in by labour , and the con dumbs have thrown even more money at ATOS ,
Now ATOS does anything but provide a proper medical of those who are sick/disabled they have only one real purpose and that is to find as many people fit for work,they have even found some fit for work who have died the next day, people who should of never even had to go to this farce of a face 2 face interview that is called a medical, carried out by so called health care professionals, this whole concept of the medical being focused on what someone can do not what they can’t, is unfair and not fit for purpose ,
Mind you the system has never really been fit for purpose,
Years ago i had an accident at work, commuted fracture of the wrist , i was self employed at the time, i couldn’t work, so claimed sickness benefits, after a while they asked to see me medical, by which time the plaster cast had been removed but i had reduced movement and the wrist was very weak, so still unable to carry stuff climb/move ladders etc was on physio at the hospital , but they said i was fit to work, as they have a get out clause that you are fit enough to to any type of work not necessarily you normal job, how can that apply if your are self employed?
This is nothing short of persecution by government, to make it’s self look good to the tax payer ,to win votes at the next election, but it’s all a blag
