also, do you know how long the housing list is? 
what do you do if you are turfed out by your parents and have nowhere to go?
cardboard box is a great plan for a newborn

I understand where you're coming from Rob, like I said mistakes happen and if we all had crystal balls we could plan for shit like this. Sometimes it's just not possible though and people change.
I have nothing against those who are helpless and genuinely have no other options. For example like you said they're a single mum or whatever.
It's those families like the one that was in the paper a year or so ago. Mum and dad still there, 8 kids or something. He couldn't be arsed to work, neither could she. They openly admitted to not working because the benefits were enough.
I'm not slagging anyone off.

At the end of the day it's those who can't be bothered to get off their asses and look for work when they're able to do so.

Yeh Robin, i saw in the paper a while back a man who was claiming disability, said he couldnt stand etc
Was pictures of him building and painting a fence in the paper, showing he was totally able bodied
People like that should have their legs broken so they can understand what its like for people who actually cant work because of a disability

No I’m not a single Mum or parent but one of my sisters is. She’s got two little boys and yes the fucker of a boyfriend did one. She gets almost £700 a month, money towards gas and electric and free rent a fully refurbished house. Ok, the area is not great but the house is loverly. So those of you who come on here and feel hard done by can lick my arse, your better off than those of us that work.
Ok, my sister went off the rails but she’s trying now. She’s applied for jobs and awaiting the decision. According to what she says she’ll be £30 a week better off.

Don't have a problem with people like your sister Andrew. She is obviously trying to get her life back into shape.
And I don't think there are any people on here that feel 'hard done by'...
