You just dont give up, do you.

Sat Nav I read on here recently that the government hired a private company to assess recipients of benefits and they approved a guy in a coma as fit for work.
Don't know how true it is, but I believe stuff like this happens.

Be fairer if everybody that could work but chooses not to be encouraged back to the workforce, they should be going after those that live off unearned income just as hard as theyre going after the sick and disabled.

That can’t be true, surely? Wtf

Alex Cunningham: Why are 34% of children in my constituency living in poverty?

Another MP: Because it’s a shi!hole.

The MP in question sounded an awful lot like James Cleverly

Tories r arseholes. So prudent to squeeze the little man for trying even a few tricks but let the big man run havoc, rip off people and engorge themselves.

Then they perpetrate this narrative about people who don't want to work so that idiots are kept busy looking at that while they get away with robbery, literally.

It's not that we don't care about benefits cheats. It's just that there's bigger fish to fry first. Unless you're thick or batting for the other team.

Not sure what you find so funny but there’s already limits and conditions for receiving benefits and there’s loopholes.,I expect that this will be no different.

They’re not going to stop someone who has non-verbal autism or something like that from receiving benefits after 18 months.

Oh change the record

Introduce UBI and ensure we all have enough for our basic needs

No need for this chat
No need for a welfare system
No potential for a poverty trap where tax credits and the like disincentivise people from progressing in life
No red tap
Blah blah blah

Yes there would be *some* inflation tho

Hahahaha

Everyone is getting a tax increase over time despite this due to them freezing the thresholds. This move cost them £10 billion, but they will have made £45 billion in extra tax income by 2029. So the nation will continue to get poorer, but they have a headline to try to fool people into believing they are cutting tax ready for when they announce the next election.

I can't. The whole country is saying the same thing. This is Tories were talking about. All records are the same, sorry.

Sorry to hurt your feelings Satty but your boys are utter sheet, just like I told you all along. You've done well to obfuscate, deflect and defend them over the years, but there's only so much you can do in the face of utter incompetence, corruption and the smell of racism hanging around the country like an elefart.

Reasonable for protesters to call Iain Duncan Smith ‘Tory s**m’, court rules

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/politics/2023/nov/21/protesters-iain-duncan-smith-tory-sc*m-reasonable-court-rules

Haslam and Wood had followed Duncan Smith from a short distance. They separately called him “Tory s**m”. Wood added: “F**k off out of Manchester.”

Wood defended her comments on the grounds that her job working with homeless people in her local community meant she felt very strongly about the impact that Conservative party policies were having on people’s lives.
