Did you miss the weekly Child benefit in there? Or was that included in the £57.57?

 

Also the Healthy Start food vouchers that get you free milk and vegetables (or fags etc in some shops)

it is surprising how many low life scum bags have there own business's

 

And it's surprising how many people patriotic enough to fly the union flag have such poor English they can't spell scumbags and businesses, and don't know the difference betwen their and there.

Oh, now how would you know this then?

 

Think its about time that people stop it with the single mum thing. How the hell do you or anyone else know that they are single, chavs, slappers, or otherwise?

 

You un-educated ignoramus

And therein lies the problem. The chances of a single parent with 3 kids getting a job on 25k per year is very slim.

I think it was a continuous joke from posts 4 ,11 and 13.

Sounds great. Someone impregnate me, stat!

 

Dinks on his way

It amazes me how many people manage to be on here all day, stereotyping and slating other people left right and centre, and yet obviously must hold full time employment themselves, as 'sponging' from the state is abhorrent to them, and they're always complaining of having their wages taxed to pay for such 'low lives'

 

Do you all work nights or something?

Sadly most jobs dont involve Monday- Friday 9-5.

 

some people have to work different hours and Saturdays and Sundays hope that clear things up abit

I too was a lone parent AND a full time bank manager, and my son used to enjoy the occasional macdonalds (although now he has more of a refined pallette)............ god I'm a scrounging scum bag!
