    Nick & Margaret

    We All Pay Your Benefits - An Exercise in 'Divide and Rule' | Steve Rose

    did anyone see this last night?
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

    Yes.

    Some good stuff, although I could't reconcile a £26k benefit cap with Nick's comment about "driving people into poverty"

    I'll bet that lazy tosser Liam (?) won't stick at the care job for too long, nor the chubber and cleaning, nor the hypochondriac with anything much. But the dude with the silly beard might just make a go of it!

      Anyone on benefits should be ashamed of living off others unless they are handicapped. Even then everyone should want to be self sufficient.

        Watched the first episode, and have the next one recorded.

        Liam winds me up the most because he seems the think that having a meeja degree makes working in a shop demeaning. He has no expenses because his family pay everything for him, and doesn't seem to want to do any real work.

              Perhaps Nick & Margaret would like to make a documentary about bribes paid to school staff for buying a certain make of PCs at inflated prices.

                What do you mean? We all know that DA is mentally handicapped. We only tolerate him as its a part of his care in the community.

                    maybe the Police could do that, oh I forgot they are too busy harassing young Blacks & Blondes.
