    Too fat to work!

    X FACTOR flop Emma Chawner and her family are demanding more benefits because they are too fat to work. Link

    Prehaps if cut their benefit they would not be able to afford all that food?

        Thanks

        Just loved the quote from the mother about buying pears ONCE but they tasted funny !

        Sorry, but I bet their food bill is more then £50 per week.

          Aye Zara

          And I liked this - sounds like a fascinating household.


          Philip gave up work as a lorry driver in 1997 after developing diabetes.

          He admitted: “I haven’t bothered looking for another job because driving is all I know, and I’d get too tired standing in a factory.”

          He says he now spends most of the day watching telly.

          He said: “We love TV. It’s on from the moment we get up. Often I’m so tired from watching TV I have to have a nap.”

            Compulsory euthanasia draws nearer with every passing day....
            Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus

              I suspect their BISCUIT bill is over £50 a week!

                  A bit extreme. How about just changing the benefits system? I say "just"...

                    No need for an expensive euthanasia clinic, if you make them walk to the clinic they will probably have a cheap heart attack on the way.
