brian, a cap has to be put on a lot of benifits, and i think it will. 40 grand a year and all tax free, plus all the other freebies on offer. child allowance should only be payed for 2 children. it bugs me that i have to pay tax on the small pension i get.

Absolutely Brian but who is going it be brave enough to suggest the reform and implement it?

It really does seem sensible to have a cap on benefits that can be received.
The equivalent of forty hours work a week at the minimum wage or the "living wage" would seem equitable.
If you can't live on that then you have to grow up and make some lifestyle choices rather than expect the rest of Society to support your choice of lifestyle.

How sad for the children not to receive enough individual attention.

This " I cant afford to work culture" is disgusting :-|


I used to know a family of 14 children and the father when you first spoke to him was a very mild mannered well spoken chap but did he think the world owed him a living, the council had to rehouse them in 2 houses adapted and joined together, the older children that worked actually managed to buy the house, during a convo one day it came out that one of the older children couldnt read or write and the look of self pity on the mans face when he told me the tale that it was because they had so many children it went unnoticed and my really was " but you carried on having more children" :-(

What I found strange was that he hired a skip, any clothes not wanted were bagged up and dumped in skip. Charity shops/car boot comes to mind.
