Benefits Street, not much different to Sesame Street.
Both have a big bird, a bloke living out of a bin & people trying to learn the alphabet...

I don't watch it coz I don't want to kick the sh*t out of my tv. Come across lots of low lifes like this where I work. We call them the big tv, no carpet scroungers ! They normally have more tech in their front room than I could ever wish to have.  Dusty |

I f.....g hate sponging scum - the system is all wrong - lets help people who need it but those who are capable of work of some kind should be made to work. We've had steam coming out of our ears on the Z1 Site aswell.

To answer your question... They get some of there money by stealing it from the government by making out they cant work or by saying there are no jobs. The rest of the money they thieve from people like us. Most just say they have a bad back then they can get £100 a week. Simple when you know how. They have no worries about laying in bed when we are stuck in traffic trying to get to work just to keep them in fags, booze and drugs. |

Cheers paul glad im not only one who feels pissed at these people and our gov.the spva (army)advised me to tell the gov that my injuries had deteriorated as had more ops n treatment recently and hopefully they would increase my dla till i am fit to go back to work(yes i have job still lol).i rang them to be told they are stopping dla (disability living alowence) and re naming it pip ( personal independence payment) so re naming it means even tho i am in constand pain due to the bone/nerve/ligament damage and need more ops in future etc i may even lose my 80 qiud a month they give me bcause with a leg brace etc im able to walk and drive auto car on good days so they class me as independant.so under personel independece name i may not be deserving of that.there words not mine.i agree we should all do our bit but as a veteren im bit pissed at both these people and our gov.anyway rant over roll on donny show nxt wkend..ps im wrighting this as im lay in bed as had rough night...jeremy kile on today ?

I had a mate who worked hard in dead end jobs all his life and had f**k all to show for it as he could barely earn enough money to cover the mortgage and bills............. However after his divorce every thing changed in his favour BIG TIME when he was granted custody of his three kids (as his ex was deemed an unfit mother) and was told to give up work to look after the children and his benefits would take care of his finances, since giving up work he has been moved into a three bed detached house, bought the latest widescreen TV/Sky, mobile phone, leather suite and all new furniture etc etc Oh and he has five weeks holls in Europe each summer and three weeks winter holls each Xmas in Italy and a grand on top of his benefits to give the family a BRITISH HOLLIDAY each year!!!!! Nice to know I'm up at the crack of dawn to work outside in the pi$$ing rain most days to help pay for the W****R to lay in bed and take it easy....NOT !!!!!!! |

Another programme on a charity in London that supports immigrants. The lithuanian couple who came over and he got sent to prison for burglary. She got sent down for shop lifting. Both heroin addicts. Both claiming as single people so getting more than they should. They found her work in a hotel and she refused it because she had a poorly leg. He got sent on a elf and safety course by job centre so he could work as a labourer ..... yea right. Sit around all day smoking and drinking and buying smack. They said "there is nothing like this in Lithuania, people don't get money for nothing there" ! Its a f**king joke ! I do a second job and earned £240 but paid £60 of that in stoppages to pay for these t**ts. Its bad enough paying for your own let alone the foreign ones good job I didn't have a lump hammer to hand or I wouldn't have a tv either !!!!!!!

There's the workers and the sherkers in all nationalitys . I know very hard working and honest poles and Romanians . Our immigration and gov departments are at fault for allowing the free loaders and criminals in in the first place , once they are in , they are in for good

I would agree with all the above comments
My gripe is that when I was paid off and was told to keep my stamp right by signing on, they made me feel like shit on their shoes even though I have worked all my days.I eventually walked out told them to stick it.

The trouble with programmes like this is that it makes the general public think that everyone who is on benefits is a workshy scrounger. I did'nt watch it,like a lot of you,I thought it would just make me seethe.
I got the general gist of the prog from eveyone at work talking about it.
I bet that they had hours of footage showing the plight of people who wanted work and could'nt find it,or those on poor wages or zero hours contracts,but that would'nt make the trashy tv show that most of the Bigbro viewing generation want to see.
I totally agree that there is a portion of wasters/scoungers among the unemployed, but i'd like to bet that they are in a minority.
This government makes the statement that they would like to get people off benefits and into payed employment.Bit dificult when there aren't even enough jobs for those who want to work.
Why don't they make a programme about the Mp's fiddling their expenses or is that acceptable?

4 kids, free house, Ipad, fag always in gob, X box for the eldest, taxis to run around in for the shopping (only
1/4 of a mile away) unsure about its weed habit. Life is a bed of roses.
This is only one of the many around me. Its an industry.
Benefits are to help people, not give scum a free living.
And as for no jobs, try telling that to all the hard working Poles, (how many hundred thousand?)
