Quite right, Mr Reason.
Can we just explode one more "myth" ?
The idea that socialists are caring ?
They don't give a toss about the 5 million currently on the social housing waiting lists - they would sooner have bedrooms standing empty.
So much for their "caring" side .... it's really "sod you - I'm alright" |

I'm all for this so called bedroom tax, why should taxpayers pay for big houses for one person ? I have downsized so many times in the past, when I was working. My girlfriend wanted to me to move in with her so I did.
I agree the benefits system is fantastic if it's not abused and money wasted on booze and drugs. I think the government need to bring back the FJF, the employees still pay tax so it goes back to the government, seems cheaper than the work programme where cost of £5 billion is wasted, on a fail programme.

The Conservative party doesn't want to kill anybody. It wouldn't stand up in court as an accusation levelled at them, so stop with the emotive socialist headline grabbing statements.
