Yes - by taking away their responsibilities.

I cant imagine that anybody who actually "plans" to have a child at seventeen while they are living in a homeless hostel has had a great life, and it would be nice if she had help to sort out whatever problems are at the root of it rather than an endless supply of benefits.

MOST girls are NOT in a hostel when they get tubbed - they are at home with their parents.
I feel that we should not get involved with the "I've had a lousy childhood" brigade - leave that to the Churches etc.
We'll end up like probation - where we spend zillions and never see any results.

I expect they will qualify for the new house in the area she wanted now.

Yes - I wonder how those struggling to pay a £200K mortgage on their homes feel when she gets one FREE (just for opening her legs - enough)?

PLUS she gets £38,000 TAX FREE spending money !

It doesn't indicate that all people on benefits are the same, but there is a type of person across all the classes who appear to have no forethought or self awareness.

My favourite bit is ... " "I see other people in the paper and it makes me sick. They shouldn't just get a new home handed to them on a plate"


But it does encourage others to follow suit.

The ones being forced to do some work now, are thinking, "our problem is that we didn't knock out enough kids" !

They also breed this mentality into their own offspring ... a woman with 11 kids (who will each knock out another 11)?

I've long said these people see children as "income" - they never want to know them and couldn't care less where they are - UNTIL its time to fill in the claims forms !

I understand the problems,but I still cant help finding the whole idea of having children that you cant afford to keep or accommodate yourself quite baffling. (and fascinating)

The problem with the screaming headlines is that it feeds into the fantasies of many - and I would not names on here - who think a rort like this is indicative of the millions of others who receive benefits.

fortunately the crew on King of Hits are far to sensible and reasonable to buy into this. Aren't they ?

Or when a middle class citizen defrauds a bank should be declare a shocking example of middle class behaviour ?

Or when a Hooray Henry is busted with drugs should we fence of Mayfair & Belgravia as unsafe ghettos ?

What about a coffee shop chain that uses Britain's decades of infrastructure building achieved through taxing all, to open shops and then channel profits back to some tax haven ?. An indication that all companies are bent ?

## further lectures on civics will be conducted in the local pub. Do come a'pubing with me. Mine's a large one.
