'Your benefits system is crazy. It's like finding a sackful of cash left on the road' 11 Years, 5 Months ago

Coming to a street near you!

With all the 'tinkering' being done by the government over benefits we're finding these gypsy foreigners are raking it in,while genuine British people are the ones getting hit.

A load of foreigners - not doing anything useful - all with their hands out? - it sounds like the Royal Family !

A total non-story !

If you can find just ONE genuine case where someone is getting something that others are not equally (unfortunately) entitled to, do let us know !

Is this why the Tories are trailing in the polls? And why The Looney Libs are so low down it's hard to find them even in the polls?

Still President Milliband and his band of Balls cometh! Cameron can live off daddy's money,Clegg having a foreign wife can no doubt live off the dole,and all the money we waste paying The EU to subsidize Spain!!

So it's ok for foreigners to become dolers, not the British ITK ?

But the difference is that most (not all) of British people on the dole have already contributed to the system.

it's impossible not to contribute to the system : VAT

a fact / claim used successfully by the last Australian conservative government when introducing a similar tax which everyone pays.

except of course large corporations like Vodaone / News Ltd / Google (and the other dozens) who avoid tax via tax shelters and force ordinary taxpayers to subside their use of road, rail and every other bit of infrastructure.

## I'd seriously dispute the fact that the Royal Family do not contribute to British life and welfare. As a tourist attraction alone they are worth billions of pounds and the idea tourists would flock to loom at empty buildings like Buck House, Changing of The Guards. Tower etc etc and so on without their having been a living entity involved is bizarre.

even the Royale family help

What MP's who just take expenses like sweets, monarch, Google, Starbucks and Amazon- what about them free loaders ? They get away paying staff little as the employers recruited by agencies.

But some have paid VAT for thirty years, some for three months.

My dad's local football ground had gypsies parking on the pitch and car park took days for them to move, they planned it carefully as they knew there was not a fixture of 3 weeks, they did a lot of damage that cost thousands.

Non league teams are struggling and every penny is budgeted carefully, on players, stadium repairs, facilities, sponsorship does not bring loads as they are normally from a local hotel, fans sponsoring a goal, radio stations or rag. Did the gypsies pay for the damage no, the club did and pensioners who used their own time and expense.

Dolers are really the problems of everything I don't think ITK.

I know Spain well,they don't pay out benefits like Britain does,so for a foreigner to receive benefits they have to have paid in.
Take a look at whole areas where you see families living out of tents and cars,and that's the locals! Immigrants get nothing....you'd love it ITK,seeing all those poor kids suffering

What absurd nonsense !

Companies - which employ THOUSANDS - in the same league as the dolers - who contribute nothing?

Your comments about VAT is equally absurd ... We pay the dolers and should be grateful to get a tiny bit back in tax?

No wonder the last Labour government drove us to the brink of bankruptcy with thinking like that !

I volunteer to pay 50% VAT (on your basis) - for every million you give me I guarantee to give you 500K back !
