No must be ITK's.

I wonder why she bought supplies from the high street when she could get them much cheaper elsewhere?

Another freeloader.

The government promised to be hard on them...not bloody likely.

I wish the lady and her family the best.

Finding work, keeping work or managing a business is all very tough for many people indeed (Obviously not everyone).

£26,000 is not a lot of money to start a business. In 2017, how many UK stock market new listings will collapse with been given often in the millions "to have a go". Of course those hand outs are acceptable!!!.

I do not like TV programs or any criticism of the people on welfare as it is not a nice position to be in. And the real problem is society does not care for it's own. So the programs should focus on what could be done. I see one council has build very simple container homes "just like that". The problems mostly are very simply solved and at a fraction of the overall UK budget if their was "heart" within the people responsible and public in general.

Criticism should only be justified when each and every individual is supported into self sufficeny with housing, food and work. Not this hit and miss approach that exists.

At any point in time, if the clock was stopped and statistics collected then it would be seen clearly that businesses needed and able to succeed will be x and the number of jobs available y

X + y totalling z plus those self supporting or family supported will still show a huge gap of needed sources of income to what is available.

This very simple concept is as hard for the vast majority of critical UK people to understand as it is for them to understand that in court cases there are false accusers even faced with the fact that the individual themselves lie as do those they encounter.

Remember that not all business can succeed as people can only spend a pound once. So in the ladies case their are many trying to get that pound. (Belief "i.e. market ecomony" thinks new business advertsisng etc automatically is the answer forgetting there are limits)
