Ever signed on the dole?

No. I think your theory is rubbish but I haven't actually articulated one about recent outer London price movements as I know absolutely sod all about the market.

I suspect however that it is purely a supply and demand issue rather than trickle down from the top end prime property London market. Sadly I don't know anyone who deals in lower level London property the people I know in London are either large redevelopment or prime residential specialists...

Oh so you agree with my post #26.

Oh and when you are losing an argument don't start on personal attacks.....

No because unlike you I'm not passively racist and I'm happy for anyone to buy property

And I would reduce demand by forcing banks to be even more careful when lending mortgages

How many people are fiddling the system?

Also thanks to tax credits the people who you the DM class as fiddling find it's better to be doing the minimum number of hours to qualify than to be on the dole.

Depends what you call fiddling the system. If it's Fraud i.e. claiming for people who don't exist or pretending to be a single mother when not, then probably as a percentage it's quite small. If it's playing the system , then I'd say that's widespread. Be it invalidity benefits, attendance allowance, motorbility etc etc combined for a vaguely defined 'popular' and hard to disprove incapacity such as depression, bad back etc.

We must either be a very unlucky nation with these levels of disability in our society (compared to other developed counties) OR possibly there is some leg pulling going on. Don't remember there being millions of Invacars on the road in the 1970s being disabled was less attractive then though, it tended to only include people who actually were.

What, even all those crooks with their dirty money from Russia?

By the way, is "Passively Racist" what you call somebody when you're looking for racism but can't actually find any?

Do you still get a UB40?

Do you still have to physically sign on?

Can you sign on by post if you live more than 5 miles from the nearest office?

Is the sound of the giro landing on your doormat on a Thursday morning still one of life's most satisfying sounds?

No, Yes, Dunno, Paid into bank account.

Be signing on next day after gig ends....

Hassle yeah and PITA if you get something else in two weeks or less but in three months you'll be glad you did because they wont backdate.
3 months = 13x £72 = almost £1000 that you might find would have been useful at this point down the line.
