        The wealthy seem to have managed pretty well on not having to do an awful lot for centuries. It's about time more of us had a go at it
        Jackie Onassis said she hated doing nothing. And thought the idea of working 20 hours a week was good.

          Here's an idea, how about spending that money on improved health, infrastructure and pensions for WORKING people, and those lazy ***** not working get FECK ALL, which is what they DESERVE.

          Most of the people not working are rich. About time the lazy feckers were made to work.....

              Interestingly the idea appeals to left wingers and right wingers. Left wingers as they don't want wage slaves. Right wingers as they don't like the cost of determining benefits.

                      From your application to be a CUK mod?

                      I *heard* that you were a slum dunk. Until that Vicar thread.

                      Sort of like what rivers of blood did to Enoch Powell.
