HTHI said you are a lazy good for nothing dickhead that gives contractors a bad name. The fact you resort to petty insults (which 5 year old did you pay to come up with that BTW?) rather than defend your point rather proves mine.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!

Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.
No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.Comment

Cheers Kal :-)Originally posted by kal View PostSurely we all pay enough tax (be it PAYE or CT) to justify claiming JSA if we need to, oh and be nice to PC, he seems alright to me!Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

Nah. Its more than £6500 aint it? Are you sure this applies to contrib based JSA too?Originally posted by Gym beast View PostThey'll pay you full rate up to about £6500 in savings. After that it's a sliding scale up to £16k, at which you'll be told to leave the premises.
So come June I I generally like to cash out, keep the excess rolled up in fake dumbbell tubes in my garden shed (no trips to the cashpoint) or in trading accounts, though I suggest not trading whilst signing - unless you're good at it, obviously, and if so, why have you been reading this anyway??!?!?Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment

To be fair, the no intention of working thing does cover about 50% of the people in the south wales valleys who claim benefits.Originally posted by doodab View PostYou posted advising how you go about claiming benefits when you have no intention of working. Aside from being fraud i.e. illegal (and if you're caught that will be a problem for your contracting career) the attitude itself gives contractors a bad name. No amount of random italicisation will change that.
I hope you are caught. Why should I pay my taxes to keep lazy tulipes like you in comfort?Rhyddid i lofnod psychocandy!!!!Comment
