Oh Dear

[vetran]

If they give her a council house?

What does she do with Granny's house? Does she sell it and pay full rent on the council palace or does she give it to one of the older btrats so they can start breeding?

[zathras]

Good luck to her.

I'm must be the only one that thinks she's got her (financial) head screwed on.

We live in a world where the value of work is diminishing: for many it's 'not enough wages to buy a house', 'not enough to start a family', progression within work is limited even if you excel at what you do, security is poor, education is no longer the avenue of betterment it once was and taxes are high.

Many of you actually have a certain aspect of working class attitude in that you believe many great things can be achieved with 'hard work'; and for today, for us, this is correct - but only because we have positioned ourselves in a financially rewarding industry but we cannot expect this of everyone. Anyway, this will not always be the case - hence 'plan B's'. Remember: the rich don't work. 'New' remember: the underclass don't work. Who's the fool?

Have to be honest I think you are right. The mugs in this instance are the taxpayer. Just read some of the absolute tripe rubbish she is spouting. Having kids requires two concenting adults. She had 'em. The father should be paying at least a contribution.

"Then there's my cigs. I smoke 40 a day and I like vodka and cokes. You've got to have some pleasures in life."

So go out and work for them! Society does not owe you anything more than a roof over your head and food in your belly. If your ill it could help with that.

And if you want any proof of what is wrong hows about this

But now she's demanding that the council finds her a monster SIX BEDROOM one for her brood. She moaned: "I want two houses to be made into one.

"It's not fair that they haven't offered me one. If I had a couple more children they'd have to find me something larger."

Does not enter her head to go and work for bigger house she automatically expects someone to pick up the tab.

All her life someone else seems to have paid. She even inherited the house from her Grandmother. She has no morgage. People work all their lives to be in that position. And what the hell is her oldest doing. He's 17 and could easily go out and get a job!

I well remember being told by a council that the best way of getting a house was to get someone knocked up and that was 20 years ago. Things have not get any better it seems.

Was that a quote by Maggie T?

[milanbenes]

this is indeed, an Oh Dear

well done

Milan.

Maybe if she's earning, I could sell her a good shagging for a good price...
Would she provide a VAT receipt?

Good luck to her.

No you are not, I agree with you. If I was a 16 year cold with no education and without the nouse to be an Alan Sugar, and I was presented with an oasis of state funded welfare I would do the same. All she needs to do is get herself pregnant and society takes care of her. The problem of course is that one day the money tree from which all this welfare comes will one day wither and die.

This all follows on from the stories in the press over the weekend that suggest the birth rate is falling. This I understand will have the effect of fewer people to pay enough to tax to support our ageing population. So this woman is the obvious solution to the problem.

However the problem is not so much that the population is falling, it is the fact that middle class families are having less children which means that the numbers of people in wealth generating jobs is going to fall dramatically.

I thought the article stated that she did not work, so she is certainly not "working" class

My point exactly, it's not that middle class children are not having enough kids it's that neither working or middle class are having enough kids. Entrepreneurs tend to come from working class backgrounds, whereas middle class kids tend to make very good middle management bulletin board skivers.

No. Only the English aristocracy call their sons Beckham.

I see, this woman is working class then?

I'd like to submit this as a candidate for the Oh Dear (MilanBenesXP) collection.

This woman makes the Rochdale Swamp Donkey seem infertile:
