Yes, and some of us know people who genuinely need help through no fault of their own as well as those who know how to work the system and think they are owed something.pjh75

Good to see you back JT. I will be in Hull tomorrow morning (Staithes Rd) with 5 tons of pig.There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore and who always will. Don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it in your future.Comment

The only time I was on benefits was 16 years ago when my marriage broke up after 18 years leaving me with 4 boys to raise, my ex only had to pay £12.50p for each child a week as he was self employed and lied about his income this he paid untill they reached the age of 19 it never changed and If I wanted more I had to take him to court which meant I had to pay. I did get legal aid but paid this off a few years ago.
I went to work but was only allowed to earn £15 a week as after this amount pound for pound the money was deducted and as my youngest was only 4 at the time it wasnt possible to earn enough. Luckily for me I met someone who was prepared to take on me and my boys and we had a daughter and I have never been on benefits since.
Lots of people have genuine reasons but even more dont.Gardening ..... begins with daybreak
