Exactly by the time your rent, council tax has been paid and you get your giro it amounts to working a minimum wage job anyway. The benefits system is too generous. It encourages people to have kids to enable them to claim more money. Bradford where I'm from is a lost cause its full of Slovaks/Romanians and they are all on benefits and are very unpleasant ignorant people. No one even speaks English in Bradford no more. Why are they allowing people into the country to work when they can't even speak English?
Makes my blood boil, if all the men who fought for this country in the world wars could have looked into the future to the present, they would of refused to go to war.
