I once saw a mother trying to shop lift milk in Aldi I felt like if u can’t afford milk with a child in a pram life must be bad. I put milk and bits extra in mine handed it to the woman outside she started to cry was very grateful. She said she was so ashamed but she had no milk for her child’s breakfast. I don’t earn a massive amount but I could buy extra milk bread cereal biscuits ect a 10 worth. These people wasteing money there are genuine people who need it
Well done I once did something the same a woman who I knew had through no fault of her own was on benefits was at the till with her few groceries could pay for them all I paid for the few bits she couldn't afford and likewise she burst into tears when thanking me outside the shop as a result my daughter gave her all the clothes her daughter had outgrown. I also went to the charity shops with her so she could buy clothes for herself and other children. In time she got a council house in a nice area and got a job to this day we are good friends.
Where is the other parent? If you help her once what's going to happen when that milk runs out? Will she shoplift again? Probably she has a habit which she feeds instead of her child @ Eileen O'neill
Daniel, especially entitled. Says he's entitled to free housing. Entitled to top up of free food after hes gambled away his benefits. He's not owed anything if he wastes it, the money isn't free. Gvmnt should put him in counselling for addiction, giving him food only and basic shelter, maybe in a rehab group home. If he blows all those chances, maybe he shouldn't receive any further help. Just my opinion, I dislike entitled users.
@@margaretr5701 It seems like entitlement is spreading like a disease. I live in Germany and it is exactly the same here. Certain people never want to contribute to the system, all they want is do nothing and get paid nicely for it. They throw a tantrum and get away with it. I knew a woman who inherited 600.000 Euro, after tax she still had 400.000. If she had spent 2000 a month (which for 1 person is a good income) that would be 24.000 a year , it could have lasted 16 years. She was broke in under 3 years! Guess who applied for benefits and complained how little money it is compared to the lifestyle she was used to and how mean life is?
@@martinamoskale2445 I know someone who is doing exactly that! She inherited a large sum of money and is rapidly going through it, wasting it on useless items. She has been on benefits for decades and will probably be back on them again, once the money has been squandered away.
@@margaretr5701 if you give a million dollars to a poor person they will be broken a couple of years take all the money off of rich man and he will be rich in a couple of years.
That old shoplifter bird is really a nutter, the laugh on it is ridiculous. She lives in a good part of London, Fulham when so many people ( honest people ) have to leave London because they cannot afford to live there. Revolting and unjust.
She probably had the same thought. But even that job has some educational requirements she does not have. (If she actually got them though, the pay could go above what she's asking!)
Raised shoplifting to help her mum, she said. Paid her debt for her crime, then goes right back to it but better than before so she won't get caught. How does she expect not to get caught again when she's advertising it online/tv? I don't know how ahe affords all the cosmetic treatments, wigs, tatoo's, hairsresser, they cost a fortune. I suppose I should be more understanding, as she was raised from childhood as a criminal. Edit: And she seems to be trying, at least doing a good job with healthy food budgeting.
And her daughter was a bit sad she doesn’t have a nice designer kit waiting for her when she comes home...but in the next breath doesn’t want mum in prison...apples don’t falll to far from the tree
Well, she said it was a victimless crime, which still is delusional (prices raised and higher insurance cost strike against poor people the most), even if she doesn't hurt another person physically.
@@margaretr5701 She claims to have quit shoplifting. Prison and the (male) guards that punish female inmates would tend to make someone quit thieving. Describing what women go through in prison would cost me my commenting privileges here on YT. Let's just say that the "treatment" women experience from the guards in prison would carry 20 years in (ironically) prison if done in the free world.
@@margaretr5701 she said herself that she sells the stolen goods lol. If you need new shoes you should contact her she said lmao! So that's how she's paying for the extensions, nails, hair etc
The shoplifter lady says she's looking for a job. Now what better way to attract employers than reveal her decades long career as a shoplifter on national tv?
Daniel gets a new phone and he doesn't work, gets benefits, and gambles the money away. I work, try to feed a family of three, pay rent and electricity. And I can't even afford a new phone. The one I have is my boyfriend's old phone and the screen is cracked. Makes me wonder what I am doing wrong. Oh I know what it is, I am too honest
That Daniel I’ve never wanted to smack someone around the back of the head like I would that clown. He blamed everything on everyone but himself like he said benefits shouldn’t of gave him all of his money on the same day. This guy truly believes that he’s right and everyone else is wrong. Imagine being in a relationship with him I don’t think there’s someone who would put up with all the idiotic stupid decisions he makes.
If someone can't budget for two weeks that person has a problem. If you are broke from lack of income and didn't blow it on gambling or carousing around the bars I will feel sorry for you but gambling 400 pounds away when you need that money for rent, council tax, utilities and food going to the casino is asinine. For the record pensions as well as disability and retirement benefits are paid once a month in the US. That guy would REALLY have a problem living here if he can't resist temptation and budget his money. We really don't have a "benefits" system for the non-disabled without children and even if you do have a kid the (time limited) benefits are only a fraction of what they are in the UK.
These people on benefits should not be given cash but a card where they can only buy the essentials and pay their bills. No alcohol, no cigarettes and no gambling.This would be a much better system for those that misuse their benefits.
I hope people from the foodbank watch this episode. They're there to help people who really need it, not people who gamble all their money away. That guy has a lot of growing up to do and needs to get rid of the attitude of entitlement.
Food banks are there for those you legit don’t have money and are hungry ~ not those who rort the system and have a gambling problem. I’m so sick of people living the “the world owes me card” it’s pathetic. I hope they get caught
@@johannas.l.brushane2518 It is pretty bad when people enrolled in college or university need to go to a soup kitchen to eat. Your financial aid system for university enrollment needs some changes. I don't know what the London School of Economics charges in tuition and fees but I was a university accounting and taxation professor in the US for 30 years and I don't recall anyone needing to go to a soup kitchen to eat. After I retired they opened a small food pantry to assist people at my former university employer that need food but it mainly serves single mothers with children that are enrolled in courses part-time.
@@mharris5047 I don't live in UK but it's not so much the financial aid system, it's the London School of Economics educate nickle & dimers, economic journalists and happens to be geographically located near the Anglican church soup kitchen in London. Probably the same people who later suffers a trauma when they poop and realise that the council can ferment it and make a dime for the common good when trading it to gardens etc. I went as an exchange student from another european country to Exeter in 97/98 when the £ was high priced. I lived in a very modest studentaccomodation and wouldn't have thought of sneaking off meals from homeless and such.
I know this will offend you, but people with drug problems and gambling problems HAVE PROBLEMS. They are the people charities are supposed to help. THE ONES WITH PROBLEMS. If they could just not do it, they wouldn't have a bloody problem would they?
Yeah and foreign people come here and get everything handed to them. What was the point of the older generations building the country for other people?
Daniel seemed to think he was entitled to an awful lot by the number of times he used the word "entitled" in talking about things that were simply handed to him and paid for by others. Really what he was entitled to was a kick up the arse. Wonder what these people are up to these days.
@@user-cy4vw1qj9m No he needs a starve. He means to know what not having Free money actually means and everyone on your benefit system needs to not ever get cash they need to have like food boxes And rent go to the landlord, etc. No cash for cigarettes or tattoos or hair extensions or gambling....
These people ought to have to work a minimum of thirty hours a week to receive anything. Half of these people are very capable of working. Stop enabling these people and stop giving them handouts. These people are taking advantage of the system. I hope the benefit people are watching this video!
Three observations, #1 Daniel is a total waste of human space. He says entitled more than anyone on this show. #2 the shoplifter is selfish getting hair extensions instead of spending that money on her daughter. And #3 I truly feel sorry for Steven. He's actually putting forth effort and can't find any work he seems like he's genuinely wanting to turn his life around.
That Daniel with his entitled attitude is absolutely disgusting = a total waste of space.He’s just a leech. No wonder get so infuriated. Why are they even wasting time filming these tossers
@@numberone5680 he’s been trying to get work, did you actually listen? I don’t think he has a bad attitude, he’s just discouraged. He’s also right, if he wasn’t right he’d have a job, but clearly the fact he’s been to prison holds him back.
@@numberone5680 Have you even the slightest idea how devastating facial scars can be for the victim? Everywhere they go they are stared at, people recoil at them and get nervous and every time they look in the mirror they are reminded of the traumatic event. How about fixing your own bad attitude before projecting your shit onto other people?
ABSOLUTELY after gambling a way all that Monet and all the expensive things they are paying off. Always has a cigarette in has a cigarette in his hand. The worst this is the sense of entitlement!
Cut him off, give him one more chance by giving him addiction counselling, provide the basics, food and a bed, maybe in a shared rehab centre. If he messes up again, I don't feel he should be gvmnt and taxpayers responsibility. Perhaps he should suffer for a while in order to appreciate what he has. Just my opinion. NO, he's NOT entitled - (his favourite word) - to a nice free flat, just because he's born in the UK. He's taking from those who really need... and as he says, ...'why should I work when I get more on benefits'... tells me all I need to know about him.
All of these types of shows l have seen people going to food banks. ALWAYS have money to smoke and drink. Thus is why l agate givi g to these types of charities !
Even men should keep a bottle of acetone based nail polish remover around. In the days of using overhead machines while teaching a bottle of nail polish remover was a professor's best friend. What I did was use a permanent marker to write on the clear plastic sheets we used and if I needed to change something I used the nail polish remover to erase and then my permanent marker to correct it. Nail polish remover also removes some paints from paint brushes and I had one student that used straight acetone (you don't want to touch that without gloves, there is a big difference between diluted acetone in nail polish remover and a gallon of straight acetone) to remove barnacles from boats.
I actually think she is quite charming. She is not attractive looking but she seems like a character. I feel bad that she has all of the tattoos (most of them probably done in prison), I think she would have more of a chance if she didn't look like she did 20 years in prison.
Yup. She seems pretty disturbed and completely lacks empathy. Just hearing her saying "I shoplift, no one's getting hurt". Such an arrogant, entitled and narcissistic person. Poor daughter.
@@mharris5047 Her tattoos aren't* that bad, I've seen waaay worse in the hick town I live in. homemade " fuck you on the cheek bones, nazi logos etc. *Typo fixed*
What B.S. Daniel spouts - "It's their fault b/c they gave me all of the money all in one go and I gambled it away so it's their fault." When you don't have to work for wages but get handed this money freely - the sense of entitlement is ENORMOUS!
Kim's cackling laugh..is a money maker right there. Voice acting or just the laugh for phone messages, Halloween witch dolls, and so on. May scare some but to me it's hilarious.
It's just Evil , notice she does it when she thinks she's getting away eith something!! A lot of the time she talks so fast you can't understand what she's saying!! I gave up.....
These people are great examples of what can happen to you when you think you're above being responsible and answerable for your own actions. There are so many people like this. Not claiming any fault or responsibility for anything. Sad and unbelievable.
I've watched a lot of these episodes & yet this is the very first one where I'm actually really cross 🤬 with these people. The entitlement absolutely stunned me silent, that never happens. UK benefits office ~ please cut Daniel off, completely. He needs a massive reality check, him & his friend. He's whining about how's he's so hard done by so it's obvious he's not appreciating what he's receiving. The gambling?? No, he needs counselling or GA for that. Just, just........... Argh 🤬🤬🤬
What about that poor guy with the dog who looks for jobs every day but doesn't get one because he got busted growing weed? I felt bad for him. Stupid law ruined his life for no good reason.
I’m surprised that any shopkeeper would allow Kim through their front door. She is very recognizable. And Daniel can’t afford to buy food, but he can buy cigarettes. And he feeds all his friends from the food he just got from the food bank.
“My moneys my money and I’ll do what I want with it” LMFAO. Dolt, you legit are spending someone else’s money. Lolololol Chilling in his pretty purple bed with his nails chewed to the bone. Lololol 🤦♀️ #dur
Daniel makes me sick. He never takes responsibility for anything. Blames everyone else. He literally thinks he’s entitled to everything free. And don’t the benefits ppl watch these episodes?! Why don’t they loose their payments?
Ok, take away their benefits. Now they're homeless. What do you want to do now? Have them starve to death on the street? If they never had the benefits in the first place, which nobody in this show should be getting, then they wouldn't be in this situation. This is what happens when you create an entire class of adults that are basically children of the state. And people still think the solution is to just give them more. Now there's no homes for people who actually need them, but people want more of what doesn't exist given away to more people who don't want to work for it. Lunacy.
@@frankvonfrauner It’s been shown before that the best way to keep people down is by giving them a little, over time this reduces their inherent ambition and thus the same people can stay in power
Nobody should be allowed to starve BUT when you gamble away all your food money, the only entitlement they should get is 2 weeks worth of bread & a jar of peanut butter!
My goodness....this lady can get as many hair extensions, lip fillers, botox etc...even if she won 50 million on the lotto..... at the end of the day all she has to do is open her mouth and any man or woman with any brain in their head could not stand being in her company.....God love her....
As long as she didn't steal from me I'd chill with her lol. She's clearly doing something to get more than just benefits. I have a friend who use to steal for many years. I told her a song as you don't steal from me we're good. In all the 15 years we've been friends she never stole a dime from me.
A shop lifter is a criminal. I find it funny how this woman does not believe thieving is a crime. I live in Australia. It was colonised by pommy thieves.
Omg Danny....his bad choices are somehow everyone else's fault...but, according to him, he's also entitled to everything. As for Kim, no amount of botox or hair extensions can salvage a criminal/ personality disordered individual.
Question he says “ why should I bother getting a get a job when I’m earning as much on benefits. “ Answer for self respect, integrity, routine and above all to contribute to society , family and your community ... quite simple
That shoplifter is mental! Seriously, the way she just cackles and walks around like she has no clue. She should be ashamed of herself. Being so selfish with a young daughter and with all those beauty treatments, she should give it up because they’re not working.
Here in America, there is no loosely goosey assistance. You have to jump through hoops and follow strict rules, or you lose any type of assistance. There are limits and time frames here.
That doesn’t make it right. There are people who need benefits and absolutely should get them. This programme went out and sought out the worst of the worst for ratings. The US benefits system is nothing for you to be proud of.
I live in Colorado. About two years ago, I tried to get some food stamps for me and my mom. But they county calculated my income and my mom's SSI. I got a letter from them saying we made too much. I was like I wasn't going to be on it long, just to help feed me and my 80 year old mom. But we managed. She did pass away in March. So, money is tight.
We don’t get paid an allotment in America and the only thing is welfare which is around$400 a month and most cases you have to pay it back. We get food stamps if you are under an insanely low income with children. There are other cases of course but it’s not easy. We do get free phones with data … and we have based on income housing so it’s free if you qualify and have no income but if you qualify and get child support or any type of income you pay 1/3 market rent.
Well to shop lift i reckon she was supporting a drug habbit as well ...and gives us a story of supporting her mum ...possibly jalf a story because shes good at telling them .
I hear you Daniel. I got paid all of my monthly salary in one go at the end of the month and gambled it away too………however my employers are to blame because they credited my bank account with my entire monthly salary all in ONE GO. Imagine the audacity. Then to top it all off my dog is just as much to blame because he is supposed to be a Guard Dog but he didn’t guard me against gambling away my entire salary. To the pound with him!!!!
If this guy says ENTITLED one more time........ he's what's wrong with society. You're entitled to the opportunity to live a good life through hardwork and sacrifice. Not taking a piss and using resources that could benefit those in dire straights.
@Westwood, California If the UK had the same policies as the US...I'd get a check, free year in a nice hotel, cell phone, food/clothing/medical, education, AND a free plane ticket!!
Likewise it's NOT the shopkeepers money; it comes from the customer 🙃 It's up to him to decide what he's spending it on. Sure, it's poor decision making (if there is any), that's why his behaviour is categorized as "addiction". Humans come in many different shapes with many different addictions/ habits. It's funny to read comments which claim him feeling entitled, suggesting he's a waste of space/ oxygen, expressing mixed emotions about Daniel getting groceries from the foodbank. Now, how awkward seeing YT users blaming Daniel of being entitled while they themselves feel entitled enough to judge the lad. Don't force your moral standards upon other members of society, luckily we do live in a free society in which we're all equal, and there are no such requirements to apply for charity Like he actually says so himself; it's his choice to spend the money on gambling or getting drunk, on hair extensions or he could just toss it in the churches collection box.
@@prinsespluis are you serious writing this comment? What Daniel is doing is criminal because while he sits on his arse there are people working a 9 to 5 and Britain exploits developing poorer nations in the Commonwealth to fund this 💩💩 your crazy in the head really.
I donate to food banks regularly and this guy makes me want to not bother. Why should I give even more of my money up to help freeloaders like this guy? He literally had 400 quid in his pocket and blew it all.
She actually would be great at Loss Prevention. If she could get someone to hire her. She would be able to spot shoplifters and save the shop a lot of money.
Why would anyone want to publicly announce they are a thief. I don't get it. She said she's not a criminal but announces to the damn world she's a thief. What a disgusting human. I'd be embarrassed to associate with such trash.
I wonder just how much these people actually cost the tax payer? Benefits, jail, legal aid courts, free health care etc. the cost per reprobate must be phenomenal.
WOW. I love all of these British episodes. This one takes the cake as they say. Here in the USA, you go straight to Federal prison if the abuse of any benefits has been done. Insurance fraud, etc. That is a federal offense. They will give you some food allowance after you are out of prison I think for a limited time. That's it. It is always federal, not state. They are changing things about no federal parole I think. It depends on the crime. State has a parole. Federal doesn't.
Uk is the only country I think that offer this kind of benefits..in Brazil only really poor receive benefits and is impossible to live using only benefits..definitely people still need a full time.job
Nonsense. Few people go to jail for benefits fraud. It is a misdemeanor under a certain amount. Food stamp and disability fraud are rampant. As well as under reported income for subsidized housing. I've worked in public housing so I know the games. No one I've ever seen has been arrested for fraud. Police and courts are only involved in extreme cases of fraud. The police will not even respond if called because they and the courts do not want to be bothered with food stamp offenses or inter-office public housing issues. States also have felony statutes and yes, there is indeed parole in federal prisons. I've yet to see a federal prisoner release where parole conditions were not imposed. State and federal benefits are based on need, and discrimination in determining who receives them is illegal. Being an ex prisoner cannot be held against you if you apply for assistance. Our public housing is full of convicted felons on disability payments who receive food stamps, medicaid or medicare depending on age. Private landlords are also barred from discrimination of ex prisoners. That comes under Fair Housing Act.
@@PatrickFDolan what state are you in? I'm in MS but from TN. Yes, they finally are giving parole to low crime in the Federal prison I think. They do give good behavior a day each month considered early release. State gives parole. Federal doesn't. They're trying to do parole again due to the pandemic and over crowding. Sorry I typed too much.
Imagine how much money she could get by selling all the clothes on the rail!! Kim's flat is a dream home for most people who are dying for somewhere to sleep. Ungrateful
I can’t understand how she pays 165 pounds a week for a flat in Fulham?? I paid 120 a week for a room in student housing in Oxford, and 645 a month for a room in a normal house after that??
@@DX-d your comment is laughable. We are still in the midst of a pandemic and you can't trust anyone. Regardless of their living situation. It's not up to me to home them. It's the government. You keyboard warrior
A final word as it is all just so ridiculous: Just imagine the cost of funding all of this - and the lack of any return in terms of jobs done, output, production, etc, etc. Then add in the entire administrative mountain of all the people who are handing out all the forms and the boxes which need to be ticked and ticked again. It's surely one of the biggest industries in the country.
These beneficiaries need to be bonded as volunteers to local charities as a condition of them being able to claim a benefit. Particularly, Daniel. He could definitely use some well-seasoned perspective, in my opinion. As in personal accountability. His whole, "Can't tell me what to do" ethic isn't going to make him any more employable. He needs to change his expectations, or have them changed for him. The name "Job Centre' is one of the biggest misnomers, as clearly, the gov't is not really doing it's job, by adequately supervising people who are claiming job -seeker's or other benefits. As an entity, they are a poor example, themselves.
Another episode as I head off to WORK....watching people who think they "deserve" a comfortable life at the taxpayer expense before I go to WORK makes me feel funny....I wonder if Kim will make benefits WORK if they lowered her amount.?..Dan would WORK to gamble any extra away....What's the key word? WORK....GET A JOB!!!!
@Jessica Bellamy yep I belief she would still be stealing all kinds of things food, clothes, make-up etc, she may not steal for profiteering anymore but definitely for herself.
I spent 30 years working in retail and, let me tell you, shoplifting, is not a victimless crime! You steal from the store, you steal from the people who work there, and you steal from paying customers because the store is forced to raise the prices to cover their losses. This is not a victimless crime! Anyone committing this crime should kiss their benefits goodbye!
Benefits should only be paid to those who REALLY need them because they are truly disabled, ill, single parents etc. But simply being too lazy to get a job is just disgusting. These people should be forced to work for the community picking up litter in the streets/rivers/fields and only if they bring in enough kilos of litter they will get their benefits in vouchers, so they can't use the money for anything but food, bills, etc because the voucher will only be valid at certain places. And buying tobacco should not be allowed with these vouchers. And if you suddenly feel to "ill" to pick up litter for eight hours each day, then you have to go to this one certain doctor who will check how "ill" you really are and if he says no, you're good, then you will pick up litter or not get any benefit vouchers at all. Maybe that would heal them from their laziness and entitlement. Welfare is a great thing but should only be available to those you really need it. Because they are truly thankful and don't gamble or smoke or use beauty parlours, they just want to survive but life dealt them a bad hand.
A shoplifter and a thief is the same thing, which in turn means yes, you're a criminal. A leopards spots never change. She's living the good life 😹 for 45 years! As a kleptomaniac, it's not easy to stop, but she needs to grow up, get her priorities in check. I love this show 😆
she's not a klepto. kleptomania is a diagnosis. they steal things that don't matter, pen lids, tops of bottle caps etc. items that have no use or value, it's an impulse and not done to benefit them monetarily it's just to fix an urge. I hate that people use the term synonymous with thief, it's not the same. anyone who steals to benefit them ex. clothing, purses, money etc is a thief not a klepto
I believe in certain ways that some but not all deserve a second chance on work. Sometimes people just can’t be trusted especially that thief ‘the cackling witch ‘. Store owners beware of the woman with the broom.
There's something about the commentary of these (British) shows that's just so funny to me. It's like subtle sarcasm or something, it's frickin hilarious.
For people who have no experience, do voluteer work. Gain experience and contribute back to society. Sometimes, volunteer work can lead to full-time employment.
Becusr the welfare system in Briton is so ridiculously easy and generous. I don't know when this was filmed but they would be getting away with this under universal credit!

What a waste of a human being.....
Kim should start a shoplifting security consulting company for shops. She could come in and tell them where their week spots are.
That’s is a absolutely great idea.!! 🙌🏻😂 best comment by far. Productive thinking 💭 ❤️
She probably had the same thought. But even that job has some educational requirements she does not have.
(If she actually got them though, the pay could go above what she's asking!)
Weak
She said she was not a criminal, but she was a shoplifter. What a sad woman! She is in denial!
Raised shoplifting to help her mum, she said.
Paid her debt for her crime, then goes right back to it but better than before so she won't get caught.
How does she expect not to get caught again when she's advertising it online/tv?
I don't know how ahe affords all the cosmetic treatments, wigs, tatoo's, hairsresser, they cost a fortune.
I suppose I should be more understanding, as she was raised from childhood as a criminal.
Edit: And she seems to be trying, at least doing a good job with healthy food budgeting.
And her daughter was a bit sad she doesn’t have a nice designer kit waiting for her when she comes home...but in the next breath doesn’t want mum in prison...apples don’t falll to far from the tree
Well, she said it was a victimless crime, which still is delusional (prices raised and higher insurance cost strike against poor people the most), even if she doesn't hurt another person physically.
@@margaretr5701 She claims to have quit shoplifting. Prison and the (male) guards that punish female inmates would tend to make someone quit thieving. Describing what women go through in prison would cost me my commenting privileges here on YT. Let's just say that the "treatment" women experience from the guards in prison would carry 20 years in (ironically) prison if done in the free world.
@@margaretr5701 she said herself that she sells the stolen goods lol. If you need new shoes you should contact her she said lmao! So that's how she's paying for the extensions, nails, hair etc
The shoplifter lady says she's looking for a job. Now what better way to attract employers than reveal her decades long career as a shoplifter on national tv?
As if she doesn't have this thing called a criminal record that gets checked?
And all those hideous tattoos
Daniel is without a doubt the world's greatest "lazy benefits scrounger".
He's a LOSER.
Daniel gets a new phone and he doesn't work, gets benefits, and gambles the money away. I work, try to feed a family of three, pay rent and electricity. And I can't even afford a new phone. The one I have is my boyfriend's old phone and the screen is cracked. Makes me wonder what I am doing wrong. Oh I know what it is, I am too honest
That Daniel I’ve never wanted to smack someone around the back of the head like I would that clown. He blamed everything on everyone but himself like he said benefits shouldn’t of gave him all of his money on the same day. This guy truly believes that he’s right and everyone else is wrong. Imagine being in a relationship with him I don’t think there’s someone who would put up with all the idiotic stupid decisions he makes.
If someone can't budget for two weeks that person has a problem. If you are broke from lack of income and didn't blow it on gambling or carousing around the bars I will feel sorry for you but gambling 400 pounds away when you need that money for rent, council tax, utilities and food going to the casino is asinine. For the record pensions as well as disability and retirement benefits are paid once a month in the US. That guy would REALLY have a problem living here if he can't resist temptation and budget his money. We really don't have a "benefits" system for the non-disabled without children and even if you do have a kid the (time limited) benefits are only a fraction of what they are in the UK.
Yeah, I don't think he got enough spankings growing up.
@@mharris5047 In the U.S. some people have a "payee", thus recieving payment once a week.
Imagine having a son like that! Truly made me have PTSD watching him. Not sure how these kids get so privileged when they are so broke!
He is apparently bad at gambling to.
These people on benefits should not be given cash but a card where they can only buy the essentials and pay their bills. No alcohol, no cigarettes and no gambling.This would be a much better system for those that misuse their benefits.
I hope people from the foodbank watch this episode. They're there to help people who really need it, not people who gamble all their money away. That guy has a lot of growing up to do and needs to get rid of the attitude of entitlement.
Absolutely!

A lot of the people the Anglican church caters to in London at their soupkitchen are students from London School of Economics.
@@johannas.l.brushane2518 It is pretty bad when people enrolled in college or university need to go to a soup kitchen to eat. Your financial aid system for university enrollment needs some changes. I don't know what the London School of Economics charges in tuition and fees but I was a university accounting and taxation professor in the US for 30 years and I don't recall anyone needing to go to a soup kitchen to eat. After I retired they opened a small food pantry to assist people at my former university employer that need food but it mainly serves single mothers with children that are enrolled in courses part-time.

Around here it’s a lot of addicts who use the food bank. Food banks are so short now it’s sad.

the old way says she's entitled to have one hand cut off for stealing..... but huh, back then you could always tell a thief :-\
Yeah and foreign people come here and get everything handed to them.
What was the point of the older generations building the country for other people?
To be fair, if the UK didn't spent money on foreign wars, people could afford houses and other benefits would be available

Daniel seemed to think he was entitled to an awful lot by the number of times he used the word "entitled" in talking about things that were simply handed to him and paid for by others. Really what he was entitled to was a kick up the arse. Wonder what these people are up to these days.

These people ought to have to work a minimum of thirty hours a week to receive anything. Half of these people are very capable of working. Stop enabling these people and stop giving them handouts. These people are taking advantage of the system. I hope the benefit people are watching this video!
Three observations, #1 Daniel is a total waste of human space. He says entitled more than anyone on this show. #2 the shoplifter is selfish getting hair extensions instead of spending that money on her daughter. And #3 I truly feel sorry for Steven. He's actually putting forth effort and can't find any work he seems like he's genuinely wanting to turn his life around.
He’s only a minor criminal, not a killer or burglar. He can get a job if he’d change his bad attitude.

Kim apartment is amazing , I bet it’s better then most ppl working minimal wage doing 2 jobs
Daniel is a disgusting excuse for a human being, taking food from a food bank that he doesn't need. Shame on him
ABSOLUTELY after gambling a way all that Monet and all the expensive things they are paying off. Always has a cigarette in has a cigarette in his hand. The worst this is the sense of entitlement!
Cut him off, give him one more chance by giving him addiction counselling, provide the basics, food and a bed, maybe in a shared rehab centre. If he messes up again, I don't feel he should be gvmnt and taxpayers responsibility.
Perhaps he should suffer for a while in order to appreciate what he has. Just my opinion.
NO, he's NOT entitled - (his favourite word) - to a nice free flat, just because he's born in the UK. He's taking from those who really need... and as he says, ...'why should I work when I get more on benefits'... tells me all I need to know about him.
He is a entitled slimeball
All of these types of shows l have seen people going to food banks. ALWAYS have money to smoke and drink. Thus is why l agate givi g to these types of charities !
He might be doing that out of deeply rooted pain. Pain affects your thought process. He could care less about that food because of his pain
That first woman had a cackle instead of a laugh.
🧹
Hell yea
A very annoying cackle at that!!!
Irritating

So this is England that we keep hearing about during those protests.
Kim will be shoplifting before you can blink
Kim buy a bottle of polish, remover, tweezer and a box of home color. Sorted.
Even men should keep a bottle of acetone based nail polish remover around. In the days of using overhead machines while teaching a bottle of nail polish remover was a professor's best friend. What I did was use a permanent marker to write on the clear plastic sheets we used and if I needed to change something I used the nail polish remover to erase and then my permanent marker to correct it. Nail polish remover also removes some paints from paint brushes and I had one student that used straight acetone (you don't want to touch that without gloves, there is a big difference between diluted acetone in nail polish remover and a gallon of straight acetone) to remove barnacles from boats.
I wanna know where she got the money for her tattoos
@@fabiwilliams4644 She probably had them done in prison. How she got the 25 soups and 15 honey buns to pay for it, I don't know.

This was absolutely the hardest episode of this show I have ever watched, due to the cackling old hen! 😵
Aint that the truth nerve racking .
I actually think she is quite charming. She is not attractive looking but she seems like a character. I feel bad that she has all of the tattoos (most of them probably done in prison), I think she would have more of a chance if she didn't look like she did 20 years in prison.
Yup. She seems pretty disturbed and completely lacks empathy. Just hearing her saying "I shoplift, no one's getting hurt". Such an arrogant, entitled and narcissistic person. Poor daughter.
@@mharris5047 Her tattoos aren't* that bad, I've seen waaay worse in the hick town I live in. homemade " fuck you on the cheek bones, nazi logos etc. *Typo fixed*

What B.S. Daniel spouts - "It's their fault b/c they gave me all of the money all in one go and I gambled it away so it's their fault." When you don't have to work for wages but get handed this money freely - the sense of entitlement is ENORMOUS!
Oh lort poor Daniel. It's never his fault
Kim's cackling laugh..is a money maker right there. Voice acting or just the laugh for phone messages, Halloween witch dolls, and so on. May scare some but to me it's hilarious.

How did she manage to get a 2 bed apartment in Fulham. A criminal who made 2 mill seriously unbelievable.
Precisely, even local authority flats run by Hammersmith and Fulham are not only hard to get. But bloody expensive when up in the private market
Despite the criminal record, Steve seems a decent bloke who just needs a chance. I wish him well.
2 words I hear constantly watching this show is “Entitled” and “Deserve”……that shit is mind blowing.
These people are great examples of what can happen to you when you think you're above being responsible and answerable for your own actions. There are so many people like this. Not claiming any fault or responsibility for anything. Sad and unbelievable.
Massive entitlement
Absolutely!!!
”My money is my money” says the man who is going into other peoples paychecks calling then his own..
I've watched a lot of these episodes & yet this is the very first one where I'm actually really cross 🤬 with these people. The entitlement absolutely stunned me silent, that never happens. UK benefits office ~ please cut Daniel off, completely. He needs a massive reality check, him & his friend. He's whining about how's he's so hard done by so it's obvious he's not appreciating what he's receiving. The gambling?? No, he needs counselling or GA for that. Just, just........... Argh 🤬🤬🤬
What about that poor guy with the dog who looks for jobs every day but doesn't get one because he got busted growing weed? I felt bad for him. Stupid law ruined his life for no good reason.
I feel exactly the same.
Most of the time people are ignorant or unlucky or ignorant. But two people on this show were nothing but scammers imo
You prefer when they act like they're victims and prostrate themselves in front of the camera?
It's the same behaviour. One group is just more honest.
I’m surprised that any shopkeeper would allow Kim through their front door. She is very recognizable.
And Daniel can’t afford to buy food, but he can buy cigarettes. And he feeds all his friends from the food he just got from the food bank.
And when the food runs out, so do his 'friends'.
Daniel is really narcissistic.. People should stay away from him
They are incredibly toxic to have in your life in ANY way shape or form..
“My moneys my money and I’ll do what I want with it” LMFAO. Dolt, you legit are spending someone else’s money. Lolololol Chilling in his pretty purple bed with his nails chewed to the bone. Lololol 🤦♀️ #dur

And don’t the benefits ppl watch these episodes?! Why don’t they loose their payments?
Ok, take away their benefits. Now they're homeless. What do you want to do now? Have them starve to death on the street?
If they never had the benefits in the first place, which nobody in this show should be getting, then they wouldn't be in this situation.
This is what happens when you create an entire class of adults that are basically children of the state. And people still think the solution is to just give them more. Now there's no homes for people who actually need them, but people want more of what doesn't exist given away to more people who don't want to work for it. Lunacy.
@@frankvonfrauner It’s been shown before that the best way to keep people down is by giving them a little, over time this reduces their inherent ambition and thus the same people can stay in power
The lack of personal responsibility is jaw dropping.
Nobody should be allowed to starve BUT when you gamble away all your food money, the only entitlement they should get is 2 weeks worth of bread & a jar of peanut butter!

he just beyond help, he blames everyone else for every his shortcomings. He will never go anywhere.
I hope the government sees this .
That shoplifter is mental! Seriously, the way she just cackles and walks around like she has no clue. She should be ashamed of herself. Being so selfish with a young daughter and with all those beauty treatments, she should give it up because they’re not working.
Here in America, there is no loosely goosey assistance. You have to jump through hoops and follow strict rules, or you lose any type of assistance. There are limits and time frames here.
I believe in the UK a lot has changed as well. Most of these videos are old. Sadly there will always be people like these.
That doesn’t make it right. There are people who need benefits and absolutely should get them. This programme went out and sought out the worst of the worst for ratings. The US benefits system is nothing for you to be proud of.
I live in Colorado. About two years ago, I tried to get some food stamps for me and my mom. But they county calculated my income and my mom's SSI. I got a letter from them saying we made too much. I was like I wasn't going to be on it long, just to help feed me and my 80 year old mom. But we managed. She did pass away in March. So, money is tight.
We don’t get paid an allotment in America and the only thing is welfare which is around$400 a month and most cases you have to pay it back. We get food stamps if you are under an insanely low income with children. There are other cases of course but it’s not easy. We do get free phones with data … and we have based on income housing so it’s free if you qualify and have no income but if you qualify and get child support or any type of income you pay 1/3 market rent.
Ahahaha, Daniel is blaming everyone else for his gambling habits. What a fool

Oh you poor thing! The world is so UNJUST for you! Hoe DO you manage to go on? Seems like you should get some award!
The amount of people who arrive at food banks driving expensive cars and holding expensive cellphones is incredibly.
I hope someone gives Steven a chance. I think he’d be damn hard worker.
No. A person that admits they would go back to being a criminal if they had to, is not someone to be trusted, not even on a personal level.

It comes from the taxpayer.

Likewise it's NOT the shopkeepers money; it comes from the customer 🙃
It's up to him to decide what he's spending it on.
Sure, it's poor decision making (if there is any), that's why his behaviour is categorized as "addiction". Humans come in many different shapes with many different addictions/ habits.
It's funny to read comments which claim him feeling entitled, suggesting he's a waste of space/ oxygen, expressing mixed emotions about Daniel getting groceries from the foodbank.
Now, how awkward seeing YT users blaming Daniel of being entitled while they themselves feel entitled enough to judge the lad.
Don't force your moral standards upon other members of society, luckily we do live in a free society in which we're all equal, and there are no such requirements to apply for charity
Like he actually says so himself; it's his choice to spend the money on gambling or getting drunk, on hair extensions or he could just toss it in the churches collection box.

I wonder just how much these people actually cost the tax payer? Benefits, jail, legal aid courts, free health care etc. the cost per reprobate must be phenomenal.
He’s entitled to it !
Somebody needs to give him a reality check.
WOW. I love all of these British episodes. This one takes the cake as they say. Here in the USA, you go straight to Federal prison if the abuse of any benefits has been done. Insurance fraud, etc. That is a federal offense. They will give you some food allowance after you are out of prison I think for a limited time. That's it. It is always federal, not state. They are changing things about no federal parole I think. It depends on the crime. State has a parole. Federal doesn't.
Uk is the only country I think that offer this kind of benefits..in Brazil only really poor receive benefits and is impossible to live using only benefits..definitely people still need a full time.job
Nonsense. Few people go to jail for benefits fraud. It is a misdemeanor under a certain amount. Food stamp and disability fraud are rampant. As well as under reported income for subsidized housing. I've worked in public housing so I know the games. No one I've ever seen has been arrested for fraud. Police and courts are only involved in extreme cases of fraud. The police will not even respond if called because they and the courts do not want to be bothered with food stamp offenses or inter-office public housing issues. States also have felony statutes and yes, there is indeed parole in federal prisons. I've yet to see a federal prisoner release where parole conditions were not imposed. State and federal benefits are based on need, and discrimination in determining who receives them is illegal. Being an ex prisoner cannot be held against you if you apply for assistance. Our public housing is full of convicted felons on disability payments who receive food stamps, medicaid or medicare depending on age. Private landlords are also barred from discrimination of ex prisoners. That comes under Fair Housing Act.
@@PatrickFDolan what state are you in? I'm in MS but from TN. Yes, they finally are giving parole to low crime in the Federal prison I think. They do give good behavior a day each month considered early release. State gives parole. Federal doesn't. They're trying to do parole again due to the pandemic and over crowding. Sorry I typed too much.
Yes they do send welfare fraud to prison. It's a federal offense to commit that fraud.
Our social welfare system in the US is pathetic though
But it's not "your" money, is it?! It's money paid by hard working people to help people who have fallen on hard times.
Imagine how much money she could get by selling all the clothes on the rail!! Kim's flat is a dream home for most people who are dying for somewhere to sleep. Ungrateful
Shameful
She should be made to sell everything she has from shoplifting.
I can’t understand how she pays 165 pounds a week for a flat in Fulham?? I paid 120 a week for a room in student housing in Oxford, and 645 a month for a room in a normal house after that??
Do you open your home for homeless for them to sleep in? Hypocrite.
@@DX-d your comment is laughable. We are still in the midst of a pandemic and you can't trust anyone. Regardless of their living situation. It's not up to me to home them. It's the government. You keyboard warrior
Should be a law against gambling for people on benefits.
A final word as it is all just so ridiculous: Just imagine the cost of funding all of this - and the lack of any return in terms of jobs done, output, production, etc, etc. Then add in the entire administrative mountain of all the people who are handing out all the forms and the boxes which need to be ticked and ticked again. It's surely one of the biggest industries in the country.
I would love to see Kim and Fran Dresher in a laughing contest.
Nah , I wouldn't
These beneficiaries need to be bonded as volunteers to local charities as a condition of them being able to claim a benefit. Particularly, Daniel. He could definitely use some well-seasoned perspective, in my opinion. As in personal accountability. His whole, "Can't tell me what to do" ethic isn't going to make him any more employable. He needs to change his expectations, or have them changed for him. The name "Job Centre' is one of the biggest misnomers, as clearly, the gov't is not really doing it's job, by adequately supervising people who are claiming job -seeker's or other benefits. As an entity, they are a poor example, themselves.

when benefits covers get your roots done then this means it is too high.
I'm not standing up for her she is a disgrace but all women need there roots done.
I don't think its too high
I think the issue is her choosing to spend it that way .. she will let other things go
Or shop lift ..
@Jessica Bellamy yep I belief she would still be stealing all kinds of things food, clothes, make-up etc, she may not steal for profiteering anymore but definitely for herself.
The professional shoplifting needs to be in jail.
I spent 30 years working in retail and, let me tell you, shoplifting, is not a victimless crime! You steal from the store, you steal from the people who work there, and you steal from paying customers because the store is forced to raise the prices to cover their losses. This is not a victimless crime! Anyone committing this crime should kiss their benefits goodbye!
I’m not a criminal, I’m a shoplifter 😂
Benefits should only be paid to those who REALLY need them because they are truly disabled, ill, single parents etc. But simply being too lazy to get a job is just disgusting. These people should be forced to work for the community picking up litter in the streets/rivers/fields and only if they bring in enough kilos of litter they will get their benefits in vouchers, so they can't use the money for anything but food, bills, etc because the voucher will only be valid at certain places. And buying tobacco should not be allowed with these vouchers. And if you suddenly feel to "ill" to pick up litter for eight hours each day, then you have to go to this one certain doctor who will check how "ill" you really are and if he says no, you're good, then you will pick up litter or not get any benefit vouchers at all. Maybe that would heal them from their laziness and entitlement. Welfare is a great thing but should only be available to those you really need it. Because they are truly thankful and don't gamble or smoke or use beauty parlours, they just want to survive but life dealt them a bad hand.
This show is weird because it's about something so grim but it has the soundtrack of a Kitchen Nightmares episode.
criminal past is not the problem why Kim doesn't have a job..the problem is her laughter..hahhahaha
I have never heard of so many entitled people excuses in my life.
They need some hard labour .
A shoplifter and a thief is the same thing, which in turn means yes, you're a criminal. A leopards spots never change. She's living the good life 😹 for 45 years! As a kleptomaniac, it's not easy to stop, but she needs to grow up, get her priorities in check. I love this show 😆
she's not a klepto. kleptomania is a diagnosis. they steal things that don't matter, pen lids, tops of bottle caps etc. items that have no use or value, it's an impulse and not done to benefit them monetarily it's just to fix an urge.
I hate that people use the term synonymous with thief, it's not the same. anyone who steals to benefit them ex. clothing, purses, money etc is a thief not a klepto
Yes but one has better taste than the other
Kim's witch cackle is so damn unsettling...😬😬😬
Unbelievable!! Using food banks in that way is just the worst 🤬🤬🤬
These shows make me happy I'm Australian
Yes because there’s no scum in Australia 😂😂😂
I believe in certain ways that some but not all deserve a second chance on work. Sometimes people just can’t be trusted especially that thief ‘the cackling witch ‘. Store owners beware of the woman with the broom.
she'd make a good store detective or mystery shopper, but nobody could trust her in their shops!!
The sense of entitlement is unbelievable.
There's something about the commentary of these (British) shows that's just so funny to me. It's like subtle sarcasm or something, it's frickin hilarious.
For people who have no experience, do voluteer work. Gain experience and contribute back to society. Sometimes, volunteer work can lead to full-time employment.
What the oxygen thief meant to say “ your money is my money, and I do what I like with it”
Why do these people think they are entitled?????
Becusr the welfare system in Briton is so ridiculously easy and generous. I don't know when this was filmed but they would be getting away with this under universal credit!
