How can we moan about people being on benefits?When we are paying migrants eight million pound a day to live in for star hotel
they should be kicked out the hotel at 9 am and only let back in with a bin bag filled with litter they picked up
£9 million now
Yep i use benefits to not have to pay taxes i mean if everyone is gonna be stealing my tax money anyways i might aswell keep the taxes of the 200k a year i make and give my church and young white families who are struggling some money instead of economic migrants who abuse our system.
good point
Its actually cost £35 billion so far.
shouldnt you be bashing the illegals who are on benifits who have never paid any tax?
And the wealthy politicians with their expenses to employ help (often a family member who never actually does any work) and free second homes etc. Why not cut the royal budget and the massive wages of the reporters making these videos.
Or both
100% agree.. plus those illegals and legals who claim for family that aint even in this country... less of these twats in this country then the tax wont go up as much...
Yes!! All the illegals! Free everything for ever! Nothing said about them.
GB news can't actually mention the Bogus Boys as arrests will be made on charges of racism or hate Speech
READ all the comments and you will see a common thread - why work when the Govt. are giving millions to keep immigrunts 🤬☹🤬☹🤬☹
They prefer to ignore that point because it's easier to blame the so-called workshy scruffbags
And non immigrants
And work to stay in the same poverty as benefits! No dentists apps, no docs... Ect ect ect.
Yes and on lot of different RUclips videos
It`s not nice driving to work on a hot day to work in a steel forge and see there lot wondering about in new cloths. Who thinks that is OK most likely does not work themselves.
How much money is poured down the toilet of hotels and payments for illegal immigrants?
Why are we paying for people who have never contributed so this country?
8 million a day for illegal immigrants is the problem.
It's nearly £15 million a day now after last year's figures came out.
Rule of thumb - take the gvmt figure and double it, for the true cost
It’s £14 million a day now £4.2 billion a year.
Benefits cost over 100 billion yearly. How can yall be so stupid to say the money spent on migrants ( money from foreing aid budget) is the problem??? Hotel fees for migrants is not up to 1bn a year and guess what you fools, the money is going back into British pockets since its British hotels that are used.
Idiots never use their head 🙄
@@Jen-mf9rmsmh. Then explain o wise one, how do they fund the other half of the expenses you claim they are hiding?
British benefits payed direct into illegal immigrant's bank accounts, no questions asked and priority number 1 then a free house.

@@jasoncooper9391 And labour will be just the same.

Irrelevant.
Because every time there was ever talks about sending them back. Labour are the first ones to try and stop it from happening
Then they will be on benefits for the rest of their lives.
The UK is not "voting" their way out of this problem.
The poorest people are the working poor, whose pathetic pay is taxed, not those on benefits.
The poorest people are those sleeping rough on the streets then the working poor
@@catscan2022The poorest people are the Windsors. “No one works harder than the Queen of England, she never put a foot wrong” - British Media.
I'm on benifits now....universal credit gone up £7 amonth my rent has gone up £28 amonth..so don't think us on benefits are loaded
It's not just that, they've increased the national minimum wage but haven't changed the amount you are allowed to earn before benefits are deducted so they can pay you less. They've also increased the amount they expect you to earn to over £700 per month, again so they can deduct even more of your monthly benefits. All this while they continue to hand out hotel rooms, houses and cash to illegal freeloaders that are swarming in over the English channel. Funny how Moggy didn't mention that.
If your not working you rent is also paid. I mean stop moaning its free money. You shouldn't be loaded on benefits.
So Ur rents went up £28 and Ur benifits has went up £7? So Ur better off each week as has been said u don't pay rent it gets paid for u so doesn't matter how much it goes up then? But if u work full time and Ur rent goes up u need to find that money? Anyone who works should always have a better standard of living than anyone on benifits.
You're getting something for nothing so there should be no complaints.
Many are led to believe that EVERYONE ON BENEFITS GETS ALL OF THEIR RENT AND COUNCIL TAX PAID FOR. There are those who are on benefits that don't get their full rent paid and have to top it up out of those benefits and expected to pay full council tax which comes out of those benefits as well. It all depends on their circumstances.
Why work hard to pay your taxes for migrants?
Spoken like a true lowlife scrounger 😂😂😂
I'm not paying for your grants, got enough problems paying for mygrants.
That's why I quit good point !
it is a saddened state, I try to motivate myself but find it difficult when others are appearing and given benefits that have never contributed, we used to have motivation to earn a living and do things for our country but when thy do nothing for us and hey shift the goalposts when you get ahead a bit. I work and a lot of the time I dont qualify for the benefit. but some months I do. but the incentive to work for a government that doesn't care about us. also Jemma single men who's family have grown up and left are also in a poor state.who wants to work for a government who treats anyone who is not in government as plebs.
These problems are NOT mutually exclusive.
Working in this country is mugs game , free hotels. 50 million pound scammers.
£50 million scammers not even British 😂 ppl from other countries ripping off Britain.
Your leaders are paid well courtesy of your tax contributions to their master's
How do they do this scamming and end up with stacks of cash. Ask you bank for £1000 cash and you would have a battle to get it. But 50 million the mind boggles.
@@anty66 Got to be a inside job. These people all network with each other.
@@anty66 inside job, these people are constantly networking with each other, speaking a different language makes it alot easier.
How about incentivising people to work by not punishing people for being self employed and robbing workers of 20% of their salary
I'm more concerned about the illegals being given money and rooms in 5 star hotels having done nothing for either. Meanwhile ex military are sleeping on the streets and families are living in mould ridden property.
Something seriously wrong here but who will put it right? REFORM maybe.
The migrants and benefits as a lifestyle choice shouldn’t be either or. Both issues matter. Just deflecting from the convo when frankly GB news talk more about the migrant issue than anyone else.
Oh shut up I’ve worked so hard am full time carer now and I do not want to pay our governments to give money to war machine or immigrants
But you want to give it to losers who want to milk the system.
At least the immigrants have an excuse, its in their nature, what is the excuse for your native population?
I would support money going to Ukraine so the women and children are not killed for the Russian Empire. But then people like you only care about your self.
Same, I worked from age 16 to 35 and now have a disabled child. I want to be here for him, and I have paid taxes. I have no issues with genuine cases. What I do begrudge is people that have contributed nothing coming here and getting everything handed to them.
Did you support the lockdowns and call yourself a hero, some of us told you this would happen.
Here in Canada I worked until 70. Covid terminated my employment otherwise I could worked for another five years keeping benefits to others possible.
The country’s in the toilet simple as that, the demographic change, bad politicians and wasteful spending.
The demographics have been knackered for a long while now
Birth rates fell off a cliff, which is why the borders in most of the west have been thrown open.
Problem is, immigrants move in, adapt to the country and their birth rates drop to the same, so it becomes a constant stream.
Add in the split families problem, more houses are needed for more people that live alone/live with kids and no partner.
Family with 2 adults in 1 house, split family with 2 adults need 2 houses.
Housing costs rise due to supply and demand.
It's why costs have risen in Scotland, even though Scotland's population flat lines.
Can ignore immigration as a cause here, so it's easier to see the family housing need changes
4 million people unemployed, housing crisis and mass population replacement. Civil war is brewing in the UK.
@@johnnycarrotheid Agreed with every thing you said except the part, incomers adapt to our ways, they adapt alright, to our benefits.
@@geraldandrew3289
Immigrants move in, 1st gen might have more kids, 2nd gen onwards their birthrates drop to pretty much average.
Borders are open because the birthrates aren't high enough. Immigrants move in and end up on the same birth rates.
Becomes a constant need to strip mine the 3rd world of their youth, to maintain our worker base.
With all the infrastructure problems that comes from importing 20yr old workers instead of 20yr lead times to plan/develop the infrastructure needed to support the population.
We don't have the 20yr planning as kids grow, to work out what we need for them as adults, we just import them and the systems falling apart
@@johnnycarrotheid have 'we' incentivised a certain 'personality' type? Have we encouraged some to have lots of kids while other working couples just cannot afford it? Does this, a generation in, make a big demographis difference? Super rich and super poor have lots.....those in the middle dont...is this an accident?
When a struggling UK Worker earns about £1,700 a month after Tax.
Then he pays his £850 Rent,...leaving him £900 to last a Month.
Then he pays £120 Council Tax / Utilities £190 ,
Food £160 a person / £150 for Transport /£25 phone, £25 internet / Eating out £40,.... leaving just £140 to survive the WHOLE Month.
1 Emergency can push the person to Mental Health Breakdown.
Eating out is not essential.
And your solution is what exactly?
Reduce his tax bill? We will lose more public services.
Cut council tax? We wont have street lights or bin collections.
Reduce his rent? Landlords will sell up and there will be less houses to rent.
Reduce food costs? Inflation will push everything else up.
The ONLY solution is for people to gain more skills and earn more money, I do not even understand how this is up for debate..
Welfare state bred a bunch of losers, thank Christ I am not one of them.
Enjoy your moaning and whining, it will get you nowhere.
@@dirkbogarde44 It's not essential but eating out could be McDonalds - have you seen the prices lately? Everyone one of us needs to feel we've earned the right to a treat (wouldn't call McDonalds a treat but you get the idea) when you work hard and can't afford to treat your family/wife/partner to a meal something is drastically wrong.

I'm more concerned about the largest transfer of wealth in history from the British people.
Diversity, a euphemism for we want less whites.
I've not as yet been out of work or claimed benefits. However, It is not right that English Scots Welsh Irish should work and keep the country going when so much money is spent on illegal migrants who get everything put on a plate for free .seriously appalling in my opinion.
they cant even get our homeless or vets off the streets but come over in a boat they will give them everythin
@douglasmurphy3794 they sure found spots for the vets and homeless when the lockdown hit so it just shows they utterly don't care because their is no human right conventions for our own suffering, but there is human rights for the people that hate us.
What did they migrant were scamming universal credit out of? 1 billion in 2 years was it? 1 billion...
Exactly!
That’s why they keep putting the retirement age up to pay for all this I’m retired I’m fit enough to do a job but won’t they just tax me more if you can afford not to work don’t

Good on you mate says a lot about your character
Good chap
Stop the boats that will save you 8 million aday on hotels
It comes out of the foreign aid budget, so we will never see any of that money. It has been earmarked for every nationality, except British.
Rishi saying that the average salary in the UK is £35k is complete BS. its like a factory owner earning £120k and he pays his 09 staff £22k each and claiming his companies average wage is £35K.. completely fudging numbers. the majority of uk workers are earning approx. £22k, NOT £35K.
true minimum wage = defacto wage
Comes down to what you mean by average. I think the £35k figure (or numbers in that area) are mean wages (so all the wages added up divided by total number) whereas the median (lining up everyone in order of increasing wage and choosing the middle value) is more like the figure you quote (think it might be around £23-24k mark). I suspect there's fudging going on as well, but it's politicians playing on the idea that the average is the same as the middle, when for wages it definitely isn't.
Lies dam lies and statistics, entitled public sector taking more than their fair share , economic growth is the answer, stop immigration and instigate mass deportation
I mean did anyone expect otherwise the man lives in bubblewrap gets driven round in armoured car on 170k a year plus benifits wears a mothercare suit and we thought this man knew about reality.
@@tomsmith48 agreed but it's very misleading, purposely misleading when it's out of the mouths of politicians.
Don't give benefits to people not born here before you attack people that were.. Some people can't help being on PIP etc... Also some minorities are claiming for people that are not even in this country etc...
Who cares when immigrants live better than i do.And i work my arse off.
And thousands of them are floating around the country...........where the Gov...has NO idea where they are etc................
Im on benefits after working 42 years sometimes 60 hour weeks physical work that broke my body.I have no subscriptions for tv and my phone contract is £8 a month.at the end of the month i have about £25 spare even with PiP. Not all people on benefits have never worked. And don't forget some people work while on benefits.
you are right, but you're not the problem, you're one in a thousand, theres too many abusing the benefit system
@@rumpa09 go down to your local foodbank and have a chat with the people there. this idea everyones at it is madness. ex paramedics, builders, military staff etc etc. yes you get the odd scruff but the reality is most people.
Here is a solution.
Stop taken illegal migrants into the country and expecting the tax payer to pay for them.
After the covid shots most people are injured and can’t work.
I had to give up my job as a NHS nurse of 23 years to look after my husband as he is vaccine injured.
He can’t walk far, he has no coordination of his movements, he can’t sit. He is suicidal.
So why not do a survey and find out why people don’t work.
Interestingly I watched the train pull away and the workers come home in Glasgow.
We live in the Southside and it is quite a ethnic area. Apart from 2 people all of them were white.
I totally agree ,same as me after covid vaccine left me with heart problems and yes walking almost impossible to walk now . And I was a very fit guy before this poison was blackmailed into my system . My legs and feet blow up like a balloon I get serious cramps . I can’t walk unaided many feet before stopping for rest . I can’t do anything now either . So I agree with your comment . Sunak doesn’t mention the vaccines or the large payouts to keep the illegals here . I am not having any more of these covid shots 3 was enough ,never again . I feel hurt cause also all the broken people through this vaccine and then the idiots in power say we are lazy . I bet the pink Boris and his ilk didn’t have the shots . I feel for you and hubby ,cause I know what the situation is like ,and what you are going through .
alot of people on benefits are working but there wages are so low they are topped up by benefits
If a government has to top up your wages from work because you can’t afford to live that’s a failed system government’s like people to have the begging bowl out pleading for money something radical has to change with tax system to end this poverty way of living
Some people are lazy but most people have simply given up tax tax tax does not incentivise especially when we know our taxes are being wasted. It’s every man for himself these days.
People are probably fed up with paying for assilam seekers free lifestyles, can you blame them ?
No you can't blame them. Mass immigration drives down wages so there are often no decently paid jobs for British people. All many of them have to look forward to is being penalised by Job Centre staff and the DWP for not finding a job.
Hang on a minute, hypocrite Jacob and his mates claim stupid amounts for their expenses amounting to millions when they can afford to pay for their expenses
Yes I agree. There's a couple of guys on YT who explore abandoned buildings. On one occasion they were exploring a big house and halfway through the vid they realised that the lights were on and there were security cameras filming in there. It turns out that the house used to belong to Mogg. This place was as big as a hotel. These people don't know anything about the way ordinary people live.
@@truthseeker7794 Where's the link
@@jeffsimon9594
Jacob is one of the few that don't claim expenses because he's rich and does not need to (his words) and if expenses were not available then only rich people like him would be in parliament (also his words)
It’s all MPs, the system allows them to claim expenses, it’s actually very stringent by hmrc what they can claim for after the scandals of people claiming for a house for their ducks etc.
Expense claims exist for a reason.
You people have NO understanding of business, yet you will complain when prices go up..
This country is going to hell in a hand-basket..
We want to see Tax INCREASE on the Rich companies to fund Tax Cuts on the struggling Workers,
Why am I having to pay 33% on every pound I earn,....While Rishi Sunak pays less than 30%,.....How is that Fair?
Here we go again the rich blaming the poorest for all the money problem's again.
This happens every time an election is looming. I listened to Mogg on this subject and basically the Tories flagship new benefit system is a failure. It was supposed to get claimants doing any sort of work and taper them with support into full time work.
I'm a veteran and went on sick in 2010 for knee replacement. The whole process of the system caused me so much stress that I was subsequently diagnosed with PTSD,s and significant complex mental health issues and was never able to work again. Stop spending money on asylum and put it back into our country and invest in building businesses here .......we need to build Britain not destroy it
if you subtract the benefits paid to working families on UC and pensioners it is not that bad. What about illegals draining the coffers. Sick and tired of the poorly paid and sick/disabled along with pensioners being the easy targets. Lots of wrongs there maybe but demonizing the sick n disabled.
They don't look disabled to me
If you have a alcohol issue you are on incapacity benefits?? I get tired easily but I still work and pay 20% tax on my merger £12,500 per year annual wage. I've taken on 2 extra jobs and 61 years old. It's about work ethic as well.
@@paulrobinson5739Depends on your perspective. There are some who don't look disabled but do have a disability. However, there are those that look disabled but actually aren't.
Well said thank you!! I find it so hurtful when the disabled and their unpaid carers are lumped in and demonized by people like this.
@@paulrobinson5739what does it mean to "look disabled"?
Who is earning over two grand a month on universal credit? That's a complete lie and anyone who has been on uc knows this. Half of your uc go's on gas and electric that's before you can even think about food to last for a month 😅

@pillowqueen1624 If she is getting that, then obviously, she has kids, including yours, that she is getting paid for. And if you are getting that, then you are on the sick where you don't have to look for work. As for her bills being next to nothing, the only bill that gets reduced is council tax lol. Most people on uc haven't got kids and aren't on the sick and get the minimum to survive.
@@Jay-nr6mr Imagine having spawn and letting the gov pay for it. I wouldn't even think about having kids unless I had a well paying job...

@SamuelBlack84 the biggest half of this backwards country is in the same situation you are in, my friend. Don't lose hope. You can still achieve greatness. This is what they want they put people in suits on our TV screens telling people how bad they are for being on benefits, acting like it's this amazing life while you struggle to eat its exactly where the system wants you down and out given up on life depressed and under their control because you are dependent on them/taxpayers to pay your bills and then they will tell the taxpayers how they are paying for people's benefits knowing there's not enough jobs for people to just get a job its all done as a way to divide and deflect away from the corruption of our government.
is that so we pay even more tax to pay for our new neighbours while they sit around and multiply instead? how will there be any jobs if their plan is to give them all jobs?
The British should get a job and work to pay for immigrants' benefits while the government puts the British people last. Not to mention how hard it is to get a low paid job because of immigrants 😅. Unbelievable.
Nope never work again until you stop the boats I'm not slaving away my short existence for the gov to give it to new comers pfff you pull double shifts and miss your kids growing up and pay for childcare so you can make more money to be given away ill enjoy the sun shine

Perhaps you need to work on yourself a bit more.
I employ people based on attitude and work ethics.
The average age is 45. I employ a 74 year old man who runs rings around most of my staff.
Mindset is crucial when walking into an interview or presenting yourself in front of a future employer.
carlobeny7400
I've been in exactly the same place as you. You attend interviews, where the average age of other applicants is 30.
What chance do you have, especially if you have health issues too?
Apply for all the jobs that you are capable of doing. Many jobs are not even advertised. I walked into a supermarket and asked about a job and the next thing I knew I was a stocker, filling shelves in the evenings. I was then asked to go on the night crew, full time, because they liked my work ethic and I was 60. Retired at 67.
Not everyone can have a job that’s not humanly possible blaming the disadvantaged minority for our country’s economic problems is a low blow!

In the past if you worked hard you could eventually own a house and a car. Good luck these days.
Oh yea, Ive had 2 back operations one at 18 one at 32, interstitial cystitis from 31, Now aged 43 and with my luxury PIP and ESA income and no prospect of ever working again I’m totally living the dream…………Id love to be fit and well and able to work but as well has having health problems I will have to suffer the humiliation of being made to feel like a fraud and a scrounger for the rest of my life….and Im the one better off??
The social safety net is made for people in your situation. It is the grifters who are able and do nothing that are the problem and focus of the frustration! All the best 👍🏼
I feel your pain. I've helped a few people with their claims and I know that the powers that be do everything they can to make it hard for you to get an ESA or PIP award. Some people try for years while they suffer with poverty and pain. People never think that many benefit claimants once had good jobs and paid their taxes, as did their parents and grandparents before them. I know that you and most others would gladly swap their PIP to have their health back.
All I've ever wanted is to be rich while living my life indulging in all forms of hedonism
That isn't too much to ask, is it?
The people who won't get off their backsides to work when they are capable, have created the humiliation and fraud along with the government for allowing them to get away with it. What was a life line for people like yourself, has been used and abused that it's hard to know who is genuine and who is not. You know you are genuine, that's all that matters. Keep your head up and take care of you. You are who the system was created for, along with many others in similar situations. You have nothing to be ashamed of.
how many billions is it now, to pay for illegal immigrants? wtf should british people pay taxes for that? quit work, get on benefits, kick back, stop caring, thats what i say.
That's the problem isn't it!
Be careful how you word your news! Not ALL people on benefits are scroungers so don't tar them all with the same brush!!!!!!
They clearly said time and time again, people which refuse to work.
Not people who can't.
You don't get £2600 on universal credit 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
They're are some very dim people on here that believe everything they are told..
Despite how much we complain about the level of minimum wage, Britain still has net migration of 750,000 a year for some reason?
That list is bullshit no 9ne I know gets 2200 per month no one they aren't much better 9ff homeless people don't choose to be disabled or mentally ill what about the 9nes who have paid national insurance for years and taxes ect and just have started claiming
When you realise that working for life in a backbreaking job still won't get you a decent home (or a home at all in some cases) it's no surprise. There was a time when the working class could earn enough and have a pathway to owning their own house. Now that's almost impossible.
If you dont give us the right to die, dont complain about the cost of keeping us alive .
Last year I was disabled , this year I'm a work shy scrounger. I still have the same health issues and have to jump through hoops to get my benefits, By the way I used to work 7 days a week in the building industry . So before you tar us all scroungers be careful you never know what's waiting for you in the future.
Well said .
You just knockrd the nail on the head👏Why should I work when people(😂)come here and thrive on benfits?
It will keep going up when you let waster men in who get residency and a life on it while working cash in hand.
Oh yeah, definitely people on benefits making this deficit and not the very large corporations not paying their tax, or indeed MP's cheating the system for personal gain
Or 8mill a day for Dingy divers 5 * hotels!!
When the system changed and employers had to offer a pension to full-time workers, pretty much most jobs went to part-time, and a lot of those jobs also changed to zero-hour contracts, I don't even qualify for ANY benefits as my wife works over the threshold as a Nurse, I am in my mid 50's, employers don't want me. I am now over 6 years inactive, Still applying for Jobs, in six years I have applied for over 3500 jobs, and 1 interview for packing shelves, but didn't even get that. I tried working a zero-hours contract once, but never again, you get full hours one week and maybe nothing for the next 3 weeks. no one can live like that especially when you have a mortgage to pay. Both Labour and the Tories promised to ban Zero hours contracts but never did. I have a lifetime's experience working for the NHS and it counts for nothing.
'Sympathy' for single mums that get knocked up by some feckless blokes? No chance darling.
Exactly, how many frigging types of contraception are out there! Why should we have to pay for some bint who gets made pregnant by a low-life. And we all know the skin hue of the worst offenders doing this.
Sometimes the women have to leave a relationship and take the kids with them. Or maybe you think the woman and the kids should stay in an abusive situation so we don't have to pay them any benefits?
@@andrewjack31not all women are in abusive relationships. The reason so many relationships fail now is because people don't need each other anymore because nanny state will give a mother and her offspring the money her husband would have provided.
@@catscan2022 thank God for that eh? I can only imagine how horrible it must have been for the women who were trapped with a man they couldn't stand in the past, just so they could feed themselves and their kids and have a place to stay.
It must have been horrible.
Now relationships have to work because both parties want it to. Not because it has to or else one party will be destitute if it doesn't.
@@andrewjack31 indeed but what it has also done is devalue wages. If people can get money direct from the state, companies can pay less. We are in effect subsidising business And giving people money instils a sense of entitlement. My mother was a single parent but still worked to provide for us. Some kids don't have such good role models and expect, like their parents, to be handed everything for free without having to work for it.
So do they call this open legs policy?
Morbid obesity is a major problem. Within 100 metres of were I live in Brighton, I know of 6 working age house bound very sick massively fat people and there are probably many more hidden away. Mainly residing in council housing all of them English only one of which works from home. This must be replicated nation wide and I imagine probably with even worse statistics in the north and midlands. All going hand in hand with mental health issues.
Here in the States too. So many of working age are now "disabled" because of obesity and they get a monthly check, and free / reduced healthcare. Electricity reduction or free. Low income housing.. Even doctors cannot tell a patient to lose weight now. That would be offensive. I see men my age (fifties) who weigh well over 300 lbs getting knee replacements paid for by Medical (governemnt healthcare) because of their weight and never told to change their lifestyle.
That’s a joke. I don’t believe that a single bloke can ever claim as much as £2,000!!!! It’s TOTALLY fabricated!!
I suspected as much. I multiplied the 2700 by 12 and it comes up with a figure of £32.400. Quite alot to talk to and feed a parrot. Possibly an exaggerated story from GB News.
I’m a single male, living alone on benefits. I have UC and PIP and don’t come even remotely close to that.
Maybe it's cause the parrot is entitled to some aswel 🤪
Not everyone on benefits is living an easy life. Since 2022 I;ve bad to live of benefits as I was diagnosed with Cancer. Unfortunately I could not get an appointment with my GP during covid and by the time I was diagnosed, the cancer had spread. I was then told I had 9 Months to live. The reason I could not work was because my back had fractured and I had severe mobility issues. I was in and out of hospital as well. Up to this point days off were very rare for me and had been in full time employment since I was quite young. So about 27 Years.
I have no doubt some people take the piss however, people like myself have no choice and have had to sell property in order to survive as benefits do not cover living costs.
You are who the system was created for. I wish you well.
Nobody cud ever complain about you receiving benefits so don't feel guilty. You have a terminal illness that's been proven and diagnosed, nobody cud expect you to work. I don't think any taxpayer cud begrudge their taxes going to somebody like you. God bless
Oh my Lord, I am sorry to hear your story. ❤❤❤ This life can be so cruel !!!! I wish you well and some kind of magic to come for you to get healed. ❤❤❤❤
"Get a job"
Fuckin employ me then.
With that hostile attitude how could they turn you down? 🙄
@@jeffsimon9594 lmao
So true I’ve seen this happen multiple times to the young and WHO are actually being emoloyed right and it ain’t natives to UK
@@jeffsimon9594 reason i quit i became hostile violent and a danger to everyone on sites 🤣😂😜 that's what pushing a man to break his back for years for shitty pay checks high taxes n missing my kids upbringings looks like nahhh when now u can swan in off a boat n yeah uve seen how it is
That man’s sick benefits are classed as his wages, because he can’t work for one reason or another. So it’s up to him how he spends it. Should he suffer because he can’t work?
Some of these self appointed spokesmen want anybody disabled, sick, or mentally ill to have nothing at all, they want them to live in total poverty..
I’m a registered nurse and I’ve been qualified 25 years. I’m a sister on a ward in a private hospital and I bring home less than that scrounger with the list stating what he spends his benefits on. It makes my skin boil but at least I can hold my head up high and go out and make a difference to peoples lives. I’m 53 years old and apart from claiming SSP when recovering from surgery I have continually worked since the day I left school in 1988! There is plenty of employment around some of which is suitable for people who are disabled. The Government should come down harder on these people and say “if you don’t get a job within six months, your benefits stop”. You watch how many find employment then!
A lot of 40 year olds skills are out of date, they should be allowed to re-train. They keep young people at school until the age of 18, my generation started work much younger and we often had more than one job, we were working six days a week. Then there are all the degree students that can't find jobs in what they trained in. Matt Goodwin has said that at least 50% of the universities shouldn't be universities at all.
My degree was in Science, however thanks to SCUM like MATT who also supports immigrants taking over 70% of graduate jobs. i cannot get a job in science industry.
If only corportations and buisnesses trained people instead of using illegal labor like the tories love to use illegals to not have to pay British people while telling you they support Birtish people first which is a lie they only care about money and always have.
No quite the opposite, have you not seen what the schools and universities are producing these days with their indoctrination policy?
If national minimum wage matched inflation. It would be at £22 an hour.... that's how far away we are... the £1 in that blokes mothers day was worth £1... £1 today is worth about 2p in real terms and that's why a house cost over £100,000 these days and crumbles withing 5 years of being built.... we were 1st told homelessness was a choice.. now there telling you benefits is a lifestyle choice.. there always needs to be an enemy.. this country that country these people those people.. the classical devide and conquer and the vast majority of the public take the bait. Your neighbours aren't the problem. Corrupt govenrment and corperate elites are your enemies. Not your poor countrymen and woman! UNITE and make a stand against tyranny and oppression!
The spineless dullards of this pathetic nation would never have the guts to rebel
The disabled will suffer as usual ,have to jump through hoops to get benefits ,while immigrants come here have loads of kids and get everything free
I wonder why🤔 have you seen the costs of the Bibby Stockholm !!
my partner worked in a care home 10 years, the care home closed down and she was made redundant.. she has been applying for jobs for months, shes applied for hundreds of jobs and every response is "unfortunately after reviewing your CV"..... what choice does she have but to go on benefits
Is she NVQ qualified? Agencies are bringing carers in from Africa. We need carers. Try the hospitals.
if 100%tax is slavery.... then are we calling 40-50% a moral obligation? and if so ....is that to help society? well if it isnt helping society, then why are we working ?
The problem of money is keeping illegal immigrants in this country.
Husband made redundant after working and paying taxes since 16 got a pittance from unemployment not enough to pay bills or eat ,i was on carers allowance,all our small savings gone on bills ,while illegals get free roof,food or money, phone ,Internet ,travel,council tax ,utilities all paid for
I have seen people have to go to a jobcentre tribunal who cant work and need a little extra support, they get rejected and forced ro be able to work when they pyshicaly cant, yet i see foreigners being giving extra help they domt need playing at it. Have seen it with mine own eyes. And then you have people come here get everything. And also so many of our own veing to lazy to work aswell is bad. Its a total mess. Those that need the help are being dragged into situations they arent ready for, all the while people faking it are getting away scott free. It is amazing indeed.
I've never understood why it's our job to foster and care for every immigrant across the world?
Why is their welfare suddenly our problem?
how dose he get that much as a person on universal credit i only get 665 a month for my rent and all other stuff like i say how is this person getting over 2k when most of us on benefits dont get anyware near that
He's Romanian.
That was not real, it was a tongue in cheek skit about what the majority believe people on benefits get and do with their money...someone who chose that as an item on here didnt research properly
Wow! you get more for rent than I get from the state pension. I stayed at home until my kids were at school and were old enough to be left a couple of hours until got home from work. So I didn't have enough contributions for a full pension.
No point bashing UK citizens, when is uncontrolled immigrants receiving billions of tax payer's money!
The question asked "what about the single mum who has 3 kids?" Easy, they shouldn't have had 3 kids and expect the tax payer to pay for them. Get their priorities right, in the first place. Why is it that a lot of people think that they are owed a living. Is there any wonder the country is in such debt as we are today.
Yep keep their legs shut
If there were any jobs that pay a living wage you can live off I'm sure folk would want to work but they're wanting us to work for nothing
Agreed. Mass immigration has driven down wages so low that jobs are now worthless.
They tell you that working for nothing gives you experience, but it's irrelevant as employers for some unknown reason don't count voluntary work as experience
@@SamuelBlack84 It is an experience, not a qualification. If you stay on benefits and do nothing i.e. training, volunteer work, (which all look good on a CV), then to me that is worse, sitting at home doing nothing shows you have no motivation.
@@therealpollyanna5846 Didn't you read? I said work experience, working for nothing does not count as actual experience
@@SamuelBlack84 Work, whether paid or unpaid is work. That comes from someone who has employed many people. If someone is not looking at voluntary experience, they probably were not intending to hire you and used lack of experience as an excuse rather than a reason. So, yes I did read it. Maybe it's your attitude that you need to work on. 🤔
you pay into a system all your working life. the service is owned by the tax payer. people should get more
I’ll bet Gemma went to university and now has a degree in yoghurt weaving.
🤣😂
Scrap the benefit system. Some people are just pure bone idle and lazy.
As a single white man I know there's no point in even trying to get on the housing ladder. There's many like me - there's no hope.
Yank here, I was shut out of the housing market in California back in the 1990's. I feel you.
I agree with the man on left children of single mums could get jobs to support their mum like chimney sweeping, odd jobs, hop picking and fruit picking in the summer
😂😂😂👍
Is this including legal immigration figures? Not to mention the illegal immigrants 4billion over a coarse of a yr to stay in hotels while waiting on a free house along with with dentistry, NHS treatment and public transport. All while our own people suffer!
I’m 66, retired thank God! My last job was in a warehouse doing 12 hour shifts for 4 nights/days. Hard work but over minimum wage. Over the last 4-5 years we have been flooded with migrant workers, some good, most really bad and the turnover has been huge. Some days I’ve been the only white face in a canteen of 10-20. That’s why there are so many people on benefits.. pay a decent wage, stop paying migrants minimum wage to do a job that we can!!
A man’s minimum wage must be high enough to support 5 people, his wife and three children.
Families require a home and an apartment is NOT a home.
Why 3 children?
@@JAMESLOONEY-kd1nu average birth rate of 1.9 is not sustainable. Or maybe more immigrants are the answer?
@JAMESLOONEY-kd1nu Two isn’t growth
@laurafulton7023 even 3 is not growth as some people won't have children. Enjoy your weekend
Couldn't have put it better myself
Yes my Business went down after covid .....and yes I see people living better on benefits ...The benefits people are on more money pro rata
when paying my bills rent ect. end up with less spending money than the benefits people
How much British tax payers money have gone to sickness claims for British, and how much been used to support non-British? Hope GB news can help uncover this for our public interest (I wonder whether the amount for non-British would be much greater than or less than 69b)
What about those on benefits that want to work, but can't because they are told they are not allowed to? I misbehaved 2 years ago and got a fine. Very quickly, every time I applied for a job and said I had an unspent conviction, the door got slammed in my face. I would gladly start work tomorrow, but if benefits is the only way to live without robbing people, then I'm going to milk it for everything I can.
Lazy people will always find ways to justify their laziness. They will never run out of excuses. I’ve seen folks in their 60s and still working because they feel ashamed sucking on the welfare when they still have strength to work.
It's because those people have been brainwashed into thinking that wrecking their health for a pittance to make someone else richer is admirable. The graveyards are full of people like that.
I was 60 when my husband died, but because the age of retirement went up, I couldn't claim my pension. I was told to get a job as there is no widows pension if you do not have minors in the house to care for. I had worked most of my life, until I needed to care for my husband. But I found a job stacking shelves and retired at 67.
Not paid tax for 10 years. Prefer to live off private pensions and get any benefits I can
how can you have a private pension with no income?
@stephendavenport1414 So your some how living off less than £12,570 per year? How on earth do you manage that?
Wife on full pension plus DLA. No rent or council tax to pay
As someone who never went to University thus cannot get a half decent job, All I've ever managed to get was min wage jobs where they treat you like s and replace you. I was fired from Argos for a Facebook message talking about history because it was deemed racist... Amazon delivery driver int he city centre was slave labour and utterly ridiculous workloads. I don't feel I have a future. I was turned down for 4 applications to the Ambulance service which I recently went back to college to get the grades for specifically. What hope do I have? slave work or benefits... Of course people have mental health problems when you're basically a replaceable slave and cancelled and shunned from society because you're not woke and oppose their ideology.
Word!! This person gets it!!
The whole system is wrong
That’s why I left to work in a foreign country that now I am able save 80% of what I earn a month. In the UK lucky to save 10% people should follow suit and leave for a better life
