So, yesterday there was outrage after the pictures of dead children were used in the most cynical way by the Daily Mail to sell the idea that welfare "scroungers" are evil, with Phillpott branded a "vile product" of the benefit system by the DM.
What's our government's response today?
George Osborne, when asked about the claims, said a debate was needed about whether the state should "subsidise lifestyles like that". link
To add insult to injury, he was visiting Derby when he said this (which is where the children lived and died).
How fucking insensitive can you get?

I'm disgusted by Osbourne jumping on the Phillpott bandwagon created by the DM
