no they are merely talking bollox about a subject they have no knowledge of.

that alone is not a crime but when they refuse to accept the alternative (realistic) version then they leave themselves open to be considered a nobber.

tbh I an fed up with being nice, to saying sweetly that someone is wrong when they are actually being nasty and full of shite, talking about something they have no real knowledge of.
maybe cos I have a severely disabled dd or maybe cos I am bored of bigots ant twits, but if you are going to say that people with disability's and their cares don't deserve thsi or that ant least do you fucking homework first.

I didn't realize that this was a thread making cracks about how wrong it was that disabled people on benefits get an extra 10 quid in their pocket at this time of the year. I understood it as a crack against recipients that holiday and live beyond the means at the tax payers expense. My sister and her DP have been on welfare for 15 years and they are just lazy, they both can and have worked, they would rather sit around letting theirs and their children's asses get huge at the tax payers expense and lie to family who live 3000 km away about how hard they have it and ask for money to get them through the month but still spend $1000's at Christmas on crap and receive a food hamper for Xmas dinner because apparently they are a family in need. That is fraud and it takes much needed money away from those families that need it. Mind you, if Dsis' ass gets any bigger, it will be a disability but then she'll be able to get a reality show where they'll cut a huge hole in the side of her townhouse and carry her out on a crane so she can do therapy with Richard Simmons or something.

Before I was on DLA, if you'd have told me that there is a Christmas "bonus" for being disabled, my mouth would have hit the floor.

Now, being disabled, you suddenly realise how actually you do have to pay out a lot more in winter. Taxis cost twice as much because they have to drive more cautiously in the weather. And if you're having to do more / longer taxi trips, or pay for more petrol, because you can't walk as far in the bad weather, it adds up again.

I don't feel ashamed of being disabled, or of being on benefits. I used to. Mainly because there is this big image of "BENEFITS SCROUNGERS!" wherever you turn. The fact that actually for some people, they don't have a choice - if they want to live, they have to claim benefits; that seems to go totally under the carpet.

Try living in the life for a day of anyone with a condition who claims DLA, and then come and complain about ten pounds. I'd quite happily pay every single penny back, with interest, that the state have given me, if I could have my health back.

Fuckwits.

GotArt · 03/12/2010 23:49

Again. No one is making cracks about people who legitimately need it.
