Pushed over the edge by benefit cheats!

CheekyChoppers · 09/04/2012 15:59

I'm getting increasingly annoyed with my neighbours family, we're very close and have been for a long time, but they are just so loose cheeky it makes me want to do something! But at the same time I don't know if I should just mind my own!!

My neighbour has three daughters;

Daughter 'A' lives in a council property with her children and claims all her entitled benefits as a single parent. Her long term boyfriend also lives with her, and he works full time earning a lot of money. He owns his own property which they rent out to make more cash for themselves!

Daughter 'B' lives in a council property with her son and claims benefits as a single person, although her partner also lives there and works full time.

Daughter 'C' (this is what's really pissed me off today!). She is married and lives with her husband and children in their own (mortgaged) property. They both work and earn good money. She however has made a dodgy application to the council housing list and has been offered a property which they are goin to accept! They plan to sell their home!

It annoys the hell out of me that so much money is being fraudulently claimed, and that it is clearly so easy to do. I really want to dob the cheeky bastards in, although am abit scared they'll find out it was me! And don't know if I should just mind my own beeswax!

Bloody SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT

Like plan b says there is no broken Britain, just broke in Britain.

Benefits are something that EVERYBODY is entitled to should they need them.
But they should do everything within their power to ensure that they do not need them, agreed?

Originalplurker · 09/04/2012 17:36

What edge exactly, what did the op mean exactly by that what have they done?

IamTheSandInYourVagina · 09/04/2012 17:37

You probably only got piles from all that sitting around on your fat arse while Hard Working Families did work and stuff.

And now, NOW, you expect me, a Hard Working Family to pay for your pile cream? I have never been so disgusted before. Apart from that bit a minute ago when I was apoplectic about someone using all the milk in the house.

Sue makes a joke out of everything doesnt she

SuePurblybiltFromChocolate · 09/04/2012 17:39

Originalplurker · 09/04/2012 17:43

iamsand but it's ok if you run out of milk, apparently if you have aha tasting dog, this milk is ok, week there was a thread about someone nursing dog milk if their breastmilk dried up, so it must be true. It was suggested chimp milk also.

But hey iam we all know how many goats you really have....even if you pretend they are sheep.

gordyslovesheep · 09/04/2012 17:43

Originalplurker · 09/04/2012 17:44

Rat milk Oplurker, rat milk is the answer.
