My old school chum has posted this as her Facebook status:
WELL LADIES ITS CAME INTO AFFECT WE ONLY GET CHILD BENEFIT FOR 2 CHILDREN NO MATTER HOW MANY CHILDREN YOU HAVE, GOVERNMENT HAVE AGREED TO IT TODAY, AND IF YOU HAVE A SPARE ROOM IN YOUR HOUSE THEY GOING TO START CHARGING FOR EVER ROOM YOU HAVE SPARE YIPPY, THEY SHAFTED US AGAIN, WE NEED TO GET THIS GOVERNMENT OUT THEY ARE A PILE OF SHITE THE RICH GET RICHER AND THE POORER GET POORER, ITS ABOUT TIME WE STARTED STANDING UP TO THEM, THEIR ARE NO JOBS IN THIS COUNTRY DUE TO THEM ALLOWING ALL PEOPLE INTO THE COUNTRY TO WORK, I AGREE TO THE PEOPLE WE NEED , BUT NOT THE ONES WORKING THE JOBS WE COULD HAVE , THE GOVERNMENT PAYS HALF THEIR WAGES AND THE BOSS PAYS THE OTHER HALF, NO THE WONDER THIS COUNTRY IS IN A MESS x
I think she's cut and pasted it from somewhere to be fair.
She has then commented saying that her and her fiance were planning on having another baby but now can't incase it's twins...
She's then went on and bad mouthed our Indian old school chum when he tried to stick up for immigrants.
This lady's attitude shocks me. She doesn't normally post anything remotely 'political'. And it has over 100 comments, from which I can see at least 30 of her friends agree with her line of thinking.
So... would i be unreasonable to go in there and tell them all to get a grip? So far I've expressed my views politely to her, but she's just replying with 'lol'.
