£10 Christmas bonus.

[recklessruby]

Just curious as to if you got yours from DWP (PIP etc). When? And what amazing thing you bought with it?
Mine came yesterday and I bought electric and gas top ups, chocolate and painkillers.

It wasn't me going to the panto, but I'm curious- what is the connection between a woman taking her child to a panto and a woman being prostituted by her pimp (which is terrible of course). But how are they connected? How would the poster not going to panto help that woman?

And again with the hypocrisy- you still get your expensive cheese and wine, but expect others to sacrifice their treats.

SimplySteve I’m a female investement banker. Does that help?

And still waiting for the links to other threads where you've told people that their spending habits are unacceptable. I mean, surely you didn't specifically target disabled people and carers?

Enjoy your very small luxury, I feel quite ashamed that anyone would note a hot chocolate and pastry, let alone disabled people or their carers. But this thread really has made me look at just how good my life is and just what we expect some people to live with.

Gina G ffs. I now have that song running in my thoughts. Thanks....!

Ooh I bought two half bottles of Prosecco for £8 which means I have £2 left for chocolate.

DS can have his in his money box!!

If disabled people being guilt-tripped by an investment banker for spending an extra ten pounds on themselves isn’t a dystopian image, I don’t know what is...

SimplySteve I’m a female investement banker. Does that help?

Wonderful. In just over a week I'll be Santa Claus.

Yep that's where we are at now. An investment banker, whilst guzzling expensive cheese and wine, tells a disabled person that her purchase of chocolate is to blame for homelessness, and a disabled child enjoying a panto is responsible for a women being pimped. It's beyond parody.

Having fun tying yourself in knots over there, edwin? Yeah Sprussel, the irony is rather funny.

Twisted do you know what an investment banker does?

Oh gosh. Are you all in bed? Under your naice duvets? Are you warm and sleeping well ?

I’m currently trying to bed 28 homeless people into 5 spaces, But I’m obviously a piece of shit whilst you slumber away. Do you have breakfast lined up?

Let's see. I've just dealt with a medical emergency at home (hypoglycaemic seizure - do you know what that is?), and since midnight I've been talking to people who've undergone childhood abuse, self-harmers and opiate abusers.

Hahaha radio silence

Yes Steve I do. I have two diabetics in my family

Type 1? Genuinely sorry to hear that, it's a shit condition.

Via cancer corrective surgery. Diabetes is always the preferred method

Hahaha radio silence

Or people with disabilities, serious illnesses and their carers are prioritising trying to get some rest over continuing to engage with somebody who has joined the thread specifically to mock them.

This thread is like some twisted version of those telethons where you get rich and sometimes tax avoiding celebs telling people on lower incomes to give to the cause.

I remember when I was living in a hostel when I was homeless at 19 that I was given a bit extra in IS A in the run up to Christmas. I was extravagant and managed to get three bottles of Radox so.i could have bubble baths. It meant the absolute world to me.
I really don't understand how anyone can begrudge £10.
I hope all those who receive it enjoy it without the judging comments on here. I'm sorry that our government aren't supporting you more.

I hope you all have a very happy Christmas.

JSA and I not i.
