Not sure what to do here but this situation is making me increasingly angry. My sister and her DP don't work and both are taking the benefits system for a complete ride. My sister has barely ever worked consistently (she usually lasts a few months before she chucks it), even though she is totally capable of it. My parents have doled her out lots of times and now she is with her DP who pays for everything (from money he mainly gets from his mum, even though he is in his mid 40's). My sister however continues to claim benefits and apparantly has kept on her old council flat and gets income that way (I have no idea how though, I only heard that through her DP when they had temporarily separated last year). She has that benefits entitlement syndrome going on eg, I asked her if she was returning to work after her having her DD and her reply was 'Why should I?'.
Her DP has been off his work for months now with a 'shoulder & back injury' that he got from working on roadworks. He has applied for compensation and says he is hoping to get at least £100k . If his injury was 100% genuine then fair enough, but for months he has been doing manual work on the sly, throwing his DD up in the air, doing housework and apparantly he is now working on a building site for cash in hand! He gloats all the time that his court case is coming up and how much money he might get, with a wink as he knows he is taking the system for a ride.
I have been an honest taxpayer for my whole working life and TBH I am getting to seething point about my sister and her DP. DH and I work, and have always worked, and I just think why are we doing this while others squeeze the state dry when they don't need to! I just think it would be so unfair if they get money that would take us years to earn, from them talking absolute bullshit and being totally dishonest.
So I am tempted so say something to someone but don't know who.
What do you think I should do?
