All very dramatic and no doubt a deserving case, to boot. Quite how you can then come to the conclusion that no one was playing the system on your very limited experience is beyond me, but, again, it suits the agenda, so must be right. My cousin works in a Job Centre, and is what you, with your...

This is just so sadly typical of you. I suggest that we take each case on its merits and then YOU add the nonsense about "sweeping cutbacks" when I have never made any such claim. Since you clearly didn't understand first time, or chose not to, there are people in need who are deservous of...

Yet again you insist on bringing everything down to a ridiculously simplistic level. There are so many factors at play - the numbers in genuine need, the numbers playing the system, and fully explaining benefit changes rather than a slogan in one sentence. You take each case on its own merits or...

That is precisely the glib generalisation I was referring to. As I wrote, but you don't seem to want to accept, there are those in genuine need, and then there are those, like the dad at school where I was yesterday, who boasted about his new £300.00 trainers and seemed impervious to the fact...

I am sure that you are right in that she personally is not responsible, but then you did say you knew who was. I have enough experience of life, and with respect, I think it might be greater than yours, to know that every claim to hardship should be viewed on its merits. Doubtless there will be...

And there you have it in a nutshell. A loud woman who claims that she is being robbed, despite the fact that we know nothing of her circumstances, and how she came to be in this position, and it cuts out before an answer is given, as there is no interest in that - just the mud slinging. So she...

Who cares about that as long as some spoilt brat can indulge in his little hobby and feel good about himself.

Yes, lets get the slogan out again - never mind the poor sods in that house next door with the curtains. That's their problem isn't it. They should be pleased to have it. As long as the rabble can do whatever they want.

Well, well well -who would have thought it? A snooty leftie who derides a politician and then says exactly the same condescending thing about Hastings himself! And then comes the spin -the expression "rag tag" referred to the usual small minority of rabble who indulge in vandalism and not the...

Exactly as I thought. I did you the courtesy of reading your link, and she made no comment at all about "Hastings people", as you decided to put that spin on it to lend some credence to your bias. What she said is quoted here: “You get people who are on benefits, who prefer to be on benefits by...

It is never going to be that simple - how do you know that that couple of pence would actually go towards social care? And, assuming that the cash does go to the intended people, how do you know that those who then see a flood of cash, actually need it? Most folk will know of someone who gets...

Where has she made these comments? I haven't seen such a thing. Has she made comments about "Hastings people" as you simplistically mention it. Or were comments made about those who are making little effort to help themselves? At least you seem to be on a more realistic plain today - yesterday...

You can't beat sensible discussion - keeps us all going.

Shall I put this drivel down to excess alcohol?

Well, yes, most folk you speak to would agree with you, wouldn't they? The fact that they think its funny might of course testify to their immaturity. Perhaps you could give me your address, and I can paint this slogan on your garden wall, as you clearly approve of such things.

Who says she is very unpopular? You don't like her and so presumably everyone else doesn't. And do "people" find this sort of mindless vandalism hilarious? I very much doubt it. The usual rag tag revel in his sort of thing and the Local Authorities have to remove it.
