I think you're having to stray a little way from the subject matter of fraud in food banks in order to make a point. Two wrongs have never made a right. Why don't you start a new thread attacking the privileges of OAPs? That sounds a good left wing topic for you.

Sorry to spoil a good story, but nobody 'claims' the heating allowance. It is given to every OAP, as it would cost more to means-test it than any resultant savings. If OAPs want to buy food with it they can. This stops any additional drain on the food banks.

Where is the relevance to fraud in food banks?

I'll forgive the insult, but you are yet another one who has jumped to your own conclusions about what I said. But don't let that tiny error stop you in the middle of a good rant.

In that case I was talking about you, not everyone.

How nice.

Find me any statement I have made that looks down on everyone claiming benefit. I look down on claimants that abuse the system.

Nothing new there then.

Your wasting your time. Its all hot air. Next he will tell you there is no abuse in the benefit system.

Well lets euthanise everyone over 60.

I am not generalising. I am being very specific in saying that no parent should put any of the things on that list above the supply of food to their children. If they have none of those things than they should receive every help the State can give.

Mind your own business.

If you paid in that much tax then you obviously earned a good wage over a long period. Did you not think to put some aside for a rainy day? It's always the fault of someone else when things go wrong.

And your point is?

. So come on then, what on my list is more important than food for the kids?

Nice to know the recipients of my taxes are so grateful for the free handouts they get. I suspect you feel entitled to more.

So could you give me a reference to that figure of 99.9% and I might just be convinced.

Nobody has yet had the courage to say where on that list parents should prioritise the supply of food to their children. I posted it twice as it was obvious that debaters on here were choosing to ignore it.

Are you saying there is no abuse of the food bank system, ever.

Please keep up with the debate rather than jump in with your own prejudices. Firstly I have never vilified anyone with a true need for food banks, and secondly I do donate weekly. Cue an insult.
