Posted August 10, 200816 yr Every family will receive £150 this winter regardless of income. To qualify you must have at least one child and be claiming child benefit. Even a millionaire will get it! Single people on low incomes and couples with no children are already saying this is unfair and has been ill-thought out. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article4493655.ece Edited August 10, 200816 yr by Crazy Chris
August 10, 200816 yr This sounds like a deliberate political "bribe" to try for some damage limitation by Broon. It's easy to target one area, like people on benefits or Child benefit rather than looking at the big problem, which is unfair increases in Gas/Electric which everyone is struggling with not just families with children. I presume Broon qualifies for this £150 as well, as he gets child benefit. So rich folk with kids will be ably to buy a few more bottles of champers then, you know it makes sense. Vote Nu labour. <_< And where will he get the cash for this, borrow more from the taxpayer, robbing Peter to pay Paul again.
August 11, 200816 yr how come?... so people on benefits get their fuel bills paid for yet everyone else who WORKS for their money has to fork out for it themselves?... ffs i reckon EVERYONE ought to stop work and claim benefits... with money for nothing ideas like this theres precious little incentive to work
August 11, 200816 yr FUKKIN' LUDICROUS...... <_< <_< What, so it's only bloody breeders spitting out rug-rats left, right and centre that are feeling the pinch right now????? Absolute fukkin' CR@P........ :angry: :angry: Sorry for all the swearing guys, but I am so bloody INCENSED about this, it's unreal..... So, Gordon Broon and Tony B-Liar would potentially benefit from this, and the likes of me and my lass who DONT have kids, and who work BLOODY HARD still have to struggle to make ends meet..... B'astards....... Honestly, I'd may as well knock up my girlfriend, then we both quit our jobs and scrounge off the state for the rest of our lives... Why the fukk not.....?????? Work hard, do the right thing, pay taxes.... We're mugs...... innit? <_< <_< <_< <_<
August 11, 200816 yr Author It's not just people on benefits. It's working people too, even high earners, if they have at least one child and receive child benefit. If you have no kids Grimly then you don't have as many bedrooms to heat or use as much hot water. :P Edited August 11, 200816 yr by Crazy Chris

Do you understand Child Benefit though? It's not just for people who aren't working. People in work and claiming no other benefits at all get it. A millionaire can get it if he claims as it's not means tested. This payment and child benefit too should be means tested. Daft that a rich family will get it too when there are single people and couples without kids struggling to pay their bills. Edited August 11, 200816 yr by Crazy Chris
August 12, 200816 yr If you have no kids Grimly then you don't have as many bedrooms to heat or use as much hot water. :P That is really just a totally bullsh!t justification.... <_< Er, sorry, but if you cant really afford kids, to feed, clothe and heat them properly DONT BLOODY HAVE THEM, AND DONT FUKKIN' EXPECT ME TO SUBSIDISE THEM..... <_< Having kids is a CHOICE mate, and a pretty fukkin' selfish one on YOUR part if you expect ME to help pay for the little fukkers..... Having kids is also a bloody BIG responsibility, one which too many of these bloody breeders are entering into far too damn lightly if you ask me.....

So if it was up to you would you abolish Child Benefit altogether? Blimey it's only £16 a week with one kid like us, hardly a fortune.
August 13, 200816 yr Would "child benefits" include EMA? If so that £150 is miiiiiiiiiine Going on from what Grimly said about having kids is a big responsibility my cousins and i were having a convo about how some parents can be so irresponsible and soon will need a "licence" before having kids (government are controlling everything else these days...). I mean you already need to go through all of these checks if you want to adopt so why not... My mate gets child benefits but not because his dad is too lazy to get off his arse and work but its cos his mum died
August 13, 200816 yr i was in sainsburys yesterday afto, there was a young woman, about 20 with her scummy chav partner, 3 young kids in tow with another in the oven... shopping with MY money! i hate the bast*rds. btw...the 3 urchins in tow were all female, so you just KNOW that in 20 years time theyll be there with their tribe of proffessional scroungers, leeching off workers.

What an awful derogatory post. :angry: How do you know the guy wasn't working nights or was on holiday/day off? They're not ALL on benefits you know! How can you assume how the daughters will turn out in say 15 years time? Edited August 13, 200816 yr by Crazy Chris

No, not altogether, ever hear of "Means Testing" Chris....? Why should the likes of the bloody Beckhams and the Blairs get State benefits FFS....???? :rolleyes: Ridiculous....

Unless they looked as though they were the sort of family who could actually AFFORD to have four kids mate (which in the present economic climate in this country would take a 30-35K a year job I reckon...), then I'm afraid Rob is spot on IMO..... I am also fukkin' SICK of these bloody breeders leeching off the system..... <_<

It's barmy that millionaires should be able to get it.
August 13, 200816 yr i reckon EVERYONE ought to stop work and claim benefits... with money for nothing ideas like this theres precious little incentive to work :lol: Good idea. Would send the country into chaos though but would do the trick.

So you're saying that poor people shouldn't have/be allowed to have kids? Thats a bit... unfair don't you think? Edited August 13, 200816 yr by Harve

How can you assume how the daughters will turn out in say 15 years time? ok... you might be right.... but id bet my life savings im not! i know the area, i know theres a huge scrounger community there. ive worked in the area (in schools) long enough to know, to spot, the sort of feckless chavette that turns out kids as a career option. ive SEEN IT all before, so its a pretty safe assumption.
August 13, 200816 yr So you're saying that poor people shouldn't have/be allowed to have kids? Thats a bit... unfair don't you think? yep. i know people even today that 'wait' until they can adequately support kids before having them. thats how it used to be. why should I pay for them to have kids?
