Yesterday, I took Bilbow to Morriston Hospital in Swansea, for an appointment. Whilst we were sitting in the Waiting Area, a middle-aged chap was talking to some friends of his. Due to the quietness of the area, we could all hear what he was saying.
Basically, he was complaining that he had just returned from a ‘cruise’ during the course of which he had been seasick! He was making the point that it was his 12th Cruise, and he had never before been sick! He went on to say that it would be some time before he could have another cruise, as his partner is expecting their EIGHTH child!
When he was called in to have his appointment, his friends confided that neither he nor his partner had EVER worked in their lives, but could still afford these cruises due to all the ‘benefits’ that they receive.
If I was not already feeling sick…………………………!
I feel for you D!!
Completely mind boggling.
Well, with eight children he would get a lot of benefits!!! LOL
It just dawned on me. What “benefits” are you referring to?
Child benefits, Job Seekers allowance, Council Tax rebate, Housing allowance, etc.
Things are very different in England. Nobody could live like that off the gov’t with the eight kids. Your system is seriously different from ours!
That’s our loony left for you. And, of course, all good Labour (Democrat) voters!
