Tess Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I read this. Not sure where they got their maths from but I'm pretty sure, if both on minimum wage, they'd still earn more than they get now. In addition I loved the poor excuse of their parents working so it was ok to claim "their" benefits.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnvqsos Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 You can't claim benefits for a while if you get sacked. You can if you are over 65! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southcoast Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 The Sun is part of News International, which avoids paying the taxes it should pay to the British government. They like to publish stories about small numbers of people on benefits, implying that they are typical scenarios, to distract people from the thieves and parasites who run the world and who never feel rich enough. Very well said,the rich are the main thieves in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truman Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 It is what the typical couple on a state pension receive-WOW!! Really? I work out that a couple's yearly state pension is around 11k a year £214*52... Where does your extra 6k come from..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodmally Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Pointless thread that will go round in circles once again and end up precisely nowhere. It will because the lefties seem to think that everyone is starving and living off food banks. Its disgusting that we have to pay our taxes to sort this out.

If both have separate pensions in their own right they will receive £142 each,making about £15000 per annum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anna Glypta Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Wonga has given contributions to the Tory party and one of their lobbyists used to be an advisor to Cameron. That'll be why the government has given the OFT powers to clamp down on the pay day loan businesses after the last government allowed them free reign for 13 years. I would have thought a taxman would have known that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought a taxman would have known that. That still doesn't refute the fact that Wonga have given money to the Conservatives in exchange for meetings. I'd have thought a ....whatever you are, would have known that. You also failed to refute the fact that a senior advisor of Cameron's left to join the company.

I would have thought a taxman would have known that. I think the issue has sharpened since the recession has become embedded,causing a sharp deterioration in living standards,especially for the lower deciles in the income distribution. PS The taxman is no more an employee of the HMRC than I am.Perhaps you are not an anachronistic style of wall-covering,but a disgruntled decorator.
