RickyM Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 See the blue collar Tories are out tonight. So Labour caused the global crisis? In the States, Spain, Portugal, Italy etc... Take your pick. They're idiots, that why. They get persuaded by the Daily Mail and The Sun because they can't think for themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd sooner see sense than listen to people that can't think further than the end of a newspaper headline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECCOnoob Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 What do you believe? None of it. I read a news story from somewhere usually like the Independent or BBC just for my own personal choice and then look at the facts. If it refers to a source, I glance at where that source has come from. If it quotes stats, I check up who did the research. The results can be surprising. You would be amazed how many "stories" in all the presses are nothing but hidden press releases or lobbying. That may seem extreme but its been part of my job for nearly 20 years now to read things between the lines. To research and investigate. If I took everyone and everything at face value I would have lost my clients thousands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan_Ashcroft Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 How many, for instance,) are now happy with the cuts to services for the disabled for instance? Of course it won't affect the majority of people, so they will be able to get on with their happy little lives (for now,) but it will be absolutely devastating for the people who rely on them. But as long as it's happening to someone else that's alright.. Disabled people aren't write-offs. They shouldn't be relying on benefits. They should be contributing to society what their talents best lead them to Help them back into work instead, and give them dignity and purpose It's the culture of hopelessness that is created which is so bad about a generous benefit system, like we've had for much of the past 20 years.

It's not always possible for people with both physical and mental health problems to hold down a job. An employer wants someone that is reliable whereas someone with a disability is not usually reliable all the time. Welfare is there for people that need it and they endure rigorous 'assessments' that determines their entitlement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
