[Ermintrude]

[townfanjon]

[Ray Stafford]

I try not to watch them, as it just raises my blood pressure...

 

[PlumbersMate]

That Yon wants shooting! And the lad with no legs?! Why let him in, when he's clearly unable to contribute, ever

My face is pretty purple right now, knew I should of watched Netflix instead

Same and the fact that my Mrs gets annoyed at me shouting at the telly.

Why can't he contribute, nothing stopping him
Sitting behind a desk typing on a computer

 

[mfgs]

Programmes like that just annoy me, I see no point in putting this kind of thing on TV.

There is. Can't speak English, can't read English, can't write English. Doesn't need or want to work. Been here few years already and not even tried

 

[julesverne]

Exactly as Ray says. But it's bloody impossible when missus watches this tripe. Really makes me spit blood. I'm not against immigration but these guys and gals are contributing nothing to this country.

I see no decent reason to allow people to come here purely for benefits. Come here for a job yes, crack on, but it shouldn't be allowed just to live off the state. What benefit is it to the country?

and yes before all the guardian readers jump on me and say Brits are bums too, the same should apply for those no marks. Get food stamps if on dole, and do community service in exchange for money

I'm avoiding it too. Mrs Croppie hates it when I lose me rag at the magic light box.

 

[Ray Stafford]

Yep. Half benefits and double pensions.

The first are way overpaid and the second way underpaid. Its an effing disgrace.

 

[IDCHAPPY]

Aye, seen the first episode.... just got me foaming at the mouth so avoided watching any others :lol:

Hahaha if I was drinking a beer it would have soaked my ipad reading that. The beauty of it is, if he wins, he's a Brit, if he loses he then becomes Romanian again

Yes, but what's your point here?

 

[kris]

Its absoloutley NUTZ its a huge advert telling people why get off your arse n work when u could be on benifits like these eeediots. No wonder we like a wee hommer now n then when we see what our tax dollar is bein spent on...

 

[Ermintrude]

Really disgusting that the tax that's stolen from my wages is given to these people. I will gladly have a Union Jack tattooed on my face and pay 50% tax. Only on the condition that if you can work and don't your excited on the spot or sent to live in Romania for 5 years...... If you survive I bet u don't come back and sit on your arris?

 

[kris]

Hows it goin sir ermis of guy..... thats defo the forum back to normal with your magic roundabout signature all over the place.. good to have u back

 

[Ermintrude]

[kris]

No your name is allen with an e ...... remember i said i gave u a shout on fb. Thats why u never got it. But some poor sod got it.

 

[kris]

Your close erm alan is my middle name..

 

[missplumb]

i only caught a bit of this but the big romanian guy who wanted to build his own house and sent £800 A WEEK back to his wife and kids, was getting child tax benefit, working tax credits and child benefits. HOW WHEN HIS KIDS ARE IN ROMANIA?????????????????????????
if thats the case i'll give up work and tell dwp i have 20 kids in Oz and i'll claim thousands a week

 

[Paulplumb]

Put the benefits claimants on exercise bikes with dynamos feeding the national grid for 8 hours a day. Should be able to close a couple of power stations then. Might give them an incentive to find a job then. It's green and good for their health. Did I mention if they drop below a certain rpm they get whipped mercilessly? ; D
