I've worked out quite a few peoples benefits Norm, not recently though. If a person was getting that much money then they must be severely disabled (outside or inside) or a few dependants.
As it is you can't tell if a person is swinging the lead or not. Whats the saying about walking a mile in another persons shoes?
I suppose there are lots of questions we could ask this and the previous government Norm. Why is it that we give so many migrants a bed in a hotel and see our own citizens left to sleep on the street?
Why are millonaires being left alone while our sick and disabled are being told they must give up a large portion of their benefit?
How are you doing Norm? At least the winters gone. Are you able to walk your dog?

Working as a home carer i have seen how the system is worked, cars given to people on mobility who then give the car to family member, then have to pay for a taxi,for a hospital visit as the person they gave the car to is not available,I was once asked to collect the money for a pension ,one from the old book and one from the new book,both dated the same,if i had they would have said,Oh my carer said it was OK

It too hot here to walk the dog,he I quite happy in the garden but has to be on a long lead,all the dog I have had in the past would never leave the front garden on there own,this one in the house follows in about,sit down and wait when I am in the bathroom,both side of the back garden are fences,but it a wide garden cost a fortune to have a fence put up,
