Hello Everyone, I would like to share with you my thoughts about the idle dole scroungers in this country. I for one, am fed up to the back teeth with the way things are and how some people can have an easy life doing nothing whilst others make all the effort and work hard.
I own and run a small shop and work around 50 hours a week. I am very lucky to own my own flat (outright) bought by hard work and saving since I was 16. This is in complete contrast to my upstairs neighbour. He is at least 20 years younger than me and in the three years he has lived in the flat upstairs he has never worked. The flat has broken windows, he sits outside the front of the property drinking all day, and the garden is an absolute rubbish tip (you get the idea).
Yesterday he mentioned to me (as I was going to work!) that the council has cut his housing benefit by £15 per week and he did not know how he was going to manage (such a shame). He then said he wants to look for a job, but nothing pays anything like what he gets in benefits so what was the point in working.
I earn just over £200 week from my own business, (this works out at around £4 per hour, well below minimum wage) and I honesty wonder whether it is worth working any more sometimes myself as my neighbour gets almost all of his rent paid in full, his council tax paid and claims disability benefit (for alcoholism?). So pound for pound this dole scrounger upstairs is far better off than me! Is this really fair?
I often see him getting in late at night after having been out drinking, getting out of a taxi no less! My work van is 10 years old with 150,000 miles on the clock and I cannot afford to take a taxi to the post office never mind go out on for a night of drinking.
Is it just me or is anyone else fed up of working long hours with little in return whilst others seem to have a great life and yet contribute nothing to society? The thing that tops it all off is that due to the way this man lives his life and the complete lack of upkeep of his 'free' property, if I did want to sell my home no one in their right mind would want to buy it! He has in effect made my flat completely worthless which means I have worked all of these years for NOTHING! I am sick and fed up of working hard for very little return when its all laid out on plate for the dole scroungers!
Comments are welcome.
Regards
Dave

The authorities try to get them back into work but with the way Universal Credit works, the more hours they work the less free cash they are handed out. They occasionally get part time jobs on the advice of the DWP (one or two days a week), but they last around a fortnight, then sack it off to go back on full benefits until their next assessment, rinse and repeat. They know how to play the system and bleed it for all it is worth.
They doss around on their smartphones all day but are too idle to even tidy their garden, these parasites have got it made, a free life courtesy of the taxpayer.
Neither of them work, they are at home every day, and can be seen chain smoking out the back of the house and on their smart phones every half hour, takeaway`s are regularly delivered, they are both covered in tattoos, they keep a pedigree dog and run a car. When the first cost of living payment was paid, a £200 hot tub appeared at the back of their house a couple of days later, which fits in nicely with their fancy barbeque.
Gardening and general property maintenance never seems to enter their heads, despite having all the time in the world on their hands to cut hedges, grass etc. The man of their house did appear to have a job 1 day a week at a supermarket (the magic 16 hour or less per week limit as they call it), as he was seen stood smoking in a uniform, this did not last long however, he was seen in the uniform early one morning as if ready to go to work, but was seen a hour or so later (smoking again) back in civvies, so obviously he couldn`t be bothered to go to work and phoned in sick or jacked in altogether.
So, it appears a life on universal credit is rather cushy for the bone idle, they get all their bills paid, can afford luxuries like being able to chain smoke, hot tubs and regular barbeques. They can afford to cover themselves in tattoos and can afford to spend around £1000 on a dog, as well as ordering regular takeaways, they can afford to run a car etc.... not bad when all you do all day is watch TV, surf on your smart phone and chain smoke.
These leeches have a better life and are better off than many people who go out to work full time and pay they own way, it makes me sick. There needs to be a far stricter vetting process to weed out these benefit scroungers, remove their benefits and force them into work. We all know the reason these spongers shiete out a tribe of kids is purely for all the extra benefits they can trouser, it is too easy for them to play the system and choose a cushy life on universal credit.
I have no problem with lifting the benefit cap for people who genuinely need help and who are unable to work, but unfortunately there are hundred`s of thousands, if not millions out there who just con the system and deserve nothing.
First of all respect for 40 years of hard work and contributions. Top man for all that graft and contribution. Yes why indeed !!!!! The benefits system is wrong and set up to look after the lowlifes - alcoholics druggies and lazy bone idle drifters like Neil. It needs whole shake up from top to bottom. After 40 years I assume you are retired now ? If so happy retirement and hope life is treating you well. Stay safe and all the best
Pikey UK, but then again, what do you expect from a country desending into choas and anarchy!
There's a man who lives in my street who goes abroad twice a year on holiday all inclusive two weeks a time!! That's a months holiday per year!!!!
And he's never worked!!
