As he pointed out: “When working people qualify for state benefits. I really means only one thing – you and me are subsidising the wage bill of the employers.”

This has being going on for a lot longer than people realise!
Subsidising companies who don’t pay enough, or take on part timers, or those on tax credit!
Wouldn’t you think ‘someone’ would do something about it? Someone in Tesco perhaps, or Sainsbury, or Asda, or in the Government maybe? No! They’re all in it together! Benefit cheats on a gigantic scale! Immoral! But legal!
That’s very interesting, Mike, I hadn’t thought of that.
Very interesting reading. Pity that cannot be circulated nationwide as I suspect few people realise what is going on.
And that’s just 4 supermarkets…What about argos, poundland, subway, costa, bookmakers, etc etc.
You know? All the types of shops that are proliferating and multiplying like rodents in high streets up & down the country while the small, independent businesses are in mass decline?
Also, let’s not forget that while charity CEO’s were raking it in, they were exploiting the very people they were meant to be helping under the ‘workfare’ programme….
But it’s only the unemployed and the disabled who are the ‘scroungers’ , apparently.
a total scrounger is someone who gets the food paid for the bog paper to wipe their arse while claiming for food heating council tax you name it they claim it even buying and flipping houses renting theirs out while renting a friends property isn’t life grand being ontop while they get their allowances of our taxes isn’t that a benefit paid for by us
