Yeah, that's the one. When they were playing Hundley's recordings, her voice was chilling. Horrible.

Panarama. Ex-war veterans and PTSD. Some of them will probably be bunged into the scrounger catagory.

If they are suffering stress related illnesses they will not be able to work.

It's OK to say help is out there but it has to be known about and the illness recognised

My 8.50 holiday. Exploring the voucher holidays people take.

A glittering array of chavs, single mothers and Mick Philpott lookalikes.

One guy moaned he had no money, he had 5 kids and his wife looked like she had never missed a meal.

Had to pity them in a way, one even said her dream holiday was Magaluf.

We pay all your benefits again.

Not a bad life tbh. 2 kids and get 900 a month after rent has been paid. Never had a full time job but regular smoker, drinker and has 4 cats and 2 dogs.

****ing incredible. You cant make this shit up.

Without knowing the full story or circumstances I would probably agree with you

Does make it look bad for all the genuine cases though which many are working on low income. Let's be grateful that this sort of case is a very small percentage.

Yep, we could do with a different department of DWP for the non workers. I'd like to see that.

 

Then we could really go to town on what they get.

Quite interesting programme.

 

One of the traders bought a print he thought was worth over 10 grand. Paid 250. Finished yp having it valued and told it was worth 100. He just shrugged his shoulders and to quote Del boy said'

 

'One day I'll find something in a box that will be worth a fortune.'

 

One woman called Toni but looked like a Tony gave up her job when she became ill and moved in with her mother. She now specialises in higher quality stuff.

They were saying they buy rubbish at car boots and wonder why people buy it.

 

A bloke I knew ia writers group used to buy and sell stuff. No proper job but never claimed anything so he probably just filled in a couple of forms a year to keep the tax man happy. Don't know the full details. His partner worked.

 

Used to breed dogs too. His partner had a house dog and one day when a buyer visited he sold her dog. Well either sold or tempted. Can't remember.

His house was full of furniture and                   other stuff. Think he masde a living.

Takes a few years of knowledge building up but worth it for a younger person with a van.
