It had never crossed my mind that they only depicted the dole cheaters as being white. How true.

[piflover]

I can't remember a single ad since this one where they've featured a non-white dole fiddler. Interesting ...

It's the disgusting 'GRASSING' culture I find creepiest about this goverment. t

[piflover]

Do you mean whistleblowing on each other's expenses, or encouraging people to turn each other in for dole fiddling?

What is a benefit fraud?

[piflover]

It's when someone claims state benefit that they're not entitled to. In this clip, the woman says she's going to "sign on" (for the dole, ie. unemployment benefit) even though she has a job. So she should not be getting unemployment benefit. People do it in other ways too eg. they claim family support as a single parent but in reality they're living with someone else.

There are plent of parasites. The Duke of Westminster owns 7,000 million and didn’t earn a penny. He was born rich and has never contributed anything useful in his life. His wealth increases by £1000s every day while he sits on his arse. Cameron and his family and friends are very rich social parasites themselves. They divert your attention to ‘benefit cheats’ while they screw us legally via the laws of capitalism

If hard work gets you wealth then why aren't retired firemen and nurses rich?

Stealing from the Taxpayer is a Crime. No ifs, No buts, just ask Tony Mcnulty and Jacqui Smith!

[policechaser]

How about putting a stop to the Banksters and the Market thieves, saving billions in one fell swoop, instead of pennies at a time; you bureaucratic morons.

[Oneworld87]

@UselessParasites how can one "fight" for one, whom is the biggest landowner in the world, comprising of countries in poverty and doing nothing to reduce this effect (e.g. Papa neu guina)?). The point is, you are NOT fighting for the people, you are going to war for a VIOLENT MONOPOLY (a class of individuals who will kill to sustain their wealth and control over the population) -- a government. We need to realize that we do not need these stratified power structures and remove them!

Uk government useless LAW.

You must deport all Indian and others.

Shut all job centre.

I think what they really mean is "You're stealing cash, that we take from tax payers. You're taking the proffit we steal from tax payers." Yes this situation is wrong, but 90% of people accused of fraud, aren't frauding, but are still found guilty for trying minor things like "Walking to the shops slowly, to get some bread, with a trolly to hold into as I walk" apparently, that's not allowed, you're disabled, stay at home and rot. Bullshit, jealous assholes leave people alone.

Chaz from emmerdale.

[dudgeware]

My missus used to sign on while working. It was legal. She was only working part time but she worked all the hours she could get and still signed on. When you only earn 80 quid a week part time, you need state help to put towards rent and council tax.

2.5 million unemployed, and now the government want to push people off sickness benefit into work. When will they realise that before they can do that, they have to create the jobs. Cut immigration, simple. Most people WANT honest work.

Racist attack on white people and native British again, only white people do crime, right ?

[Emma20055]
