I see Housing Benefit admitted that they'd made a mistake, in the end, way after the eviction, about par for the course then...

Charlotte is a fox, I'm sure she's headed towards great things in her life. Hot women don't have to struggle for anything, and we all know this.

@politelypompous In what way are they "irresponsible"? I see them doing everything they can to get housing. Sniping at the poor for smoking or having a beer on the weekends is so self-righteous and holier than thou.

Fact: lots of middle-class kids have a SHITE diet, provided by their parents.

And depressed people are in fact incredibly STRONG since just getting through the day and completing routine tasks can be like climbing a mountain. Don't talk about things you don't understand.

@zammmerjammer The bottom line is they're irresponsible as I said. It's bad enough they can't provide a roof over their childrens' heads, they're exposing them to second-hand smoke which causes respiratory problems. Yes, middle-class ppl. do it as well, but their childrens' immune systems have a fighting chance because they're getting healthy food into them.

They're weak with all their depression issues. They need to grow up, be brave & take proper care of the kids they brought into this world.

[zammmerjammer]

@politelypompous These parents care about their kids and don't neglect them in any way. You obviously have no idea of the horror child services workers have to deal with. When they get through all the kids with broken bones and STIs then maybe they'll get around to ripping apart a family with caring parents and reasonably well-behaved kids.

...honestly...

There are plenty of middle-class parents who give their kids food & shelter and treat them like crap.

[politelypompous]

@zammmerjammer There are plenty of people who've quit smoking cold turkey-including my father so it can be done. We're not discussing middle-class people because they are putting a decent roof over their childrens' heads and nutritious food in their bellies, are they not? My point isn't so much about the bad habit itself, it's about depriving ones children which is what these folks are doing. They're selfish and irresponsible-their kids should be taken from them for their neglect in my book.

@politelypompous Bollocks. Isn't quitting smoking harder than kicking heroin? Yes, it'd be nice if they could save the money, but the same could be said of middle-class parents. Besides, they're already stressed, do we need them to be stressed and jittery with withdrawal too?
