He's not wrong though is he.
Evidence? I bet you cannot provide any. Prove me wrong about my life’s experiences, go on. Knock yourself out.

Why would I want to describe your life Prez, it must be like a Hollywood blockbuster! However, moving on, ETR is absolutely right to point out that the welfare reforms were a human catastrophe. Wouldn't you agree?
So no proof. There definitely was a need to reform welfare, it’s implementation was an absolute cock up.

For the record I support 100% the need for a fair and just welfare state protecting the vulnerable in our society and I believe our taxation system should reflect the needs of others. You will never see any post of mine where I have objected to personal taxation and on occasions considered an increase just.

My loathing however for those that abuse the system is extreme and persistent offenders should be punished fully. I have no sympathy for lazy gits who choose not to work, using benefits as a lifestyle choice.

PS. Yes I do also have experience of people who chose a benefits lifestyle, working the system and proud of it. Extended family members with whom I no longer associate.

It wasn't a cock up. It is working exactly as it was designed to. You don't offer assessments out to tender with minimal requirements for competency and incentivise finding people fit for work unless you fully intend cull large numbers of disabled people.

What are you on about - no proof? I said he's not wrong about the welfare reforms being a disaster. Get a grip man.

Look back. Most of his points were an attack on his perception of my knowledge and experience. Which are completely wrong. Sadly like most stuff on here, we move away from the topic to personal assumptions and insults thereby not covering the main points. If you look at Eats general posts they often deviate into insults. Sad really. He may well be able to make some valid contributions. If the thread went off topic, don’t blame me.
