    I'm convinced these people are lying when they say they want work. A days hard graft
    at work would kill this shower of scrounging leeches. They should also be stopped from having umpteen kids whilst unemployed because kids equate to extra cash for them and also provide a ready made excuse NOT to look for work.

    Don't give Child Benefit for more than two kids. It will be surprising how quickly people figure out how condoms work after that. I also think that a lot of people will have jobs after that.

    There are many people on benefits who are genuinely ill or actually still at least trying
    to find what little work exists. This programme could make some people believe that all unemployed people are like this.

    Problem is now people will know that for a existence of riley you just have to have kids. (I wouldn't call it a life, just an existence).

    Vote UKIP unless you want this to continue.

    I am aware that the cases featured are of the most extreme variety.

    However you do wonder whether "The Workhouse" or a more modern equivalent would deter some of these "multiple-breeders".

    Rather than handing them hundreds of pounds per week , chase the Fathers and if that fails incarcerate them and re-open The Laundry :D

    I think you need to read up about workhouses. The poor breed a lot in the past as well as now.

    It was a repeat so the chances are you've already seen it.

    You are correct, they bred like rabbits regardless of their poverty but they also died earlier and their offspring were lucky to survive infancy. Not like these days......

    Apparently there is a new series next week or the week after.
    I hope it is actually new, and not just 5mins of new footage at the end.

    Existence of riley, what f******g planet do you live on Joel, as for voting UKIP, perhaps you are happy to have a man who was an investment banker, part of the establishment that practically brought the country to it's needs. A party leader who believes women aren't worth the same salary as a man, even when doing the same job. A party leader who thinks the NHS should be funded by private insurance, Perhaps you could also explain to me UKIP's policies on education, law and order, defence, housing, can you see where I am going with this joel, the only two policies they have are immigration and Europe, actually, call that one policy. Finally this so called leader of UKIP is very secretive on how he spends his MEP allowance....vote UKIP my a**e >:(>:(>:(

    I thought she said " I;m a qualified ward Sister ""

    Perish the thought!!

    I got made redundant at the end of September and unfortunately had to sign on. Think i'll apply to go on!! I really hate it and can't wait to get back in the workplace!

    As a side note ' Silver ' has no chance of getting PIP when he is strutting around Blackpool looking like he has no mobility problems.

    Would any sane person let Julie take care of anyone?
