    A million people??!!!! Who don't want to work? Really?

    OMG what bias.

    I'm guessing she was referring to the unemployment rate when the polish migrants were arriving and going straight into work. Contemplation are you saying their isn't an underclass?

    I hope that Mary Creagh realises that Labour was the government referred to by the woman in the audience when she mentioned the creation of welfare dependence.

    They collapsed because their subsidies were revoked, or the work was moved so the goods be manufactured cheaper.

    I do wish Grant wouldn't go on about work paying more than unemployment.

    It is no good earning £10 more than benefits only to have to pay £100 out because you are now working compared to the help you could get if you were not working.

    How did they make people dependent on benefits?

    By throwing money at people and paying them to stay at home.

    Labour broke the limbs of an entire generation, making them dependent on benefits.

    That doesn't make people "dependent". That's like saying giving someone a free gym membership makes them exercise dependent, or giving them free food makes them food dependent.

    They are still not dependent on benefits are they?

    I would think that having only 500,000 jobs available and 3 million unemployed would make people dependent on benefits.

    The Tories in the 80s put most people on disability benefits.

    It makes it easier to just push out children from random men.

    Watch pretty much any edition of Jeremy Kyle and you will see the result of Labour's approach to benefits.

    Watch the same show in America and you'll see the problems they have.
