Whilst the policies are presented as relating to anonymous Daily Mail type caricatures it is so easy to push them through with no resistance from a brainwashed population.Only when you talk about individuals is it possible for the real life stories to rise above the caricatures. I will follow this blog with interest and if you are willing I would love to feature articles from it in the blog I have just set up ( livingwithPovertyUK>blogspot.com) which is intended to break down the bland undeserving images portrayed in the media which do nothing but present all those on Benefits as Scroungers and layabouts.<br /><br />May you go from Strength to Strength.<br /><br />PeterAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11925557295859411403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940564.post-78297963181132335932014-04-08T21:55:20.692+01:002014-04-08T21:55:20.692+01:00Sound posting...the civil servants concerned ought...Sound posting...the civil servants concerned ought to be shot...furthermore the ministers in charge of them ought to be shot and their graves perpetually crapped on.<br /><br />I was once, (to my eternal shame), a civil servant, (hopefully one of the better ones), and know what an easy number it was...By the time I left I was efficiently carrying more than a double allocation of work, and it was honestly a piece of piss...I got bored...<br /><br />I recall being told to slow down because I was making the rest look bad...I recall being told how to manipulate my workload before the auditors came round, (In the case of old or dormant enquiries issue meaningless queries to show the work as fresh/ongoing, and accumulate as much untouched work as possible under two weeks old to prove a heavy workload)<br /><br />Ok I'm talking over thirty five years or so ago, but do you really think their efficiency has improved a great deal since?<br /><br />And their ministers fall for this bollocks every time...because it suits their own political needs...<br /><br />The "system" is intrinsically fraudulent from top to bottom...just as fraudulent as some of the claims upon it, and possibly more so.cogidubnushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03542717738481600745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34940564.post-20869385226483107412014-04-07T18:17:42.675+01:002014-04-07T18:17:42.675+01:00How do you claim expenses like Maria?
