That cannot be right can it? I mean Standee says it is easy and anyone who disagrees and can't make the sums add up is a lazy waster.

Fear not. I'm sure Standee will be along in a minute to tell us how it all works. Perhaps he knows where you can get free childcare, digs and petrol.
Either that or he'll just tell you that you shouldn't have had children without checking your crystal ball to see what your future employment prospects were.

What's fairly sad is that the lad hasn't been stuck in a little village all his life, oblivious to the world around him. As far as I can gather he's worked in both London and B'ham, at least, for periods.
How big is that bubble of his? Hasn't he got any half reality how the real world works?

Also let us not forget that our beloved Gideon is adding another 3p on a litre in January and another 5p in August which will add to travel, Food and clothing costs. I mean I know Thatcher was a hard faced **** but my god even she wasn't this delusional.

Apparently not!
no bubble here, it's a hard world, you either get on with it, or you bleat about it on RLFans each and every day.
life isn't fair, go figure, survival of the fittest I am afraid, the system and the way the world works is fundamentally wrong, I agree, but a few people rattling their keyboard isn't going to change it, nor will a few deluded individuals sitting in tents obstructing people going about their daily (and lawful) business.

Survival of the fittest eh?
So you have never availed yourself of the NHS?
Never taken advantage of a state-sponsored education system?
All you have ever required in life has been provided by you or by your parents before you were able to provide for yourself?
If the answer is yes to the above, then you really do have a right to moan about other "taking advantage", or you could simply keep your trap shut and continue looking after you and yours alone and not caring what happens to the "others"
