So no actual proof just half arsed anecdote. The nation does not run on anecdote btw. People like yourself facilitate attacks on those who do need help by your failure to distinguish between shite wrote in the media and actual real life circumstances. The curtain twitching society as envisaged by Obsorne and the notion of the undeserving poor are typical of right wing fucking nonsense. Because a tiny portion of society bucks the established norms we expect from members of society the net is cast wider and people who genuinely need help suffer as they are wrongly categorised as being feckless based on personal perceptions. The demonization of the Working class since the Bank crash has been one of the most incredible pieces of right wing propaganda in history. Blame the poor for everything, call them workshy and feckless and it deflects from the real criminals who caused the horrors of austerity in the first place.
You bought it hook, line and sinker. A useful idiot of the capitalist class.
Prior to my present occupation,i worked in the emergency services for near 20 years.I'm an expert on real life circumstances as i constantly witnessed them every day.Maybe it would have changed your viewpoint had you done similar?
