So you think these feckless workshy people living a cushy life milking a generous benefits system are somehow going to produce offspring that are highly motivated, hard working, high earning, net contributors to the tax take?It’s commendable that they’re breeding the next generation of taxpayers reducing the future need for immigration.
That's a really interesting preposition.
Well my local river is still of human faeces and my PIP claiming neighbour has just had her third foreign holiday this year despite being too ill to work. So I'm afraid I ain't seeing these improvements.I think from the little time they have had, there have been improvements.

Which one? Of or for?So you think these feckless workshy people living a cushy life milking a generous benefits system are somehow going to produce offspring that are highly motivated, hard working, high earning, net contributors to the tax take?

I'm not sure of the point you're trying to make in your first sentence, the discussion was about productivity in the private sector... the public sector is under no compunction to be "productive" (or efficient or competent or accountable) regardless of whether it's employees are imported labour or not.So remind me how many cheap imported labour are actually working in the public sector, whose roles can be made more efficient.
And when you've done that, you'd better start trying to encourage your own family, friends, relatives, fellow Blue Mooners to start encouraging their offspring/partners to go and work in an abbatoir, in the fields, in a care home and the like. The need for those roles will not just go away and need to be done by someone.
As for you're second para, so fine, you're happy for things to just continue as they are with an entire underclass of migrant labourers being exploited and receiving poverty pay whilst hundreds of thousands of fit, working age people can choose to effectively not work at all and just live on benefits.... Yes let's just carry on with that, it seems a perfectly sustainable and sensible way to run an economy and can't see any problems at all with it.
My sincere apologies I meant to use the word proposition, terribly remis of me to allow such a glaring error to have occurred, I promise I'll try my best to not let it happen again.Which one? Of or for?
If you think it's only a "small percentage" of child related benefits claimants who are deliberately gaming the system from the outset then I can assure you you're very much out of touch with the way things are in the real world.But you are tarring all with the same brush-very much like the immigration and violence debate. In both cases there will be a small percentage for which your presumption is true, but that is all it is, a small %.
I have seen plenty of the real world thanks having worked my way from an Ashton council house (nothing wrong with that by the way).

I’d rather you stopped posting shite rather than correcting minor spelling mistakes.My sincere apologies I meant to use the word proposition, terribly remis of me to allow such a glaring error to have occurred, I promise I'll try my best to not let it happen again.
So you think the feckless breeders don't circumvent the notional "2 child cap" by timing their breeding programme?.. That's if they've not already managed to circumvent that cap via getting their offspring diagnosed with this weeks newly invented "SEN" or "neuro-divergence" disorder.I’ve sailed passed Jacko’s comments but had a quick read as you replied. I noticed the words ‘breeding programme’ and wondered who would write in such style and what meant by it?
Can only assume that they refer to such people as ‘animals’, and not fit to be accorded the same as other human beings that what’ve generations in the UK.
It's really sweet that you have such child like, wide eyed innocence and naivety. I suppose really it must make life very simple for you.
Just because the facts of real life don't fit with everything you read and repeat in your virtue signalling echo chambers on social media it doesn't mean they're not really happening in the real world.I’d rather you stopped posting shite rather than correcting minor spelling mistakes.

Based on previous discussions with you where you proudly boasted about getting by on not much more than £100 per week, I suspect you’ve had very limited exposure to real life. You also presumably don’t pay tax so you’re a net recipient from the state which doesn’t put you in a great position to pontificate about feckless spongers.Just because the facts of real life don't fit with everything you read and repeat in your virtue signalling echo chambers on social media it doesn't mean they're not really happening in the real world.

As I said, I drive past your posts as you’ve made it quite clear that you see certain people as ‘vermin’ and cannot accept anything other than your own twisted narrative.So you think the feckless breeders don't circumvent the notional "2 child cap" by timing their breeding programme?..

Just to confirm, no migrants, no welfare, but better conditions for those of UK descent.
Reform? Did you also vote Brexit, of the elderly type and once voted Conservative.
No more needs to be said from me.
I doubt I'm as young, naive and inexperienced as you clearly are... but I can assure you I'm not an elderly brexit voter with a blue rinse.As I said, I drive past your posts as you’ve made it quite clear that you see certain people as ‘vermin’ and cannot accept anything other than your own twisted narrative.

Well you've pretty much managed to have a go at everybody over the last 2 days, from immigrants, anybody working in the public sector, feckless parents, lazy youngsters... anyone who doesn't agree with you is not in the real world.I'm not sure of the point you're trying to make in your first sentence, the discussion was about productivity in the private sector... the public sector is under no compunction to be "productive" (or efficient or competent or accountable) regardless of whether it's employees are imported labour or not.

The problem is you really do lump everyone in those groups into the same category. That clearly is not the case.
Anyway regarding the final para, how are you going to encourage the "local" population to do the jobs that we all rely on but no one wants to do.
I agree the status quo is unsustainable but the practicalities of significant change are massive.

I'm quite happy to admit that I could be described as being a member of the parasitic rentier class given that I do indeed live off unearned investment income, I do however certainly pay tax still, in many, many different ways that you obviously don't understand.. it doesn't mean I'd like to see the situation change, especially for those who benefit from it FAR more than I do or ever could.Based on previous discussions with you where you proudly boasted about getting by on not much more than £100 per week, I suspect you’ve had very limited exposure to real life. You also presumably don’t pay tax so you’re a net recipient from the state which doesn’t put you in a great position to pontificate about feckless spongers.
I still don't understand why you find it so unbelievable that living off not much more than £100 a week is possible, but I suppose not everyone can be financially competent and responsible.

As a father of a neuro-diverse child who attends a SEND school, I take offence at your frankly disgusting fucking remarks.So you think the feckless breeders don't circumvent the notional "2 child cap" by timing their breeding programme?.. That's if they've not already managed to circumvent that cap via getting their offspring diagnosed with this weeks newly invented "SEN" or "neuro-divergence" disorder.
It's really sweet that you have such child like, wide eyed innocence and naivety. I suppose really it must make life very simple for you.
And you with your rose tinted idealism lumps everyone into completely the opposite categories...Well you've pretty much managed to have a go at everybody over the last 2 days, from immigrants, anybody working in the public sector, feckless parents, lazy youngsters... anyone who doesn't agree with you is not in the real world.

ALL immigrants are skilled, qualified high earning, net contributors,
ALL benefits claimants are entirely genuine and are on benefits through no fault of their own and definitely aren't using benefits as a lifestyle choice,
ALL public sector workers are incredibly hard working, efficient and entirely committed to their jobs.
In answer to your question, surely one simple way to "encourage" them is by not allowing them the choice of doing no work or minimal work and claiming benefits instead.
And maybe they might be more encouraged to do those jobs if the pay levels weren't so low... the pay levels being so low because the employers are able to use abundant cheap migrant labour.
It's all about joining the dots and is really not that complicated when you take the time to do so.

I think we need to change the wording in the title from 'Government' to 'Administration' 'cos the last thing I think is that I'm being 'governed' but about to be mugged. I wonder if GMP could send round a bobby to cover my back as I'm coming out of Lidl!

I think it's fair to say that this fella's made some pretty disgusting remarks all round and, like Dax and others of a similar ilk, should be ignored.As a father of a neuro-diverse child who attends a SEND school, I take offence at your frankly disgusting fucking remarks.
'Othering' and castigating certain groups that don't fit his very narrow ''I'm alright Jack' views are traits that come straight out of the far-right/Reform/30p Lee handbook.
Maybe he should spend some time at a SEND school, as I did recently? I found it to be an amazing, emotional and humbling experience.
