How many OAPs woukd like to receive this per month/year

Posted by Liz Dance on 11/5/2025, 9:29 pm

How in earth is this right that this female receives so much in benefits when OAPs had their winter fuel payment stopped, and she is still complaining about where she lives, this just can’t carry on the country can’t afford the benefits paid to certain people.

And I'm trying to work out why is she disabled?

Is it:

a) Stupid

b) Blonde

c) Fat

Or all three/

Sorry for being blunt, Liz, but it angers me, aswell..

Moved from Lincoln to London to become a hairdresser, got a second dog, not allowed without permission from the council...and the dog has dandruff...REALLY, and is stressed!!

Talk about trying it on?

And HOW the heck does she qualify for THAT level of benefit???

Malcolm, she has something called hyper mobile syndrome or whatever, supposedly has difficulty in walking, thing is how on earth does she exercise not 1 but 2 dogs, how have they calculated that she needs that amount to be paid to her in benefits, if she needs that amount then surely OAPs need at least that amount!!!

This female could now live a life on benefits first say 46 years if she reaches 80, just taking the benefits she currently receives that would equate to a payment of almost £1,25,000 during her lifetime, that is just one example, the country just can’t carry on like this.

The whole system makes my BP rise, I must try to calm down, maybe I could try to work out how I can play the system seems like a nice little earner.

My sister had a council flat in Pimlico, Westminster council, from late 1950’s until 1985. The council rules were very strict and no animals allowed. It the Labour councils that have changed all the rules through the years and made a lot of council areas sink estates’.

Sorry the amount should read £1,250,000 a staggering amount to receive from us the Tax Payers for doing nothing.

She obviously knows how to play the system, I would think she gets disability benefit, mobility allowance an̈d PIP as disability benefit does not pay that amount. She'll also have a rent allowance and rate deduction. I would take what the Mail said with a pinch of salt as the back story verging on the ridiculous.

I like the quotes "The young woman said she makes £2,300 a month from her disability and unemployment benefits " & "A disabled woman who says she earns £2,300 in benefits a month has revealed how she despises her local council for 'making her dog depressed'."
Not a bad living for sitting on her backside with her dogs. Sounds like she has to work really hard for that ammount. What a joke and she wont be the only one.
Can you get Head & Shoulders for dogs?
