This will make your blood boil!!!

Just read this in the paper this morning, you just couldn’t make it up, I think a few bottles of syrup of figs need to be purchased and force fed to these applicants - no wonder the country is on the verge of bankruptcy when people are allowed to claim benefits for ridiculous so called problems?

Liz, I’m not surprised. I read months ago, the Private Company that runs the scheme is awash with tax payers cash. It seems to be run like all Public Companies are run. Make sure you spend what was allotted for the financial year, or it will be cut for the next year.

I have experienced this myself in both the private and the public sectors - having to spend ALL the money in your budget whether you need to or not, otherwise the budget is cut for the next year. We would end up replacing perfectly good computers etc. A huge waste in my opinion!
