Any Sympathies For This Poor Couple?
112 Answers
Clearly getting a job has not crossed their tiny self centered minds. Now I know they are both not carrying a full load but surely anyone who cannot see the problem should not be walking the streets, let alone be responsible for children.

I'm not sure the Job centre send you for interviews-, mamyalynne- I think they provide lots of info on vacancies both online and at the job centre and provide a job coach but they expect you to make the applications and do your own job searches or else sanctions can be applied. But I am not sure they were still using the services of the Job Centre while they were out spending the money as presumably they saw no (short term) point in going to the JC while they were getting no benefit paid
If you are on a good income for several years and financially stable then yes it's okay to buy some large TVs or other luxuries (although I don't have one). Biut if you've not had a job for 7 years and win £5000 there must come a point- maybe when you've got maybe only £10000 left- where you think " hold on, I'd better not buy any more designer clothes or TVs or spend £70 a day on food as I may run out of money soon"
My son was trying to apply for benefits during his break - owing to illness - from uni. He was expected do to be at the job centre every day, all day, applying for jobs. The bus fare there each day would have cost more than the benefits he would have received.
The job centre don't provide interviews; they just make sure you can't have an easy life on benefits.

Don't believe all the "quotes" you read in the Mail or other similar newspapers.
My son was featured in the Sun about 5 years ago (he was couriering an expensive item and took a photo of himself with it, a "friend" sent the photo to The Sun).
The Sun rang him up for a quote but he refused to give one (as he may have lost his courier job).
The next day was a huge article about it in the Sun with all sorts of quotes from him (like sleeping with the expensive item and kicking his wife into the spare room).
He did not have a wife at the time, or a spare room, it was all made up.
Ever since then I have refused to get worked up when I see articles like this when someone on benefits says "I want a larger TV" or "I want a holiday abroad".
It is probably all made up by the newspaper.
