Rip off Britain.

[TWR]

Last night states we are getting ripped off re/car insurance, the unemployed pay more than the insured working! does that make sense?

[TWR]

They no more rush that anyone else Messi, thats life.

Im assuming that they are associating job types and employment/unemployment with certain types of higher or lower risk drivers, hence the price difference.
Perhaps radio presenters are in the same class as DJs and MCs and see them spending a lot of time in pubs drinking and taking drugs?

Or maybe more likely to be targeted (fans, non-fans, press etc...) if they are known to people Maybe for actors the more transient nature of the job, different locations, potentially spending a lot of time in cities...

Sorry TWR -I still don't understand your point about workers taking a fortnight's holiday. The premiums for unemployed drivers and for employed drivers who take holidays reflect the overall risk for each category as assessed by underwriters.

Factor, Person one has a job doing whatever, person two is unemployed, the 2 persons pay their road tax, running cost + insurance, person 2 gets to loose his / her job, if their insurance is ready to be renewed & states on his / her renewal that they are unemployed the premium goes up, whilst the premium for the employed person stops the same, the 2 persons had the same standards, eg/ running about to the shops / town, holidays but because person 2 has lost his / her job the price goes up? if that is not discrimination, what is, do you follow my point? it is totally unfair to penalise the unemployed person.
