I try not to watch them, as it just raises my blood pressure...
That Yon wants shooting! And the lad with no legs?! Why let him in, when he's clearly unable to contribute, ever
My face is pretty purple right now, knew I should of watched Netflix instead
Same and the fact that my Mrs gets annoyed at me shouting at the telly.
Why can't he contribute, nothing stopping him
Sitting behind a desk typing on a computer
There is. Can't speak English, can't read English, can't write English. Doesn't need or want to work. Been here few years already and not even tried

Exactly as Ray says. But it's bloody impossible when missus watches this tripe. Really makes me spit blood. I'm not against immigration but these guys and gals are contributing nothing to this country.
I see no decent reason to allow people to come here purely for benefits. Come here for a job yes, crack on, but it shouldn't be allowed just to live off the state. What benefit is it to the country?
and yes before all the guardian readers jump on me and say Brits are bums too, the same should apply for those no marks. Get food stamps if on dole, and do community service in exchange for money

I'm avoiding it too. Mrs Croppie hates it when I lose me rag at the magic light box.

Yep. Half benefits and double pensions.
The first are way overpaid and the second way underpaid. Its an effing disgrace.

you never know if he gets gets a british passport he's a team GB gold medal winner in something at the paraolympics.
Hahaha if I was drinking a beer it would have soaked my ipad reading that. The beauty of it is, if he wins, he's a Brit, if he loses he then becomes Romanian again
Yes, but what's your point here?

Really disgusting that the tax that's stolen from my wages is given to these people. I will gladly have a Union Jack tattooed on my face and pay 50% tax. Only on the condition that if you can work and don't your excited on the spot or sent to live in Romania for 5 years...... If you survive I bet u don't come back and sit on your arris?

I'm good Allan
i only caught a bit of this but the big romanian guy who wanted to build his own house and sent £800 A WEEK back to his wife and kids, was getting child tax benefit, working tax credits and child benefits. HOW WHEN HIS KIDS ARE IN ROMANIA?????????????????????????
if thats the case i'll give up work and tell dwp i have 20 kids in Oz and i'll claim thousands a week

Put the benefits claimants on exercise bikes with dynamos feeding the national grid for 8 hours a day. Should be able to close a couple of power stations then. Might give them an incentive to find a job then. It's green and good for their health. Did I mention if they drop below a certain rpm they get whipped mercilessly? ; D
You can add prisoners to that bike based power farm. And if we cant have death penalty for major crime then induced coma so we can feed them through a drip and stack them in a warehouse so prisons could be manned with fewer staff.
This country has sold the now non existent indigenous (thanks Labour) people down the river. Deliberately not putting a cap on immigration is one of the main contributing factors as to why our wages have dropped!!
I like programs like this I really and truly enjoy them ....... It does really show what is happening "next door" to each end every one of us living in UK ... , and the SAD thing is all levels of the government KNOWS about it but do nothing about it !
I am one sad immigrant my self , as I dont get any benefits 🙁 ,
but I will be ringing few numbers today to try and sort my self with a bit of that testy cake 🙂

Have you ever been in the position where you have needed help from the state, eg you have lost your job, (it happens) more so in the building industry, you've been self employed, no option but to sign on only to be told that your not entitled to anything. then they show programs like this, get a house, car money left over to send back to wherever, Its to late to do anything about it now, no mater what government party are in power, So just keep paying your taxes and bend over even further cos were not finished shafting you yet, Roll on the Revolution.
No , I have never been helped by any for the past 14 years
Revolution = freeeeeeedom
No and you never will get any help, cos you have worked and supported yourself, just hope your never in that position, then you will think! Why did I bother working all my life ? I would have been better off on Benefits, Nothing to pay out, plenty of money , even holiday's.
Have you not seen all the previous episodes where almost every one in Hull is on the DSS and not willing to work and still have the largest TV and leather sofa ?
They must know how to get help , or they know some one that can read the low in such a way that to extract as much out of the government

Now all you lot have had your rants, do you honestly believe as truth what you are shown in programs like this ?
Does it not occur to you that your reactions are exactly what they are designed to foster & promote, these programs are not based in fact, there is no checks on what is true.
My old dad had strong views but always impressed upon us to always be doubting & question what we are being told, especially by the media. A few simple checks & some independent research / reading reveals truth.
You could say "its just TV or a bit of raised blood pressure" & it don't really matter but allow yourself to be taken in by this diatribe & that way lies great danger, apart from anything else it makes crap telly.
