Face it were the easy target unlike how the media portrays us we don't have masses of taxpayer cash lying around so that we can mount legal challenges. Fact is most of us on benefit manage to live on not that much (but enough to manage if your careful don't think i am suggesting more for us  )and given the choice would happily work and be able to pay our own way with our own earnt cash rather then having to take benefit.

That may be the case Rizzy ,i am fully aware the Tax Credit system is flawed but replacing that with a new system (and that will most likely happen in time) will take much longer than getting people who are on the wrong disability benefit or shouldn't be on it in the first place.Yes you are correct in that it is easier to sort out the fraudulant /incorrect claims so the government should go there first simply because we need to save money now not in 5 yrs time
