You jeering, you think you above anyone who is a claimant because you got lucky with your health.

I needed the financial help, that is very clear.

The point I made is all the noise government's make about helping people with work, training etc. is pretty much all noise. There way of helping people into work is compulsory activity that fits what employers need cheap labour for rather than suitable help.

The other point I am making is you see it that everyone in society needs to be productive paying into it, I see it as the able of society should look after the vulnerable in society. I have moaned about many things in life but I have never moaned about taxes and never about supporting people on benefits. That was the case as well even before I had ever claimed any benefits. I started doing charity work since I was 17 where I used to do furniture deliveries to elderly people's homes for a charity one day a week, and I even carried that on when I was doing 6 12 hour shifts a week.
