and the difference that makes is? IDS spouted crap and has been pulled up on it its irrelevant who did

oh and incidentally he is trying very hard you string up the scroungers lot should be praising him

see blinkered that in itself proves my point all along. You worked hard to get out of that situation before this is today a totally different climate. Only those in the position today knows what it is like today I know you have worked hard and still do and are not comfortable as it were and I do respect that side of it just not your political viewpoint on this issue
