Re: The state benefits system mega-thread. Many merged.
Yes the benefit system is flawed but Arthur it isn't just immigrants taking the mickey out of the system we have enough home grown to be a problem although not quite the scale of problem politicians want us to believe. Sadly this will continue because this government is doing absolutely sod all to make the system less easily used just indulging in headline grabbing soundbites that make little or no difference to the integrity of the system.
This govenment like all others before it has no interest in really making the system secure because they want to be able to manipulate it as they want like all others before them. Until we hand the integrity of the system to an independent group whose sole aim is to make the system work as it is meant too we will never have a benefit system as free as it can be from fraud and misuse. Right now this government is cost cutting usually hitting the genuine more then the frauds and pretending it is reform and forrtunately for them most of the public are buying it.
