Why am I paying for other people’s bad choices, my miss and I are in good jobs and have chosen not to have kids based on a fanatical perspective. We both have careers, me in the military and Leah as a senior scientist and we don’t want to lose half our income just to have a kid

The scourge of society

Don't have kids if you can't afford them. Nothing but leeches.

How did this get signed off? Did no one do any testing?

Get a job

Hey ! IainDuncanSmith you were and are shit at ministerial posts . Go say sorry to these people then retire into obscurity . The dead could do a better job than the PeriodPovertyParty aka ZacGoldsmith Conservatives .

Not paid UC some months because the system doesn’t like what day of the month her job pays her. Just when I’d thought it couldn’t get more absurd than I already knew the system was...

I was offered a free 32 inch tv the other day. I said fu*k off, I want a 46 inch Ultra HD 4K. And I want you to install it for me. The nerve.

How can this be allowed and WHO exactly will be paying the legal costs/solicitors?

lol where did they get the money to do that

criminals belong in court

Hey! Its not Gov paying benefits to those 'mums' its us. Why I as child free person should pay for someones personal decisions to have children or their mistakes of loose sexual life?!?

Good. This government is supposed to be working for the people - I see very little evidence to support this.

Just find the fathers!!!!

How do these babies magic themselves into the mums. spermalotofoveries ⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️

Good & how I hope & pray she wins, against this heartless nasty party.

No money to feed the kids but money for solicitors?

I know this isn’t the point of the article but I love the term “dinner lady”. We use “waitress”.

Who is going to do something for the hard grafting spinsters?

Why not? They’ve got plenty of time on their hands.

Time to scrap all benefits

Maybe they should take the fucking dads to court

If only they put as much effort into working full time or at all.

This sounds like stupid administration rather than the system punishing people. It needs fixing as she is clearly trying to support herself + her kids albeit whoever the layabout dad is should also be paying his fair share so the benefits system isn't having to pick up his slack

Maybe she needs reminding that anyone living on U.K. welfare, is in the world’s richest 2% of people. The very reason the entire third world seems determined to cram themselves onto our tiny island.

Can I take them to court for the 2 new wheels I’ve needed because of all the pot holes?

Years ago I was single parent in year two had notification that was overpaid so for that year we lived on £3 week for food and there was no food banks then!!

Brave and well done. More should do so in fact Labour should support people to do so. jeremycorbyn MarshadeCordova

Good for them. I hope they win.

Welfare, this is why the 3rd world illegally migrates to western countries!

And how are they going to pay for this? More free money? Be responsible with your body and job, that's how most of us do it 👍 Just an observation 🤔🤔🤔🤔

Mums 'choose between food and heating' as they describe life on Universal CreditDesperate families on Universal Credit in Kent have opened up about the reality of life on the new benefit system - and how they are struggling to cope This is shocking and their are no other words Terrible when it's a mistake from the DWP however even without the disability part, I'm sure they should be getting more. Something doesn't quite add up. No responsibility for the position they're in then? No extended family, or friends that could babysit if she got a job, even a part time one? Welfare is a safety net not a top up on your husband's wages. That money comes from taxpayers.
