And don't forget millionaires claiming child benefit." You don't claim child benefit - it gets sent to you automatically once you have registered the birth of a child. It is an absolute facking disgrace but it isn't the fault of the people who don't need it and receive it. A more fundamental point is why does anyone get child benefit? One of the biggest problems we have as a society is that people who shouldn't have children have too many of them. Paying them to have more is pretty much the last thing we should be doing. |

In fact, the failsafe way to**all of this country's ailments is to remove all forms of benefit and replace them with means tested vouchers which can be exchanged for miso soup and nappies and for nothing else.

I think thats slightly simplistic and prob not really possible, however in principle i entirely agree, wonder what % of Child Benefit gets smoked/drunk etc by Chavette mothers? |

By:
Totally agree about the child benefit scenario. You've not been around for a while IGUN?

By:
IGUN, that's correct, i actually meant to say receiving rather than claiming.

agree 100% and not only that but unemployment will go down with the extra police on the streets to combat the increase in crime |

No, Huckerson. Combination of being busy at work etc. and realising what a time drain this place is and the fact that virtually all the intelligent/entertaining posters on the football forum got banned/driven out by the mentalists. A bit quieter at the moment and feeling nostalgic so dipping my toes back into the water...
Agree my proposal is a touch simplistic but something along those lines needs to be done. The problem is that there is no pain-free, quick**solution. The only way to actually**the problem is to pretty much sacrifice a generation which is currently on benefits by withdrawing them. That would have a huge number of short-term problems (one of which is an increase in crime) but over the longer term it would remove the dependence on the State. It will, of course, never happen. Possibly because morally no government is prepared to make sacrifices of that nature (which, if true, would be defensible) but in reality because it would render the party which proposed it unelectable. |

1.Introduce life skills into school curriculum to include all aspects of life including parenthood , manners , cookery , home accounts etc. , to actually prepare children for adult life .
2.National service for anybody 16 -20 who is not in education or employment , to carry out community work . 3.Fines and short prison sentences to be replaced by work placements that actually benefit the community . 4. Abolish inheritance tax (why should anybody pay tax twice ?) 5.Abolish child benefit (outdated , should be means tested) 6.All immigrants into country should swear allegiance to Great Britain , made to learn and speak English , made to find employment , make sure all children attend school . Any not abiding by rules or committing serious crimes to be deported back to country of origin. 7 All bank charges , interest rates , bonuses to be limited by central body . |

You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave. Agreed, the 7 or 8 people on footie worth speaking to seem to have disappeared. Not surprised you're busy, the amount of people your industry has shed! Affected me big time.

Yes it seems as though Governments are more concerned with re-election than actually advancing the nations interests. However I doubt that there has really been a time when this was not the case :(

Make MP's prove they are doing it for the public good and not to feather their own nests or as a stepping stone to a seat on the board of some big corporation. Not sure how we prove it though.

1.Introduce life skills into school curriculum to include all aspects of life including parenthood , manners , cookery , home accounts etc. , to actually prepare children for adult life . This is a sad state of affairs, obviously shouldn't be the schools job but is unfortunately the best idea on this thread :) :( |

end 90% of the statistics and reports done about public sector areas and abolish public sector non technical courses. it seems to me that 75% of council and civil servants are employed wither to run courses for other civil servants or to rate other cilivl servants in some pathetic back slaping way

Makes me chuckle the way you lot always talk about chavs, the masses, great unwashed, etc. as if you're above all that and live in mansions with butlers. I bet half of you lot are jobless and living on a council estate yourself.
