I don't usually watch them as it isn't good for my BP but this was one with a difference!
Some sort of new deal where people sign over their rights to benefits for a lump sum of £26k.
So what did they do but spend £800 on a slap up meal for all the friends and family.
Next they bought a feking snake and a Racoon. Don't know what the snake cost but the Raccoon was £460.00!!!!
Had to leave it when they were down to £22k but then, just as typing this, I'm thinking "why were the cameras there"?
Whatever else, it had to be staged/partially staged, and they must have been paid generously for taking part!

If we just stopped benefits then there would be no need for programmes like this.
I wouldn't be totally harsh though and would supply a tent and sleeping bags for comfort and a fishing rod so they could feed themselves. |

Give a man a fishing rod and he can eat for a lifetime is what all these charities say isn't it?

Yep give a man a fishing rod and he'll sell it but give him benefits and he'll live for ever.
Something like that. BTW everything saved on benefits should go straight to pensions. Only fair. |

Didn't know this was an ongoing series!
Despite the deal they have, I will guarantee that when they have spunked it all, they will be welcomed back, into the cushy cozy benefit haven! So, a £26k dream holiday is there for the taking! Where do I sign please? |
