It's from the Daily Fail but still:

16 kids but don't claim benefits apart from Child Benefit.
How long before we have a news headline like:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2237344/Br...
16 kids but don't claim benefits apart from Child Benefit.
"Local authority builds new primary school.... for one family!"?
Part of me thinks, when seeing stories like this, that actually the Chinese "one child" policy or whatever it is, isn't actually that bad an idea.
The country cannot financially support these huge unproductive families. And on a wider scale the world population is rising at a completely unsustainable rate.
If you're not funding them yourself, IMHO, you simply shouldn't have the "choice" to have such a large family. Everyone I know with kids has to really think if they can afford to raise them properly given their available income. And uses contraception accordingly...

Or what about the 1970s (iirc) Indian Govt. policy - well, mooted. Pocket radios as gifts in return for agreeing to be sterilised? Cheap at a fraction of the price.The country cannot financially support these huge unproductive families. And on a wider scale the world population is rising at a completely unsustainable rate.

Rumour has it that Tony Blackburn put paid to the policy - just not viable once he got on air... No takers.

Be fair to her, she sacrificed living in a rural 'idyll' so the council could make some money selling her rented accommodation, a converted vicarage worth over £300K. Very generous of her.

According to the Wail, on her front garden (it's really her concrete drive; but never mind) she has "a skip, an old battered minivan, a Robin reliant and a new car". Mail hacks are utter morons. It's a fking minibus, not a minivan, an LDV Convoy to be precise. The "new car" is a Citroen C3 Pluriel, and as for "Robin reliant", the model is Robin, the maker is Reliant (of Tamworth, Staffs) with a capital R and anyway it isn't even one of these as it's a Reliant Regal. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2283258/Do...
fkwits.
This story is another reason im really starting to feel justified in not wanting kids, rather than bitter and twisted.
Seriously i would not want to have kids when theyre gonna share their education with such mouth breathing retards. Guy next door to us (permenant dolescrounger hostel) Has 5 kids, makes out only reason he doesnt work is becuase his eldest is deaf. Oh he's an alchy aswell bragged about his free beer or whatever.
How could i be the monster if i stoved the scumbags head in.
Somehow i feel that the guy in derby did the right thing.
I know i shouldn't dislike the kids as its not their fault and there could be potential in them to break the cycle. I just feel as a tax payer i dont wanna take the chance, id rather they be post-birth aborted and their parents spayed with a spade.

Author, philosopher and political pundit Owen Jones today demanded that deceased widower Doreen Freeman be dug up and punished for her needless and vindictive diarising of scurrilous complaints against celebrity victim Hell Frost.
Speaking to the BBC's Laurie Taylor, Profesor of Trotskyism at Salford Metropolitan University, Jones stated that right wing forces had encouraged Mrs. Freeman and her son to make these unjustified attacks against the much maligned Ms. Frost and her 11 children by umpteen fathers in another vile display of political bandwagon riding. "These attacks are motivated by nothing less than a desire to set the working poor against one another and to pillory the victims of this reactionary Tory government's deliberate policy of diminishing the status of the working poor and demeaning the millions who have been rendered unemployed by the bankers.
Ms. Frost has worked tirelessly to produce children and to provide for them well from the benefits it is her right as an EU citizen to claim" reiterated Jones. Reacting to further claims against Ms. Frost Jones responded by noting that, "she paid for the parrot from her own savings, bought the flying lessons for her lover in good faith and her daughter pays for horse feed."
Can we lynch her and her kids yet?
I'm serious, i wouldn't feel any emotion towards it, or enjoy the scene, but i feel its the only way.
I used to think that the rich would have big families becuase they can afford them and poorer families wouldn't becuase they couldn't, somehow i thought this was evil social engineering. Nowadays i see the inverse, the well to do have few kids as the underclass has many, as much as i think the welfare system is needed, its become some sort of evil monster.
