I would never refer to anyone as scum, anyone over claiming on benefits is only exploiting a loophole, its up to the powers that be to plug that loophole.
Apart from that I would much prefer taxpayers money go to the unemployed or needy but not the greedy rather than see taxpayers money spent on bombs and bullets to slaughter innocent men women and children in places like Iraq and Afghanistan.
I would much prefer tax payers money to stay in the pockets of tax payers...no VAT rise for example, but that has been made impossible because of the debt we are in...partly from paying these people 'just exploiting a loophole'.
There was a 'loophole' because it wasn't expected that anyone would sink to the depths they are to rip a country off of its money like these parasites are.
I too completely disagree with the wars and see this as a huge waste of money, life and honour....BUT one bad thing does not excuse another.
