  1. It's these people what make it hard for the genuine people and give people like Mick the opinion he has. I do admire his pride and his ability to not need it, but some people need it and the genuine ones will repay positively one way or another
  2. We just felled a sorbus street tree today with merip I was wondering if it was common
  3. My best mate lost his wife who was 23 and they had a son if it wasn't for his son and help he had including tax credits I honestly think he would of taken his own life, I helped him through some dark times and seen the full reality of it all, I certainly wouldn't call him a sponger or a poncer. Who cares what generation you are from you can't put people like that in the same bracket as the Jeremy Kyle lot. And for the record my mate has done loads for charity and raised a lot of money since his wife died also putting his own money so probably paid more back into society than he will ever get from tax credits
  4. I wish we qualified I would gladly have some of my tax back.
  5. Could of put the tax credits into a bank account and when your kids are older they could decide if they want it or donate it back to the government
  6. Agree it's the same with the dole the bone idle ones should be made to clean the streets for their dole

  10. I know what you mean about costing them more we priced a job and they said it was too expensive, they got someone else who got the bar stuck cutting a branch above the conservatory, unbolted the saw and said it was broken. they then asked for money from the job to fix the saw and cleared off. The lady rang us back up to come do the job which we charged more for. Which is why when i get things done ive learned the cheapest way ends up being the most expensive way
