there have been several high profile cheats caught just lately, boxing, weight lifting, ballroom dancing and footy refereeing, obviously something needs to be done, but as usual the innocent will suffer most

The system is awash with bogus claims, the problem is they'll never find those who have been scamming the system for years. The people who need help the most will be targeted because they are easy prey for the DWP staff.

There was a case round here last year where a guy was claiming benefit for a bad back, he'd been on disability for years when all of a sudden he's on the front page of the local papers saying he'd been caught cheating the system after investigators found him to be a member of the local running club, a few months earlier he ran the London Marathon.

All the papers ran the story.

I was just about to tell a woman she had parked in a disabled bay then i saw her disabled badge as she RAN to the shops

Tescos/ASDA are good, watch em park 60 reg motors and skip in and come out with 2 huge bags or trolleys, ive gotta get on that bandwagon
