Question

Is it right that I should pay for people on council estates to drink cider?

Answer 1

Answer 2

Is it right that i have to pay for people's health care, and social dole money or whatever who have just plonked themselves on my doorstep from some far away place we havn't heard of.

Answer 3

are you mentally challenged?

Answer 4

No but we pay for their house, their medical expenses etc so why not their social life as well.  We may as well just give them our bank account and credit card details because as long as we work and pay takes we 'support' them.  I have no problem with genuine cases of unemployment and disability but many of these people we 'support' are perfectly capable of working but couldn't be bothered getting up in the mornings and taking pride in the fact that you are making your own way in life and supporting your family.

Answer 5

Is it right that I, as a consumer, should pay for free booze and expensive "goodie bags" for every free loading celebrity that attends a PR event? Or subsidise politicians fiddling their expenses from my taxes. Or have to pay tax fiddling toffs rebates from public funds?

By the way most "council estates" are now managed by housing associations, and alcoholism, as defined by the WHO, is now more prevalent in middle class suburbs and among the professional classes.

Answer 6

You could pay for them to drink lager instead. You sound very generous, if I see you in the pub will you get the round in? :-D

Answer 7

I don't think it's fair to say ALL people on council, estates are druggies, alchies, and low life.I brought 3 lovely kids up in a council house, and they have NEVER been in trouble with the police, OR brought trouble to my door. In this day and age, where housing is NOT affordable, more people are looking for a cheaper alternative, I.E,Council housing.

I live in Cornwall, and we are bombarded every year by Public school rebels, who visit Rock, in Cornwall with their "well to do" parents, (sometimes in helicopters ) and wreak havok on a quiet laid back community, swigging cheap cider, (and anything else they can buy underage) It's NOT a pretty sight, they fight each other on the beach, public school, against public school, and more often than not, get away with their disgusting behaviour, because "mommy and daddy" are able to bail them out, or buy off the coppers, it happens every year, and no-one cares, because they are rich, and can do what they like.

I have a son who works for the local Council, a daughter who is a teacher, and our youngest daughter is a hotel owner. All our kids have grown up successful, and self supporting, and non are alcohol dependent, or drug users, and they all grew up on a Council estate in Redditch, Worc's, so please try not to label ALL council estate kids in the same category, not everyone is fortunate enough to own their own home, but it doesn't mean we are not capable of rearing decent kids!!!!!

In your eyes Council estate = low life, and it's not ALWAYS  the case!!!!

Why is this guy a Snob just because he doesn't agree with the fact that benifits are being spent on alcohol which, in turn will cause these kids to commit crimes?

Answer 17

Answer 18

Answer 19

"From each according to their means, to each according to their needs."

As a non-drinking, non-smoking, employed council estate resident, all I have to say is **** ***!!!

Answer 20

What makes you think that you are paying for the cider, the vast majority of council tenants do actually pay rent!

Answer 22

Answer 23

What kind of a bloody snob are you? Are you giving out free booze coupons, and if so, please send me some. Although I'd rather have red wine than cider if you don't mind.

Answer 24

Yes, if that's what you want to do.

Answer 25
