New council tax bill

[mad-moon]

O diddums

Nop i have been unemployed for less than 10 days in all my life. I had income based benefit in that time which is what i was entitled to thru my NI contributions i paid [I think its 13 days max!]

Bunch of mugs if you ask me.

Tell you what come and pay my electric bill will ya.

So you've been lucky enough to work most of your life, can pay your way, but are extremely unhappy, because of said fact...but put the shoe on the other foot and imagine just for one second of your perfect life, if you could not work for one reason or another, would you take advantage of the system so you could have some sort of existence and or quality of life????..

Andre, I normally find your posts amusing, in a car-crash Jeremy Kyle sort of way, and your knowledge/experience of things vintage enlightening, but this Coronavirus is serious stuff, which quite a few AoS members and their loved ones are rightly concerned about. A bit more sensitivity wouldn't go amiss.

We should be pulling together at this time, not scrapping

Look after No.1. Learned that a long time ago..

So why bother being a member of this community?

Over the coming weeks/months more and more people are going to have to rely on support from government at various levels. Would you begrudge them this? Chances are some members here will get ill and I hope they will look to AoS for some moral support at least. I'm guessing you would find even that difficult to provide.

Indeed...

So I'd like ALL input here from now on to reflect the above. If you don't have anything positive or constructive to say, then say nothing. Ta!

Is this like Going on Holiday all inclusive but just throwing the money away, not using the facilities, but its just in case i run out of dosh? My main argument is we never had to pay for this before.

If someone is being negative and destructive and I contradict them am I being positive and constructive? OK. I'll behave.

You lot have got to understand that people are entitled to their own views. I learned to look after No.1 & trust no one because everyone ive trusted in the past has back stabbed me, You lot are actually showing your true colours [Behind a Keyboard as always] so you know why should i not look after myself. However people that know me know i am my own man, Not a YES man. Im breaking no rules so kindly put up with my view
