"I am saying that it might be 100% legitimate for many a BB HM to apply for benefits and would do so same as anyone else who has been let go from their job."
We booted her, so in effect she was sacked.
So she couldn't claim straight away
Seriously. it maybe she never had time to sign off and has answers to give.
I doubt she will be able to claim anyway, you can only claim if you have so much money, and i am sure she will earn some money out of it taking her over the limit.
She can't hide her earnings either having to supply wage slips etc.
