No doubt someone will jump back at me with, "all the kids will probably claim benefits too".

This place reminds me more and more of the Jeremy Kyle show. Instead of going after people like this, why don't the press pay more attention to all those millionaire tax dodgers that are protected by our present government?.

Like Girth says: they had to dig deep to find such a story.

I do not know which world you are actually living in, but your posts become more estranged from reality by the day.

"That woman is bringing up 8 future tax payers."

"Some of the kids are only a few years off working age but even if we take the baby up to working age and then work out the average tax that person will pay over its working life its considerably more in pay-back."

Err....No - "all the kids will probably claim benefits too" is about right.

And on one hand your posts support unfettered immigration into this country and claim that the majority of such immigrants work and pay their way, yet here you are claiming that the 8 kids of a pair of benefit scroungers are going to find jobs when they all grow up.

There will be no jobs - even if these kids defy the conditioning which environment and habit imposes, and actually DO try to find work - which is highly improbable.

Do the Math.

"they had to dig deep to find such a story"- more presumption passed off as authorative fact. Could you please provide genuine statistical proof for this statement?

And "millionaire tax dodgers" are a completely seperate issue - not a deflection from this one.
