I'm done debating with idiots still apportioning blame everywhere except where it belongs.

My sons will probably never be able to get on the housing ladder, so my heart isn't bleeding for a lot of people in the public sector cushioned from the realities the rest of us have to cope with. If they don't like it, let them try finding work in the private sector. It's disgusting that 80% of new jobs created whilst Labour were in power have gone to immigrants. So much for working hard ALL MY LIFE and paying my taxes and national insurance contributions, bringing up my sons, as a single parent for many years, without claiming handouts, and instilling in them a sense of responsibility and independence, only to find that they are the ones shoved to the back of the queue whilst newcomers to this country muscle their way to the front.

Silly me, I should have just let them run wild, impregnate little slags, and allow other people to pick up the bill for their fecklessness.

I agree I had already come to the conclusion that 'being a good role model' is a thing of the past. My mum used to tell me 'cheats don't prosper' - we can't say that to our kids because all around them its quite obvious they do. Hard work, conscientiosness, honesty - all a thing of the past. Scams and scroungers - our future? So sad but so true. However I'm proud of my kids and that they work and pay taxes and are self sufficient for what thats worth these days
