I agree with pretty much everything Demolition and Vicky have said. The Benefits witch hunt is just a distraction and a vote grab aimed at the middle classes who look at Shameless and think it's a documentary. The Media only run with it because Benefits (and Tax issues) are one of three subjects that will always lead to high circulation numbers, the other two being peadophillia and Terrorism. Every time anything happens involving these three, newspaper editors across the country rub their hands together in glee.

People who need benefits are an easy target, one that's rarely defended due to the fact that these people have been demonised at every turn.

If you were that concerned about Data Protection you would not have mentioned this supposed baby factory of a woman in the first place, confidentiality isn't something that you can switch on and off when it suits your argument.

The numbers don't make sense, the story doesn't make sense and that excuse doesn't cover it. You may as well admit that you made it up.
