We oldies in our house are safe then..we watch it for the comedic value.
Quite entertaining with some right jokers in them.
Hardly like.y to give us heart attacks as we have actually lived in the thick of these people in years gone by.

Oh yuck, how did you manage to live in the thick of "these people"? I hope you sprayed yourself thoroughly with disinfectant afterwards, you might catch a nasty dose of their foreign, or worse, a terminal case of poor.

Yeah, living up here there are whole estates with low employment and high crime rates, just something you get used to...so no problem living amongst it, especially as most of us were in the same boat in years gone by, apart from turning to crime.
So, when I say "these people" I am not looking down on them as you appear to be implying, these people are my people, we have family on benefits (who are entitled and not fiddling).
I feel no guilt for working my way out of the poverty I found myself in, and I never felt I needed fumigating just because I was poor at the time.
