There's a bicker over benefits on tonight's Big Brother 2017.
Yesterday People’s Housemate Tom, split the housemates into citizens: Kieran, Mandy, Joe, Kayleigh, Imran, Ellie, Deborah who are waking up to comfort in Rose Cottage and exiles who are waking up in dingy Thorn Cottage: Chanelle, Arthur, Charlotte, Lotan, Rebecca, Raph, Hannah, Sukhvinder In tonight's show, for a task, the citizens and exiles compete in a head to head game. Big Brother asks pairs from each team which salacious headline they think represents which housemate on the opposing side. Imran’s correct headline is ‘benefits backlash’, he explains, “As you know, I was married at a young age and have been working my ass off. I’m sick of people making excuses. I’ve had to travel all over the country to find work. Get up off your ass and find some work!” Following the task, in the bathroom, Arthur and Imran get into a disagreement. Arthur tells Imran; “My view on benefits is that you should take whatever you can. At the end of the day, if you got it you’ve got to flaunt it. There’s a system so play it.” Imran disagrees; “How can we progress if we just think about ourselves? We have to help each other.” Arthur thinks ‘it’s jealousy’. Imran says; “It’s not about jealousy, it’s humanity. You think it’s OK to exploit the Welfare State? I disagree with that.” |

I think Arthur is just trying to be controversial because I doubt he's ever been on benefits

They're both talking crap, each of them representing the worst stereotypes of each side of the debate.

I thought they'd be the other way round, I thought Arthur was going to be like "peasants,, stop stealing the money taken from my bank account for existing" while Imran would be like "people need help y'know!!"

Am I missing something?? Imran saying he gets off his ass and does everything he can to earn a living rather than sponge off the state...and Arthur tells him to play the system...
...and Imran is getting negative comments??? |

Maybe it's like that stupid meme I see on Fb from time to time, the one that's like "nerr I'll grab a job from the job tree" that unemployed spongers who have no intention of working post?

It just sounds like something the producers have told them to argue about

Arthur is also being a knob. Seems he is just trying to be controversial as I seriously doubt he has ever been in the position to even think about benefits, let alone attempt to claim any.

Because imran is implying that everyone who receives benefits are just lazy and don't work...

OK...point taken. Had he said he was on benefits though I bet there would be a few condemning him...

another vice

I agreed mostly with what Arthur was saying, except for the 'jealousy' part, no idea what that was about. Imran is just one of those typical people who thinks he's ~worked so hard so he doesn't approve of others being on benefits.
Arthur's "play the system" comment was great btw Last edited by caprimint; 08-06-2017 at 01:51 AM. |

Arthur came off looking like a massively spoilt brat today, I do love that both Imran and Sukhvinder are on the show not to benefit themselves but to actually make a difference, Something refreshing unlike Arthur
