West London borough set to axe street bins ‘because they attract rubbish’

Quote

A council is to remove litter bins from residential streets, claiming that they encourage “abuse” of the facility.

Kensington and Chelsea council will only offer passers-by a place to dispose of their rubbish in busy areas, including shopping and tourist streets and outside schools, fast food restaurants, Tube stations and bus stops.

The council feels that the bins are being used to dispose of large quantities of business and residential waste rather than the small items for which they are intended. A trial saw bins removed from one side of Earl’s Court Road, and council officers reported only a very slight increase in littering.

I saw that the other week....  noooo:

I tells ya, I'd have no shame in returning to the UK and living off the state now... if every other fucker can do it I can't see why I can't...  cussing:

I was reading one of the bloggers the other week (Anna Raccoon) who had been on the spongers website and calculated the amount she could get from the state - it was enormous! She'd just have to sell her pad in France, buy a small place in the UK, spend the remainder on a new Aston Martin for hubby (to get under some savings threshold) and she'd be made up!

And did you see this one???

Quote

IT'S madness: She beats jail and can now claim double.

Britain's farcical benefits system was exposed yesterday after a cheating mother was told she can now claim twice as much rather than go to jail.

Joanne Gibbons, 23, fiddled £3,140 in income support while holding down two jobs, a court was told.

But after she was caught it was revealed the shop assistant mother-of-one was entitled to claim £130 a week – £64 a week more than the amount she was swindling the taxpayer.

omg I know!  Yargh: Yargh: Yargh:

My auntie works for the housing dept in Newcastle and the stories she tells me are unbelievable. Recently, after providing a home, furniture, curtains, carpets, flat screen tv etc to some pondlife, ,scrounging scum-monger, she received an almighty storm of complaints because the cotton sheets provided were lilac. One of the quotes was "if you think my f'in son is gonna sleep with lilac f'n sheets you can....." etc.

Ahhhh, ,gratitude.  cloud9:

I couldn't do her job. When I watch Jeremy Kyle I lose the will to live.  noooo:

200 Military trainers to be sent to Mali

This makes little sense to me, how is the war on terror going to be boosted by putting 100 dusky soldiers in olive-drab sports footwear?
