The British Welfare State!

[Michael Alexander]

The new breadwinner in the family...






This is preposterous! A doctor told me that a woman in her late 20's came to the hospital today with her 8th pregnancy




She told the first doctor she saw: "My mum told me that I am the breadwinner for the family." He asked her to explain. She said that she can make babies and babies get money from the State for the family. It goes like this:







The Grandma calls the Department for work and pensions, and states that the unemployed daughter is not capable of caring for all of her kids. DWP agrees, and tells her the children will need to go into foster care.




The Grandma then volunteers to be the foster parent, and receives a cheque for £700 per child each month.




Total yearly income:




£58,800 soon to become £67200 when the 8th one is born, tax-free and nobody has to go to work!




In fact, they get more if there is no husband/father/man in the home! The brother does not count.






Not to mention free dental treatment, free housing, free council tax free school dinners, free tuition fees at college or Uni, free eyecare and glasses, free prescriptions and various other benefits...

Total value of all benefits combined probably approaching £100,000 per annum which would require an income of around £148000 to create. About my salary as a senior consultant with years of experience and surgical skills in a central London teaching hospital




Indeed, Grandma was correct that her fertile daughter is the "breadwinner" for the family.

This is how the liberal politicians spend our taxes. When this generous programme was invented in the '60s, the Great Society architects forgot to craft an end date... and now we are hopelessly overrun with people who vote only for those who will continue to keep them on the dole.....

No wonder our country is broke! Worse, our Muslim brothers have been paying attention and, by mandating that each Muslim family have eleven children, they will soon replace the voting bloc above and can be running this country. Are we alarmed yet, is anybody listening?




Sincerely,




Sebastian J. Ciancino - Urologist,

Don't forget to pay your taxes!!

There are a lot of "breadwinners"
depending on you!

Hi Mike,
               It was the reference to Muslims that tipped me off, particularly the point that Muslims in Britain are "mandated" to produce eleven children. The Islamic faith is even more fractured and schismatic than Christianity. Unlike Catholicism no single authority tells Muslims what to do and certainly no Muslim would ever take direction on the number of children to be produced. A faithful Islamist will produce only the number of children the family can care for, educate and raise properly. Nor in Islam is there such a thing as a single mother without support. That Islamists have slightly more children than Christians is due more to their sober habits and family orientation than any farfetched plan for political hegemony.

All that aside, the rest of the article smelt so much that I did some sleuthing and came up with Simon Long's piece on his blog (Google Slog). I cut it slightly for the sake of brevity. Here t'is:

"Neat idea – and, in theory – technically possible to achieve. Except that it would require a degree of rule-ignoring and braindeath not even the DWP could achieve. Briefly:

1. There is a limit to how many children can be fostered at once by one carer. It will vary in different cases, but frankly there is no way Granny could get away with it. I accept there is widespread abuse of the welfare system, but this 'example' is patently an invention.

2. The narrator purports to be Sebastian J. Ciancino, a senior urology consultant at Guys. Very impressive – except he doesn't exist. There is no Sebastian J. Ciancino at Guys. There never has been, and there probably never will be: because Seb J. Ciancio (minus the 'n') is very happy in his urology post at a clinic in Danville Illinois, USA. I know this, because he told me so yesterday.

What Seb is pissed off with is Far Right nutjobs inventing stories and using his name. The 'scam' described by the fictitious Mr. Ciancino at Guys is word for word the same as the one that appeared in August 2010 at the Genghis Khan Admiration Society site aka Exposing Liberal Lies in Illinois. This time, the ever-busy Sebastian Ciancio was sending incandescent letters to Rush Limbaugh the conservative radio host. Follow the link, and read this early comment threader who asserts:

'This has all the makings of a bogus internet lie. No mention of this doctor's letter on Limbaugh's site... only the ultracrazy Geller and other rightwingnut crazies. No names attached to the ER doc or to the patient. No substantiation of any kind. And the kicker? The kind of thing that pranksters love to play in jokes like this? Geller ripped it off from another rightwingnut blogger:
http://www.desertconservative.com/2010/08/01/welfare-fraud-at-its-worse/ '

Now the main reason I'm exposing this particular piece of old tosh in the UK is because it is accompanied by a truly vicious bit of photographic propaganda:

Yes, there they are, seven black kids – and mum pregnant with the eighth. Everything the gullible need to convince themselves that – at a time when Britain's welfare services are at last being brought under some kind of disciplined system – huge armies of grinning pillocks are taking the mickey. Except that these kids are American (the baby hairstyles are the giveaway) and this same stock photo is being hauled around endless sites in the US too.

Of course, the Left engages in the same sort of cynical manipulation of the truth. The only difference is that it has access to several MSM titles plus the BBC and Channel Four News. Another big difference is that the Left intelligentsia tends to have a higher IQ and social position than the crude Right: it is no less stupid, but it does have the massive advantage of instant credibility. The Far Right really only has the vulnerable, the put-upon, the old, and the tattooed knucklehead army to go at. Johann Hari's decade of lies, by contrast, went largely believed by the Powers that Be. But Hari has, as we know, become the Unperson not to be mentioned.

However, the Powers that Be are in big trouble. As more and more old, poor and potentially malleable people watch their means of existence being blown away by uncaring fatsos, this kind of pernicious urban myth will gain ground, and become one dangerous shibboleth after another.

The Left could not peddle bollocks without the support of some blind-eye sections of the media. And the Right couldn't invent bollocks without an Establishment that doesn't listen. The only people largely blameless in all this cess-pit of mendacity are ordinary citizens of every age, ethnicity and social class who just want a fair chance to rub along with each other.

It's been a good day today. So far I've insulted Islam, Judaism, Christianity, the BNP, the Left, the Right, The Guardian, Channel Four, the BBC, US conservatives, Johann Hari, Hitler, Stalin, David Cameron and Nick Griffin. I must be doing something right."
