Default If Cameron moves into Number 10

Hello,

If Cameron moves into number 10. Does anyone know what the Conservatives plans are for "Benefits".

With regards to New DLA claims made from outside UK (i.e EEU) and Exported Long-Term Incapacity benefit?

Are we all doomed

Give him a chance, his foot is not over the threshold yet, and I think he will have to sort out bigger matters before he starts on things that only affect a smallish number of people.

Paid for with his expenses of course.

Paid for by expenses of course.

There will be carpets to be ordered, bathrooms to be refitted, new kitchen etc.

Of course,these guys always get their priorities right and anyway I don't think they'll be wanting to use Browns tatty old stuff,..... not that he'll leave much behind anyway being a typical tight-fisted Jock.
Gordon and the Mrs will most likely strip the place bare and have a day out at the car boot.

His first job will be to get Rent A Kill in & fumigate the place making sure they do every nook & cranny.
That Nu-Labour-Mandlson infestation can be very tricky to get rid of

I would suggest, a lot, including the fact that Clegg's wife is Spanish, and a million of us expats are dependant on the exchange rate.

However, I think we're going to get a rainbow coalition if Brown tenders his resignation.

And also Cameron said that his Mother-in-Law DEPENDS on ATTENDANCE ALLOWANCE TO SURVIVE.

If that is truel he must be a sh*t of a son in law, and his wife cannot be much better.


I dont know how much attendance allowance is but we are not talking about a fortune here maybe 100 quid or so.

If the mother in law of a man worth an estimated 30million needs attendance allowance to survive, then that shows how much he cares about the "poor and disabled" that he has first hand knowledge of.

If that is how it is for the "close to his heart" people, than the expats in Spain will be left out in the cold.

Just looking at Brown's home on TV at N.Queensferry where he's holed up at the moment.
Must be worth a million or two.
By comparison Camerons place looks more like a council house,but suppose thats just for the public eye.

Cameron's got at least 2 places (like most MPs seemingly) one of which is in Notting Hill where even a modest place can be valued at millions.

I think all 3 of them should hand over their Plantinum Credit Cards, Cash, Mobile Phones, Hand-Made Saville Row Suits, Gucci Loafers, keys to their homes and cars. Then let some poor family/OAP live at their luxurius homes (take your pick) for a month. Having 3 hot meals a day (cooked of course by a professional chef), a hot bath, heating, hot water on tap etc.

Then

Live in the shoes of some poor old age pensioner/deprived family, who have to suck on a polo-mint, then stick out their tounge so everyone can warm their frost-bitten hands around it to keep warm, warm their tin of beans over the one remaining candle, throw their last orange box on the fire (which used to be their only place to sit). And count how many new patches of mould have grown and crawled up the wall since they looked last time (they don't have a 50" flat-screen with surround sound to watch). Anyway it's better then going to the kitchen to watch the coachroach race.

Or better still, stick them all in a cardboard box, (they can have a small blanket), and put them in the door-way of Harrods, begging for a penny, even borrow someones baby or starved looking dog, that way people might feel a bit more sorry for them. You never know they may earn more doing that then the benefits they would have applied for, and turned down for. Cool, two tins of beans to share between 3. Life is looking good!

LET THEM SEE HOW THE OTHER HALF LIVE WHO HAVE TO SURVIVE ON BENEFITS, OR WHO CAN'T GET A JOB BECAUSE THEIR ARN'T ANY.

And you think that is his only home, he was claiming the second home allowance up to 5 quid less than the maximum allowed.

Here is a photo of his little place in the sticks.....this one definately does not look like a council house.

The upmarket firm Oka, was co-founded by the Tory leader's mother-in-law Lady Astor.

As she is Lady Astor and attends the house of lords, we would say she claims Attendance Allowance, but that would be the expenses she can claim for actually 'attending' the lords chamber, rather than claiming 'attendance allowance', for those with disabilities. However, that is not to say, she has not, only that she would not need to financially.

Samantha Gwendoline Cameron (born 1971), is an English business executive.

Clegg wife's Miriam Gonzalez Durantez , law firm has warned against coalition - Times Online
Clegg's wife is indeed Spanish.
