I had a drink in the local pub with a couple of other self-employed workers last night (03/08/22). We talked about many things, not least the problems of the pandemic lockdowns and little or no government support for certain types of self-employed companies, including ours!

We then moved on to discuss the current crisis’ – energy and cost-of-living (CoL). Both of which are decimating the two companies my friends work hard at trying to keep trading.

Then they complained about some of their staff wanting pay rises to cope with their own CoL problems, something that is impossible to do due to cashflow issues and rising costs of their own.

As a consequence some of their employees have left arguing that they would be better of on state benefits rather than having to put up with a low income that’s just above the minimum wage for their particular age groups.

Inevitably we then moved onto how the myriad of benefits people are now “entitled” to is not only undermining bosses of small businesses, but also workers as a whole.

Obviously if you’re earning £50k+ a year you’re probably not all that bothered about what other people earn or receive in benefits. But my two friends don’t earn that much and despite working all hours they can’t always afford to pay themselves a salary and often have to plough that allocated money into paying business bills.

When they heard the news about more government support for those people on means-tested benefits to help with the cost-of-living crisis (worth around £650) with top-ups available for certain other groups, it just made them even more pissed off.

It does seem that living on benefits is the way to go because in times of crisis – Covid, energy, CoL – you’ll more often than not receive a shedload of tax-free money. Whereas if you work but earn a lowish taxable salary or you’re self-employed and struggling, you’re likely to get sweet fuck all again!

I don’t know how many state benefits there are available these days, but in the link below are a few (I don’t include state pensions because they’re definitely not a benefit, but have been earned through a lifetime of paying Income Tax and NI contributions)

Some benefits are means-tested, some are taxable. Quite often if you work and earn a taxable wage that is just outside of any of those entitlements then you’re very much on your own. And that includes the extra Cost of Living handouts (of around £650+), which again is going to those people on benefits. However, those same people who do work and not entitled to anything will be expected to pay for it all through higher taxes and NI contributions sooner or later.

And on the subject of pensions – again if you take out pensions early in your working life because you want to think about a comfortable retirement, you often end up being means-tested come your retirement and your pensions are taxed yet again. Whereas there are many cunts out there (and I know a few) who have never worked but still end up with plenty of benefits when they reach “retirement” age, almost to the point of receiving more money than those silly workers who spent 30-40 years paying into various pensions and taxes and came out worse off!

And more often than not you’ll get the charity groups (you know, those with CEOs and board members earning 6 figure salaries) moaning on MSM and social media that the government isn’t doing enough for the poor and should therefore give all those on benefits extra cash, courtesy of the Taxpayer.

As a consequence, my two friends have said they’ll give it a few more months and if things don’t improve they’ll jack it all in and live on benefits instead (although obviously because they have worked and may have savings they may not be entitled to quite so much compared to some cunt who has never worked but has 8 kids!)

I know I’m making quite a few generalisation here, especially with regards benefit allocation (those genuinely in need due to poor health for example). But the fact is we do seem to be living in a society where living on benefits is now regarded as an essential entitlement (lifestyle choice?) and nothing to be ashamed of, just so long as the Taxpayer doesn’t complain and just keeps on paying more and more taxes to pay for it all.

Right, I am going to nominate the “New Russian Army”,

Nope not the Kremlin’s official one, but the ultra nationalist terrorist group, who may or may not have blown up some bint in Moscow.

Now the grounds for my nomination is simple.

They have a fucking silly name! Google the NRA and you get a bunch of fat yanks waving guns about, try and be clever and Google New Russian Army and yet get photos of a drunk bloke sitting in someones house eating their dog.

So top tip, if you intend to form a terrorist organisation, fuck sake give a bit of thought to your name or initials otherwise your search for infamy will be a bloody hard slog.

( By the way, my intel says the explosion was caused by a leaking fuel tank and a discarded fag but)

Nominated by lord benny (not quite deceased, but close)

A ‘flashmob’ (which appears to mean loads of dark skinned types) turned up at a McDonald’s to rob the food and pop and abuse staff and customers.

Where was this?

South Africa?

Nope.

Kingston, Jamaica?

No.

It was Nottingham, here in Blighty.

Diversity is our strength. Well it seems to be the case for those involved, as according to the article, no cunt has yet been arrested.

Mind you, if a honky had said ‘white lives matter’ during the rampage, his feet wouldn’t have touched the fucking ground.

And well done MSM on more or less ignoring this story. Fucking shithouses.

Rap and it’s exponents.

Firstly we get this:

”A lot of us are not originally from the UK – we’re second- [or] third-generation immigrants,” says rapper Konan”

Not originally from the UK? Second, 3rd generation? Well I’m second generation Irish/Welsh that makes me ‘originally from the UK’ Fucking gibberish.

Then there’s:-

“African blood but British born. Which one am I? British if I win at sport, African when committing a crime.”

No, just carrying a fucking great chip.

Some cunt called Shaybo says:-

“In England, people come from so many different places, and so many different walks of life,” she says. “For example, I come from south London, and London itself is just very diverse, and we embrace so many different cultures.”

No you fucking dont. You come from a monoculture of violence, irresponsibility and crime. All of your own making.

Topped off with this from some staggeringly talented non musician called Konan:-

“We’re just becoming really proud of where we’re from, and how influential we’ve become. It’s really important to showcase your identity and being British – this is awesome and this is who we are.”

From drug, stabbing and crime centres across the UK cities. Really something to be proud of and to perpetuate in the drivel they rap.

Albanians.

Albania, sitting like a skid mark on the edge of Europe is sending us in the UK their finest. Thousands of the dinghy riders that have arrived already this year including about 60% of the 1300 cunts who made it here on Monday 22nd are from this cunthole.

Telegraph Link

The Pakis of Europe. No cunt wants them. Here to enrich us all with sex trafficking, people smuggling and drugs. Mostly young men with no criminal record (not that it would matter) sent by Albania based crime lords to set up business in Blighty. Not the poor women and children fleeing Middle Eastern shitholes and poverty stricken Africa the fart sniffers at the Guardian and BBC would have you believe.

The real blame of course lies with our useless bastard politicians who will never have to deal with these parasites once they have abscond from their 4* hotels and disappear into the criminal underworld, unless of course its to buy half a gram of coke to snort off some Romanian slappers tits at a room in the Brent Cross Holiday Inn.

Norman Wisdom films were shown during the dark days of Communist dictatorship and he visited the country where he was treated like a hero. Now the joke is well and truly on us.

Nominated by Liberal Liquidator

Captain Magnanimous isn’t too pleased with these cunts either

Albanians are cunts, aren’t they.
