    That's not as far fetched as some folks might believe. Eastern Europeans are apparently making a killing....and there's this gem from Mrs Haperson last December Harriet Harmon praises immigrants who send benefits to their families overseas | The Economic Voice

    You will get nothing, as you have worked and accumulated money. If however, you had pissed it all up in the spoons or put it on a horse, you could easily pick up a cheque for JSA. I would imagine that you must owe about 78k to a close friend, who will then be able to supply you with the aper trail showing it's gone into their bank account.

    I've paid in to it long enough.

    Does any of this change if I am in full time education?

    No, if you have enough money (and 80k would certainly be considered enough) plus a regular income then you are not in need of help. Cheeky cunt, it's bad enough paying through the nose in taxes for workshy chavs let alone having to do so for some chancer with 80 fucking grand at their disposal.

    Yep. Your not actively seeking full-time employment so no Job Seekers Allowance.
    Money is the root of all evil.

    But it does buy hookers and drugs.

    Give it to me. Say you 'owed it to me'


    I'll give it back to you for a small fee.

    True, but the £80k will be spent on a new house... if no help would be forthcoming (should I not get a job) then I'll have to hold some back and store it somewhere.

    You will be entitled to it because its not means tested like JSA income based which is what AM is describing above. Basically you get you NI contributions back for six months on conts based JSA.
    And they take into account your pension - so NO but you will get your NI contributions paid so you have to sign on. Fact not fiction or based on tinternet hearsay.

    Coaching done, training done - now she's just got to go out and do it. Brighton Marathon off you go.

    Success is never final and failure never fatal. It's courage that counts.

    We are called the compliance team now.

    I like the pictures on your Facebook of your civil partnership blessing. You said you lived alone?

    Hm, not looking brilliant. May have to find ANY sort of employment to tide me over whilst I finish off my final part of PGCE.
