    I dunno man. I used to be on the dole, it was something like 56 quid a week? Anyway, I didn’t have the money to go into a mobile phone shop and get shopped into a 30 quid contract. I had the bog standard pay as you go.

    Seo and getting dunked on by salespersons are not good excuses for why the state should manage a persons money. If you are skint, you tend to be really good at budgeting.

    The issues tories have is with people who want to have it ‘all’ and not cut their cloth accordingly.

    Granted I’m fairly sure if every poor person sat on their hands all day, they’d complain about that too.
