Not at all, Richard. But if you receive benefits, that is effectively a tax discount. And if they are entitled to those benefits, that's fine.

I agree that some employees don't work as hard as they should, but that is for their employers to resolve. However it is not an excuse for fraudsters to steal our money.
Never said it did, was just pointing out that not all benefits are funded by taxation.

Many taxpayers don't work at all, you're just repeating the words of certain politicians who wanted to demonise disabled people with inflammatory language.
