I had too make sure I didn't watch it as the blood pressure would have reached an unhealthy level.

Must be hard for them to be honest.  For example, the electricity bill must be crippling, when you consider the 52" Plasma and numerous laptops on all the time.   :'(

Just said the same to swmbo..... Don't forget the chav gear, the dog, fags, booze and maybe drugs - recreational of course, that seem to be the norm, oh and then the Kid's - I can say that because I know.........  ;) ;)

Well years ago society condoned the taking away of bast$rds and in some cases sent the poor women off to penal colonies (Australia). I am not condoning that or the wretched(and it was really wretched) lives the children had in homes run by nuns.

Return of the valued family unit? Compulsary sterilisation after third child? Just accept that this is how some people will be now we have a civilised society with generous benefits for those that choose that way of life? Maybe it is just a stage in the fall of an empire. Like the Romans went to greatness and then just fell.

Whatever , I blame it all on the parents.

Makes me sick really, £1.6k? With no major bills like rent?  >:(

A cull?  ::)

It frustarted the shit out of me, when you get them moaning that the request for extra benefits was rejected and then others who sit there saying we have no money when next to them is an I-phone, cigerettes, empty lager can and in front of them a 46inch TV....

Although certainly no role model, this woman was one of the better ones in my opinion.

The 16 year old girl (who had her child taken from her by social services) really needs to get her act together. Her boyfriend ( the hoody) and the father of her child was about as much use as a used durex.  :-\

I imagine that most of the people from this estate go about their business in the normal way, the same as you or I. However, the documentary film crew can't resist the temptation of good viewing figures by going for the 'gobby mare' who always wanted to be on television. :-\
