    Tragic story Mr Colliers
    I too was made redundant 7 years ago and like your good self was refused any help as my redundancy took me over this 7k threshold. FFS for 38 years pevious I had paid into the system and like yourself was **** on when I asked for any help.
    I got the statutary 6 months unemployment benefit then basically told to fk off.
    Well actually they didna get the pleasure as I knew exactly what they were going to tell me at my last interview and I got in first by telling them to stick their sevices up their arses. Fortunately my pension allowed me to be in a position to do this but the demeaning of me by those on the other side of the interview table totally disgusted me.
    I witnessed so much hurt and grief within that building it actually broke my heart to see people who had lost everything and still they were treated as dirt.
    Fkn Heartless Tory ********.

    There is no balanced view on his original post, its a national disgrace that needs sorting any right minded person can see that.
    The Momentum thing came because, their members are popping up in various places and his posts are always far left wing and he posts a large amount of political stuff on what is essentially a football forum.
    Trying to debate political on here is a a total wast of type, based on you if you are not 100% Labour you are a Tory....go figure.

    Sorry to hear that, and thats patently wrong, you need to appeal and would surely win.
    I have lost three jobs through no fault of my own, twice under the Tories and once under Labour.
    We have a disabled son, with mental and mobility problems we have had a constant battle all his life for his with the powers that be, and thats whoever has been in power, .
    Again, I just take every topic as I see it, not as a Labour or a Tory thing.

    We have appealed owd love, well my daughter as and what did she get NOWT
    I doubt you lost a job directly caused by Labours policies.If you did please let me know how.
    And I doubt very much you have had a constant battle with the powers that be for your disabled son when labour was in power as I know 1st hand with my grandson its only since this Tory government.took power troubles started, we talk to other family's with similar children and everyone are saying the same as me.

    Started writing an answer to that but then thought what's the point, you'll only call me a fking liar again.Thats the last time for sure I am ever joining anything remotely political on here,if the fking dog died some folk would just blame it on the Tory party.

    So all our problems ARE down to tory policy.

    But I knew that. Fk the tory basturds. Only out for themselves. And Labour not much better. No opposition there..OK I'm SNP and see a better free and equal society under their policies and guidance. Just got to hope another Independence referendum delivers a better result.

    There's a reight set of shitpots on here. It will be poetic justice when they choke on their own vommit and wallow in their own faeces whilst the people and lack of humanity they laud looks on laughing. Disgrace to the human race.

    Hmm. Maybe I just said that but the Tories in power ATM are more to blame.
    I realise you in England have only the choice of 2. But we in Scotland have a very creditable choice in the SNP to look after our well being. And I get it that you will not agree with this but this is fact.
