Just another way of generating cash out of the poor.

This will be a complete nightmare if true – and have you noticed how little Tories want to talk about nanny states any more? – but do consider the source: it’s a long time since the Daily Express has warranted the description “newspaper”.

Jeff3, yes it has been tried before, this is just a re-working of a previously tried and failed tory “policy.”
The main difference is the amount of cash “wasted on troubled families” has increased to a huge amount in the latest article… 30 billion… seriously where do they get these figures from, it sure isn’t from provable data sets.
The last time “intensive help” was tried (2011-2012, I think, maybe 2012-2013) it only “helped” a small percentage and the rest of the money was used to shore up the profits of the “wonkprogram providers.” I can’t remember the exact amounts but believe the help was about 8-20% effective…. translation, a huge fail.
So this is just more good money after bad… but hey “program providers” are going to coin it in again, and the results of all this additional money will not be known till after the election… but then that was the point all along… if it fails and the Condems are in again next year it will be quietly forgotten, if Labour get in next year and it fails it will be “Labours fault” as the stats will be “on their watch,” much like how the Condems have been in for nearly 5 years but everything is still “labours fault” sidestepping the fact the Condems have done fuck all that has worked since getting in.

Adding up all the costs in setting up and administering these “teams” that will “help” (yeah?) “problem families”, where do they get the figure of £30bn savings from??? Loony.

I think this is another load of BS coming from cameron, the thing is he has told so many lies that I personally can’t trust one single word that comes from his mouth, plus there are many many millions of people who think just the same as myself.
For me, although I hate the nasty party with a passion, David cameron has with his cronies destroyed any trust in the word of any Tory politician, I really think that they have destroyed any chance of ever getting into office again ever, between the nasty party and the libdems, there is nothing they can offer to this once great island of ours, they have taken the trust and made us the laughing stock of the world, the way the sick and disabled are treated is nothing short of corporate manslaughter and the modern day killers of family life.
There is nothing else left of our people because you destroyed our country.

Problem families are not the source of the cost of welfare, as the unemployed are only
3 per cent of benefits bill. Criminals do not starve.
The working poor and poor pensioners are 97 per cent of benefit, that includes all the sanctioned disabled and chronically sick, in or out of work, and even above age 60 who are pensioners short of a pension since 2013 – women born from 1953 and men born from 1951 – whilst MPs kept the pension payout since 2012.
In amongst the disabled / chronic sick are pensioners losing benefit who also lose
state pension for life – nil food money forever.
No state pension for life for
housewives, divorcees, widows, and
poorest men and women

Labour could win big in 2015, by adding to Labour’s 2015 manifesto pledge, the one
offered by The Greens’ 2015 manifesto pledge of:
– universal non-means tested Citizen Income, non-withdrawable, in or out of work.
And adding:
– state pension payout to women at 60 in 2015 (back-dated to loss begun in 2013)
– equalise state pension payout at 60 for men in 2015.
Labour might abandon going against Scottish independence, that offers the Scots forever escaping Tory rule from London (as Tories never win to run Scotland’s parliament).
Labour bring down to England or Wales now, the Scottish Labour MPs and add those further seats in 2015 with Labour’s landslide victory with the above added manifesto pledges.
Gaining the 60 per cent of 18-30 who did not vote in 2010, and a good portion of the 15 million who did not vote at all (half as much as ALL voters who voted for ALL parties in 2010).
Anybody?
