Once I used to tend my elderly neighbours garden, one day this all ended after complaints were received by the benefits fraud department. This resulted in a couple of visits from investigators! who travel from Lincoln, I completed statement to say I was not paid and was assisting a neighbour. As result of this I was told if I continued to assist my neighbour I would need to complete a declaration form each time I did?
So much for Mr Cameron's Big Society?
I stopped helping my neighbour and his landlord dug out his beloved hedge and replaced it with a wooden fence.
Now that is what I call wasting tax payers money.
I decided recently to rent a room so I could afford to upgrade from Tesco value pasta and enjoy a can of Heinz Broccoli and Stilton Soup.
I filled out all the correct forms and one month on and no surprise I have received a letter from the benefits department in Birmingham questioning my relationship with my female lodger, I await the visit from them.
Investigators will surely want to check her knickers and my Aussiebum's are not in the wrong drawers.
I carefully completed another form and answered the question what is your relationship with the person who may be living with you? "Fag Hag"
I know they have to investigate these complaints. I wonder why the complainants who clearly know I am gay bother wasting tax payers money.
I once had a gay lodger and this was not questioned in the same personal manner.
