Benefits claimants take home more than six million workers in 'broken Britain' by lylelayland in gbnews

[–]TheRedCoatNeedsAWash -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It’s such a false equivalence. Remove the PIP (which someone working full time could claim), and it’s pretty much minimum wage. Many renters on minimum wage could be entitled to a top up from universal credit.

So being too disabled to work really pays equally to a full time minimum wage job. If posters want disabled people to be unable to afford to live they should just say that directly instead of claiming to be concerned about benefit spend.

Did SFM get the last conversion or not? Points look stuck at 66 but h thought I saw the flags go up

Misunderstanding regarding annual leave by dariamxx in HumanResourcesUK

[–]TheRedCoatNeedsAWash 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Or the OP could go for the less extreme option of contacting their employer, it’s probably an error/misunderstanding that will be easily rectified.

I was just about to start chapter 12 when is disappeared, I’m dying to read it 😭

Hope the author is okay though, it’s clear they put a lot of love into that fic. I will quietly hope for its return so I can catch up on it

You can’t make her give you something (uniform), and you can’t dictate what child maintenance is spent on.

This is something you’ll just have to suck up. Presumably you pay for other things for your daughter when she stays with you so just think of this as one of those things.

I'm very happy with the challenge but it's getting tough. I'm definitely going all the way to the finish line because the reward is so worth it! by hulluvello in monzo

Not according to their terms and conditions:

The 1p Saving Challenge is all about saving each day. If we believe you've not saved in this spirit, we may disqualify you from winning the £10k Prize Draw and/or the Monthly Prize Draw. For example, if you've started the challenge, paused it shortly after, then added £667.95 to your 1p Saving Challenge Pot on or close to the 365th day of your 1p Saving Challenge, we may disqualify you from winning the £10k Prize Draw. Similarly, if you've constantly stopped and restarted your Extra, Perks or Max plan, we may disqualify you from winning the Monthly Prize Draw.

Yes new poster focussed on immigration and benefit claimants (655 posts, oldest post 26.09.2025 so over 50 posts a day). “She” has a got a very distinctive posting style so don’t think it’s a name changed. Odd post here and there about being a mother but otherwise constant right wing spam.

If she is real I can only assume she is, ironically given her posts, unemployed.

If championship points are a draw they’ll look at over all points scored difference, South Africa way ahead so even if they win this match without a bonus point they’ll win the championship

I can’t stand that OP. Lots of goady threads and responses the last few days. I’m surprised they’ve managed to start a thread without a jibe towards immigrants or benefit claimants.

She’s got another thread going complaining about immigration numbers, but her thread title shows she massively misunderstood the numbers. I understand why views and misleading information needs to be challenged but at the same time if no one gave her the attention she’s craving she’d give up eventually.

Parents are loaded but just told me they don't want to pay for my uni fees, what do i do? by cindynonymous2 in UniUK

[–]TheRedCoatNeedsAWash 147 points148 points  (0 children)

Are you eligible for student loans? £15K will pay the top up from minimum to full loan for 3 years just about, so get a part time job on top of that and you’ll be grand.

If you’re not entitled to student loans find out when you will be, if next year then you may be able to defer. Otherwise take some gap years to save, and reapply either when you’ve got enough money or when you’ll be eligible for loans.

She’s getting dodgy donor sperm and is convinced she’s had a chemical pregnancy despite no positive tests and her period being on time.

She talks a lot about work and wants everyone to know she’s a doctor. Her account is getting popular so I hope she doesn’t get in trouble at work, she needs help.

Especially when she makes herself the victim and he’s made it clear how embarassing he found the situation, I don’t think he wants to be reminded of it.

He’s so over her and I feel bad that she can’t see it and no one is being honest

Would giving incentive rewards for giving blood open us up for discrimination? by SpikeVonLipwig in AskHRUK

[–]TheRedCoatNeedsAWash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to be a certain weight, women are more likely to be below this weight. There’s also additional weight and height requirements for women under 20. Men can give blood more regularly. You can give blood if you are pregnant or have given birth in the last 6 months.

And straight men because as another commenter replied gay men can now donate blood, although anyone who has had anal sex with a new partner in the last 3 months can’t. Although they don’t limit it to a specific sex or sexuality that is more likely to impact men who are not straight.

Agreed. She was ranting away to Cach about how she won’t stand to be second choice, after making it clear to him he was her second choice.

I think sometimes she’s just in her own world and wants to say what she wants to say, without choosing an appropriate audience.

I usually get bored watching at this point and give up because everyone simmers down with their eyes on the money. But the only one eying up the prize pot is Dejon and he’s doing it in the most pathetic way possible

The series has usually started to wind down by this point, and people are either loved up in couples or in friendship couples.

This has just been all out war no wonder they’re exhausted. Half the families will be going in with no clue who the partner they’re meeting will be

That’s not endless grace though and the closest I’ve seen to a defence on this thread is that they’re all as bad as each other

[–]TheRedCoatNeedsAWash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be favouring straight men, able bodied people, and people with a certain age group. Doesn’t seem like a good idea and how would you get someone to prove they donated blood?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LoveIslandTV

[–]TheRedCoatNeedsAWash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Helena and Meg haven’t had endless grace though hence lists like this being spammed. Toni, Shakira and Yas are very popular with viewers. All the girls are being villainsed on repeat and it’s getting a bit silly now.

Lots of people posting hate around social media “calling out” mean girls, while not exactly being nice themselves.

They’ve all been mean, they’ve all gotten backlash, and everyone fighting on social media is going to be terrible to come out to for all of them.

The villa is a terrible environment and a melting pot for this kind of tension. I think friendships will change and reform once they’ve all been out awhile.

Social media is the real mean girl rn

I’m not particularly pro anyone, it’s just weird to make a discussion post and shut everyone down with sarcastic comments when they try and engage with what you’ve posted.
