Pointless dickwaving by Camoron.

I'm fairly sure it's impossible not to get welfare in the UK. Even if you don't qualify for a specific benefit you are entitled to what is called Income Support if you have no money coming in and no savings. Quite right too. I don't see how throwing families into the streets - in what is the 5th richest country in the world - achieves anything.

And while I'm sure it makes reactionary nutjobs feel warm inside to hear about 'rioters' being evicted, the slightly less bad ass small print is they will simply have to be rehoused elsewhere. So they become someone else's problem, perhaps in an otherwise nice area, and will attract all their old criminal friends over.

In fact it's long been the fully retarded policy in the UK of dealing with troublemaking scum to remove them from their slums and plant them into otherwise nice areas.

Perhaps the theory/delusion is that the pleasant environment will rub off on them and make them decent, functioning members of society. Of course it doesn't take Nostra-fucking-damus to predict what really happens, but if it doesn't affect politicians' lives, they don't give a fuck.
