  1. Very bad article as usual from that newspaper why was she allegedly eating dog food what were the circumstances, the only thing we knew was she was not going to work because she reckoned she could get more on benefits which is completely wrong. Just another entitled person who thinks that the state must give than something

  2. Ok, this seems to be out of context but it sounds like she is refusing to get a job because she would stop getting certain benefits. Maybe, Universal Credit would be better for her. Granted, I am on the system but I’m a zero hour contract. I’ve been in the position where i’ve had fuck all available. The worst i’ve eaten is basically, chewing gum and that’s about it to sustain me for the entire day. That was when I had literally fuck all funds left when I was jobless. Oh and a polo. Dog food tends to be pricey. Beans on toast is one of the cheapest meals she could have made. It won’t be Heinz or Branston quality but cheap ones will do the trick.

    ​

    Either she has had shit advice or is trying to play the system.

  3. These things are just headline grabbing bollocks.

    There are way cheaper ways of sustaining yourself before eating dog food.

    That said, she looks well for it. It must have been Pedigree.

  4. Not sure I’d want to work with someone who reaches for the dog food before learning how to operate a bag of flour.

  5. ‘The PM told reporters: ‘I understand how difficult it is for people, I understand the pressures that people are facing on household finances’

    Do you fuck, you fat silver spoon fed cunt.

  6. Fuck off, you can get food dead cheap. Dog food costs more than Morrisons basics ffs. You can get mixed tins of meat and veg for 30p at heron foods. This woman is just after media attention.

  7. You could write a lot of very enlightening, very compassionate articles about people struggling to meet ends meet, cost of living rises, the benefit system etc. Why would you write one which just makes everyone ask “why did she eat dog food?”
