You have also given more than one clue to your identity, which I suggest you delete if you don't want to delete the whole of your OP and other posts.

Sorry but... have you actually had to live on benefits with small children??

Luckily I haven't but my mother did and even in the 'old-days' it was tough and we had to rely on the help of family to get by when bills came in.

Minimum wage jobs which is all thats available to most unskilled workers. legally often do not have the flexibility of hours to accommodate single mothers.

At least this lady is trying to get work.

To be honest if she declared her earning they would affect her benefits and she'd probably not be able to pay her rent and get in a bigger mess.

I pay tax I work bloody hard but I also have some compassion.

You Celia obviously do not.

Try living on a basic benefits amount for a few months with small kids and see how you feel about this then.

I too was a bit taken aback at the brazen nature of the OP. But the idea that most of us *want* to pay tax is equally naive. In my experience, the majority of people who are able to "optimize" their tax bill do so. From cleaners, to IT contractors, to billionaire presidents. The wealthy may be within the law, but morally it's the same.


But the OP - for her own sake - should probably change the wording to something like "informal work".

Until a different system is proposed we all need to contribute if we want to use services - can't have it both ways. Agree that the big companies need to be pursued otherwise the rest of us are disproportionately subsidising them - particularly in view of the Starbucks example this morning.

OP best of luck to you earning a bit of cash- this is a tough, tough city to live in with limited funds, as a single parent etc. You may have paid taxes previously. The time will come when you will be able to contribute more with taxes once again. Until then maybe you are in a position where you need to prioritise supporting your children.


Do delete this post or do more to anonymise it though....to protect yourself

Eerrh excuse me you rotten lot. The OP did not state she was on benefits, it was one of you's assumptions, you don't know her circumstances , and her identity is secure. You don't know if she has another "tax paying" job. Your comments are all based on assumptions, shame on you all !

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch.

    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
