Daily Record Newspaper - Need a Slap I think

[dvbuk55]

I don't know if she is a caring woman or not - but I do think she's right - because I've seen at first hand too, the squalid conditions people live in and for that there is no excuse it is simply laziness, too lazy to clean the house, too lazy to clean themselves, too lazy to clean their children and too lazy to work.

More of how she said it rather than what she said. She comes across as a middle class woman looking down on the non-working classes.

The manner is a little abrasive, but the truth remains. I have heard of upper class, middle class and working class but non-working class? sums up exactly the point she was trying to make. I am not one of those who subscribe to the theory that zero unemployment is achievable, during my lifetime there has always been a cadre of people for whom work is not an option through circumstance but there are also those who make a career out of being unemployed and consider it a legitimate occupation. I also believe that successive Governments have pandered to them and given the borrowing and the likely tax burden of the future then it is time to crack the whip.
