Living on £50 a week

Diary of an unemployed teen

Suada Hamidi is 19 years old and unemployed. She has to survive on the lowest rate of Jobseeker's Allowance of £50.95 per week. Click to watch a video diary charting her struggle to make ends meet and find a job.

The above is to be shown on the BBC at some point.

I worked and paid into the system for over 34 years.

I was made redundant thru no fault of my own.

She getting 50 quid a week...They wont even give me 50 pence

My heart bleeds for her...AS IF..!!

PLEASE...BBC...Don't rub it in...your recruiting for the BNP.

Alun Johnson says an apology from Gordon Brown is not needed..

Is this man really in his right mind..?

An apology IS needed.

Not only for the integrity of the Labour party But, also for the integrity of Gordon Brown.

The people also NEED to hear an apology from this loser.

Is it possible that for once in his life, He will have the courage to to say 'Sorry'.??

Labour party see BNP as a 'threat'.

Maybe if Labour started listening to the people, they would be a lot more respected..??

Has anyone who owns one of these vehicles had problems with the front brakes.?

On my car, they were replaced at 6,000 miles and then again at 12,000 miles.

When I say replaced, I mean discs and pads.

Is now the time for a revolution..?

What is there left for the people to lose..?

We have lost our jobs..our homes..

Do we really need to hear more lies to keep THEM comfotable..?

It is up to you...what do you want to do..?

To me ..it gets funnier and funnier..

I still not stopped laughing at last mondays budget...hahahaha

Gees..this is so trivial compared to Labours act of treason against the people with regards to the EU constitution/ treaty of Lisbon...lolol

I have been scouring the major supermarkets and smaller retailers for Ichester Cheese, I have even been to Ilchester village store and to the surrounding area.

All in vain.

I not sure now that Ilchester cheese is even sold in the UK.

The only place I have actually bought a block of this cheese is in a Miejers Store, Michigan, USA.

Then I brought it back to the UK to give to a relative who lives within half a mile of the Ilchester cheese factory.

The Last Night of The Proms.

Would you agree it is one of the finest musical events in the world today.?

Did anyone notice the absence of the flag of the European Union this year.?

Last year, one brave soul was waving it around, but this year, I never saw one.

Will the 'tax 'em to death' stategy to prevent climate change save us from extinction..?

The plan, which builds on Johnson's predecessor Ken Livingstone's aim to cut London's carbon emissions by 60 percent by 2025, is to help the city prevent climate change, prepare for its consequences and recover from its effects

If 'they' are going to spend billions of taxpayers money on preventing the climate change.

Why would 'they' need to 'prepare for its consequences' and 'recover from its effects'.??

Sounds to me like the billions will be wasted as it going to happen anyway.

Does anybody else consider the statement ' Britain invites the world to London' to be somewhat redundant, as most of the world is already here. ?

When I first read it, I thought it was another of Nu Labours immigration non policies.

I have recently been informed that my council tax band has been wrong since 1st April 2005.

I have been paying band 'C' when I should have been paying band 'B'.

Will I get a rebate, if so, what form will this take.

Will it be in the form of lower bills for a while or a cheque or some other means of recompense ?

How would you interpret this song.

I have my own views, I wondering how many more ways it can be interpreted.

I have a suzuki 1.5 GTX

Today was the first service, 6,100 miles on the clock from new.

Should this car have had the discs and brake pads replaced already..?

It only one year old.

It was done under warranty though.

Prime Minister Gordon Brown said on Saturday Zimbabwe's presidential election was a "new low" -- but predicted democracy will come to the southern African country.

If this a 'New Low', what happened to the UK peoples referendum regarding the Treaty of Lisbon..?

Can Gordon Brown predict democracy will come to the UK..?

This is a story of a UFO sighting over Cardiff.

The Sun version....The Newspaper for the Hard of Thinking.

After the French and Dutch voted 'NO' to the EU constitution in 2005, Tony Blair would not give the Brits a chance to vote 'NO' on the grounds that the constitution was dead and buried and there was no need for a referendum in the UK.

Now 2008, The wonderful Irish people have spoken and voted 'NO' to the Treaty of Lisbon.

Gordon Brown insists that ratification will still go ahead.

Why would he need to do this?

Is the treaty not already dead and buried..??

Why in 2005 there was no need for the UK to have the promised referendum. , while there is still a need for ratification in 2008..??
