Have Your Say: What would you do?

They already provide the last of those, F, and I strongly suspect that those who routinely work in a business where they already risk death on a daily basis would be unduly concerned about the first two :-))
Yesss...I wasn't thinking alcohol when I created the topic, but you're right; it's probably the No. 1 cause of violence and A & E admissions in the UK .
Ian:
The Dowler family has been questioning if the 'price was too high' to bring Bellfield to Justice. But was it?

I think the majority of people would express the same sentiments as Fester, but is it likely to happen NO because of the old British tradition of fair play!
In the meantime people are abusing the benefits system and it wants urgent reforming. Extra benefits given to alcoholics for example, what does that encourage?
Also the multiple fraudulent claims made, perhaps if each claimant was fingerprinted it would prevent the crooks from making multiple claims.
I can't see any objection to it apart from the do gooders brigade and perhaps then the money saved from the crooks could be used to increase the benefits to the genuine and deserving cases.
Fester:
The Thread is called 'What would you do' ... here's an idea.
Install a licensed bar in the Benefits office. A one stop shop perhaps?
In this way, the claimants will get their benefit, and spend it all in the one place.
Thus keeping them out of my way, and getting the money back off them and back into the system.
Simple!
DaveR:
As Hugo pointed out on the other thread, the local Police should adopt a policy of taking alcohol from anyone found drinking on the street and pour it down the drain. Aren't most of the central Llandudno streets supposed to be alcohol free zones anyway?
