Institutional Thievery

I am sick of seeing comments about benefit fraudsters whenever a story is posted about someone dying from sanctions.

0.7% of the welfare budget is fraudulently claimed according to the government’s own figures (the budget was £264 billion year ending 2017; 34% of all government spending and including pensions of £111 billion).

Tax avoidance according to the Tories £35 billion a year, but it is believed to be nearer £60 billion a year.

People who commit benefit fraud are named, shamed and sometimes sent to prison. Wealthy tax dodgers are given anonymity and made to pay a small percentage of their outstanding tax.

It was estimated last year that 70,000 sick and disabled people will be paid £1BILLION of benefits they were denied after a major government mistake.

Just who is robbing this country?
