And you are UPPERclass are you westendlass?
Its goes on how people are brought up, these people are like that because of their parents, its people like you that judge people who really pi$$ me off, looking down your nose at everyone, DISGUSTING !!!
And as for calling it SCUMthorpe, this is happening all over the country, not just over there
Shame on you
But then again, you wouldn't know about that, ignorance is bliss and all that

people would have been in work if it wasnt the tories past and present policies of creating unemployment to keep inflation down.
Have to disagree cmon, no matter who`s in government, some people just don`t want to work.
What a strange reply. I wasn't 'looking down my nose at anyone. Just commenting on some crap prime time tv. Just because people have no money doesn't mean they have to act like irresponsible nobheads. If that were the case I'd be screeching up and down the street on a motorbike with no helmet myself.
there are millions of people who did work who wanted to work and got stuck in a rut. there are people who you wouldnt want in your workplace 
Something's going to give in the future, can't see how people can go on living like this and bringing children up who have never seen their parents work.
I feel sad for some of them but others don't want to help themselves, how can a modern society like ours have such diverse wealth and poverty within every town and city in the country.

There are plenty of people who want to work, but there are also too many who wouldn`t know a days work if it kicked them in the ass.there are millions of people who did work who wanted to work and got stuck in a rut. there are people who you wouldnt want in your workplace
yet their the ones that are still getting tehir benefits and not been labled scum
meanwhile cancer patients diagnosed as terminal are been forced to stack shelves at tesco
its a poor do when someone whos made a carreer out of been on jobseekers is able to look down their nose at a disabled or terminally ill person because government has put the even less fortunate as the economys number 1 enemy
Watched the first 5 minutes then turned off, it was made to get a reaction, looks like it got the one they wanted.
Wouldn't have done if it just showed someone doing shopping once a fortnight at ASDA stocking up from the oops isle then hibernating until next pay day.

I am sure there is an element of truth in it but not a lot.
I agree the reporters/researchers/whatever they are have made the program to make the area look as worse as it possibly could.
There is work if you want it. I'm retired 66 and I could get a job tomorrow. Might not be high pay but enough to live on & keep me off the streets. Some make more on benefits & it's not right.
They did the same when they made the documentaries about Shadsworth and that place in Manchester Neil, they would do exactly the same if they where to do it in Accy, Ossy, Church, Huncoat and Clayton, narrow minded people like the OP refuse to see/believe what's on their doorstep
No It's not right, nor is it right that having had a comfortable and productive life you criticize all that are now in the position of unemployment.
Cue the exasperated re-buffel about how you had a hard life.
Yes, you may have done, but these people you call are also suffering.
