The government wasted £15 billion on substandard PPE £700 million on the Rwanda policy and 90% of this £2 Billion figure is down to DWP errors and a broken system not fraud. The former head of the DWP had millions hidden offshore.
A lot more money is wasted in the UK while being shown less attention. We have a strange obsession with benefit fraud, while being lenient on tax fraud, handouts to companies, corruption etc etc.
£35 billion goes out in tax evasion, avoidance and errors but lets focus on the £2 billion taken by the poor🙄. They've obviously missec the fact that the show is in the morning so their viewers clearly aren't at work.
This value is so small when put against the amount of funds that big corps and very wealthy individuals are hiding from the tax man. Some guy on a council estate claiming £10 is much less inportant to me than some billionaire hiding his assets oversea, cand stealing tax money from the tax man of a million or two.
The title of the video says "More people are willing to steal", well, Richard didn't mind stealing bottles of champagne, which workers at the supermarket said was a regular thing until he was confronted. So Richard has been ahead on this curve.
£770 million wasted on Rwanda, £36 Billion wasted on a useless test and track app, endless money sent to Ukraine. Government MP expense swindling. Morally bankrupt government.
@@isabellamills1612 they are poor because rich stole their fare share of wealth. Every one is equal in this world and has right to equal share of wealth. Rich do not earn wealth by hard work. If that was true all bin collectors and swipers would have been rich.
Always focusing on benefit fraud welfare what about uk millionaires and billionaires also big corporation businesses amazon etc not paying there fair share of taxes
How's it 'fraud' when the UK Ltd itself is defrauding the public? The 'Government's' money comes entirely from taxpayers against their consent. It has no moral authority to regard this an affront.
Since we work in a place where the government can get away with crimes and pay their way out, why should the poorest in society have integrity? Businesses put in little money and expect maximum effort. Nothing pays anymore in a cost of living crisis. Take what you can and give nothing back.
Anyone who’s been to the UK knows that folks there have a funny relationship with morality. Doing the right thing only when someone is watching is quite popular in Britain. Doing the right thing when no one is watching will get you classified as a “mug”.
I only claimed for things I needed after contracting flesh-eating disease. I was rejected, no one told me you always get rejected and have to appeal. so I didn't. You don't know anything. -- only reason I got anything (eventually) was that I sent a picture of a giant hole in my hip after 7 debridement surgeries to a caseworker at the Local DWP. when I tried to get help for the severe depression I suffered after being released from the hospital, and being homeless for a year, I was treated like a scammer. Never appealed that and never got it., or any help at all. I had to learn to walk again entirely by myself. It took me four years,.
That's awful. But unfortunately unsurprising! The claims process for any kind of benefits or support is a massive barrier for the majority of people. Reams upon reams of pages and one wrong tick in the wrong box and denied. The system is supposed to be one of support but it seems it's built to fail, it's one of cruelty instead. Hope you are recovering as well as can be, despite the awful 'safety net' failing you so badly.
Unfortunately I agree with this, working doesn't feel beneficial as much as it used to, in work i'm poorer than people on benefits but hey, doesn't seem important to governments these days
What can people do ?? Your income from work or benefit does not cover the cost of bills or food. I work for nhs full time i am on withdraw all month we have not even being able to take our children anywhere further than local parks since 18 months! Sorry but people are struggling and breaking point
The young mothers claiming to be living alone when in reality they have a partner living with them is rife around where I live I personally know of 2 one actually has had a new boiler and loft insulated because she’s claiming UC for two kids when o eon the fathers lives there but his address is his mothers
If I could change welfare,Would scrap every thing replace it with one Benefit for what every one can be entitled too,Those who in work,Get what they given on low wages,Those who to ill and cant work be on the same Benefit,Those who got kids have increae in the Benefit,Every thing in one,Also save tax payers a lot of money,Also be glad when migrant dole office comes to a complete end
I'm sick and tired of this cost of living crisis being played out time and time again. Restaurants are full, flights to sunnier climes for holidays, pubs at the weekend, football stadiums are full throughout the season, so where's the crsis there. The public are out spending not sitting at home. Make it make sense

How much of this figure also includes the furlough scheme abuse that the then government turned a blind eye to
Yep just propaganda to avoid attention being paid to the rich and their tax avoidance.
A lot more money is wasted in the UK while being shown less attention. We have a strange obsession with benefit fraud, while being lenient on tax fraud, handouts to companies, corruption etc etc.
Well said! 👏
Both need attention and should be minimised. This country wastes so much its maddening

So you shouldn’t bother about it
@@jamesdiamond820 These things are dealt with. My issue is more if it should be a focus of daytime tv.

HOLD ON HE GAVE 3 BILLION AWAY YESTERDAY TO UKRAINE
The biggest fraud of all in my opinion
The title of the video says "More people are willing to steal", well, Richard didn't mind stealing bottles of champagne, which workers at the supermarket said was a regular thing until he was confronted. So Richard has been ahead on this curve.
And he got off with it too

Live or die. That's the situation most Brits face these days.
Billions go to asylum seekers. While some British people are living on the streets. Park benches.
So funny let's ignore the huge amounts the government squandered
It is because that they see rich are constantly scamming the system and blaming the poor.
The rich pay for the poor to live, without the rich the poor wouldn’t survive (council houses, prescriptions etc etc)

How many are stealing bottles of wine?
Wine?? Richard wouldn't steal just wine, only champagne for Madeley.
And very expensive whiskey 😅
Now do how much tax avoidance costs us
Tax avoidance is perfectly legal.
@@kylestanley1160just because its legal doesnt mean its morally correct.
WHENEVER YOU HEAR OR READ ANYTHING ABOUT BENEFITS JUST CRANGE THOUGHTS TO ALL THE WEALTH IN THE WORLD 🌎 BEING SHARED OUT.

michelle mone anybody?!
What about tax avoidance. Are you surprised after the last fourteen years.
How much tax avoidance is there? A lot more than 2 billion I'll bet.
I hundred billion a year by super rich and government do nothing to stop it. They and there mates are all at it.
Since we work in a place where the government can get away with crimes and pay their way out, why should the poorest in society have integrity? Businesses put in little money and expect maximum effort. Nothing pays anymore in a cost of living crisis. Take what you can and give nothing back.
Tax fraud is 7 billion but comitted by a different sector of society so its ok.
One rule for the rich where they can get away with it, and another one for the poor, where they get punished.😅
What about tax fraud.
All started with the big expenses scandal

Unless people are led by example then those making the noise need to shut up!
Richard is one of them..the shoplifter

@@McSab I had something to hate. Kept me going. The Tories gave me that at least.
@mootedtols4865 oh yeah, they were the gift of hatred that kept on giving!
@@McSab It was a somewhat flippant remark, but true nonetheless. I was not idle during this time. I learned a great deal.
UK wasted £450bn on Covid 19.
The demographics of the uk have changed dramatically, yet no mention of this !!
Investigate government tenders and tax dodging
I dont blame anyone for being on benefits certainly no incentive to work anymore
Yeah... Why work to be poorer and have to pay tax which will pay for 4 star hotels of illegal criminals eh...
Unfortunately I agree with this, working doesn't feel beneficial as much as it used to, in work i'm poorer than people on benefits but hey, doesn't seem important to governments these days
A drop in the ocean compared to tax evasion
"10 years ago that would finish off any politician..." Bill Clinton "hold my glass"
Each time you create a credit, you simultaneously create a debt, cancelling each other out.
In absolute terms, money doesn't exist.
Rich people have been lying for decades.
Case of survival.
This is a typical Madeley the 2billion is nothing compared to what the rich get away with its always the same let’s go after the poorest in society.
More likely people having public positions, access. Use opportunity to committing fraud.
But the rich mp's have off shore bank accounts dodging tax that's just as bad.
How do you even work this out and still have "fraud" taking place? 🤷🏻♂️ I'm not taking this at face value..
Whys Richard Madeley got trumps hair?
But didn’t he steal from supermarkets
Shoplifting terrible crime🤔

Yes I live next door to this same thing!
Anecdotal evidence is not evidence. Compare that with the billions in tax avoidance/ tax evasion from billionaires. Pales in comparison!

Yeah we don't care. Not going to work thus topic isn't. We care about all the wealth being shard out.
I wonder why what as changed in the last few years taqqya .
Scrap the benefit system.
To what end ?
