Council CuntsStallion Explosion writes "I was in a record shop in Melbourne, flicking through the vinyl, when I found a record entitled 'Hackney Council Are A Bunch Of Cunts'"
We agree.
Have you been trapped in the relentless petty minded bureaucracy of your local council?
Why does it require 3 forms of ID to get a parking permit when the car in question is busy receiving a parking ticket right outside the parking office?
Or do you work for Hackney Council?

RE: Child Tax CreditI actually get..wait for it... £4 child tax credit a month.
Why? Because when we applied for it, I'd been out of work for 6 months or so the previous year (what can I say? I was picky about what I wanted to do for a job, I really didn't want to go work at tesco's or something crud like that in the meantime) anyway..
Due to this when we applied, despite me sending in various wage slips from the job I had (and still have now actually) they still worked out what we should be paid from the previous year.
So we got a nice lump sum of about £4000 (close to it but not the exact amount and I am not gonna dig out the paperwork to check!) and the maximum amount of tax credits per week for the year.
next year they went 'Oh we've overpaid you by about £2000'
SO they deduct it from what I would get...so I get £4 a month or so haha
-edit, I gotta say, I am really liking this QOTW it makes for good reading :)
--doubleedit and as My relationship is on very rocky ground, and a split is very much on the cards, I dread to think what will happen then..will they want the rest of the £2000 back right away? after all with the small amount they take only about £150 of it so far has been paid off......
