I MUST say I agree with what "Nuff Respect" had to say (Your Letters, June 26)).
There are lots of jobs that these scroungers could do, but these days they would rather draw benefit than get out of bed early and work for it.
They should be given four weeks to start work and if they don't they should be turned away when they ask for their money. Why should the poor tax payer have to keep them?
I am not a taxpayer. I am a pensioner but I do feel sorry for the people who have to pay for others who won't work. These handouts should stop.
