A Hagfish a Day Keeps the Bailiffs Away

We have all be told that we should grow our own fruit and vegetables to save money, but now a new Government scheme will force poor families to make their own clothes.



Following his infamous claim to be able to live on £53 a week, which has resulted in a 324,000 online petition to have him 'put his money where his mouth is' -Ian Duncan Smith, the most hated man in the UK, has unveiled his latest plan to make sure work pays.

From 1st April 2014 every person claiming working age benefits will be supplied with a Hagfish, in order for them to weave their own clothes from the Hagfish's slime, allowing him to reduce claimants benefits by a further £20 a week.

Said IBS, "This scheme will give the unemployed something productive to do whilst they are lazing around their subsidised housing and drinking their cheap cider. For far too long we have provided money in order for these scroungers to go to posh shops to buy expensive clothes. 'No more' I say, from now on they will get a Hagfish in order to make their own clothese. This will allow me to cut their benefits further and blame them for not doing enough to help themselves because they cannot afford clothing and must walk around naked."

So, has Ian Duncan Smith lost the plot, or has he come up with a devilish scheme to bring back cottage industries?

    This article is tot bollocks. I have never said they will be given free, you will have to buy them -you lazy bunch of cider swigging scroungers like the rest of the hard working British public who will shortly also not be able to afford clothes, even from Primark.

  2. Typical leftie policy, when things turn sour -the answer is always immigration.

  3. Oh, you said £54. I thought you said $54k!

    Don't worry, when all you plebs can no longer afford your housing, I'll put you all on a slave ship and evacuate you to a work house and we won't have to look and your vulgar little faces again!

    Keep Britain Toffy!
