Moving income support to fortnightly is like anyone to choose to pay their direct debits a further month in arrears to allow them to pocket the difference. It is not fair to put the bill on those who were not even in the bankers’ casinos to subsidise the cost of recession. Few on IS even put someone else’s money into accommodation to distort the housing market. It is always better to smooth flows of funds. In this we move to abolish bank holidays and weekends for 24x7x365.25 computer uptime to the 9th 9. A regressive move to fortnightly benefit payments is potentially another 10p tax issue?
“I think benefits should be paid a week in arrears, for this list of quite ridiculous reasons.”
“Well, I’ll be honest with you, there’s no logical reason to do s–”
“Also we should abolish bank holidays and weekends.”
“Right. Right. Okay. Right. That’s… that’s actually pretty stupid, isn’t it? And it doesn’t have anything to do with your initial request.”
“We can leave the computers switched on all the time!”
“…I’m… I’m sure we can. Er. Could… could you leave now? Please? You’re unsettling the more nervous Ministers.”
