[The Invisible Man]

[Uncle Urchin]

it does pi55 me of tho....we are a nation of freebie hunters....all these lazy fckers shagging their brains out on speed and cheap cider and the taxpayer ends up with the bill...

 

I don't mind paying if I've shagged 'em but thats as far as it goes...

I think this is the long and the short of it, I really don't understand what all the fuss is about

Except the data was copied 3 times- and all three copies were lost (AFAIK) - if it is in the wrong hands it can be used to affect millions of people at any stage in the future.

 

Whilst the data itself may not be able to be used too much - it can be used in conjunction with other data.

The Government have announced, to get round the loss of the data, and to stop false benefit claims......"All Claimants for Child Benefit, must submit DNA from both parents, and the children being claimed for, before Benefits will be handed over!

 

Going to be thousands of disappointed (NON)Fathers after this!
