Why? Sensationalist divisive unrepresentative unthinking rubbish. I hope I did not dilute my _iew of this sort of television. Have you any idea of the trouble this stirred up in Southampton? One poor (hard working) fellow had to be put up in a hotel for months to protect him.

Most definitely this, people are letting this rubbish tell them how to think and the results are proven disgraceful

No, these shows are there to cause controversy, stir up resentment & prey on the unfortunates who can't see a better future for themselves. They're deluded to think being a reality star for a brief moment in time will somehow give them fulfillment they lack in real life. As someone who worked in television & still has friends in the industry I'm well aware that producers of these shows manipulate situations & if _iewers somehow think they are representative of "reality" then clearly they're as deluded as those participating.

If you want reality go help at a food bank, talk to a homeless person, volunteer at a shelter or help a charity - but for goodness sake switch off this fodder for the folk who want to be brain dead for an hour in the name of entertainment.

Ignoring all this stuff won't make it go away or stop the nutters believing it.

In order to challenge this, you must first know your enemy. How they think (if indeed they do) and why they do it.

Shags, stupidly, I watched a similar program the other night & the majority of the above posts are 100% correct.

All you ever hear is the people answering a question but never hear what the actual question was, - or any answers that don't suit the programs agenda, I'd guess. It's so thinly disguised, I'm surprised that people cant see through it all!

I do not like IDS or The Fail but that is a conspiracy theory too far. Its a bloody television company jumping on the "Shaft the scroungers" bandwagon to make some money. Sheesh. Not every one in power is in cahoots with Area 51.

. The poor are fairly well treated in the UK. Any money that they receive is from hard working tax payers . Society does not owe anyone a living . Everything that you.have in life has to be earned .

What about the people who aren't given opportunities to earn, what about severely disabled people who can't work, and their family carers who can't work, a very cold and discompassionate statement.

Too fat to work is the programme title and we are watching it now .

I never thought I would ever agree with Pat , but I'm gonna have to this time .

Sorry all you haters , but this is why we as a nation voted the Tories in this time .

What a fucking joke - our hard earned money going to these people so they can continue their gluttony or get gastric bypasses .

It's so imbalanced & in the particular similar program I watched they were targeting immigrants where English was their second language, - even easier to dupe!!

They more than likely have no idea about how the program will be titled, - they may even believe that it's a program about the celebration of immigration!!
