Desperate Jobseeker Sets Himself Alight Outside Jobcentre in England

A DESPERATE job seeker set himself alight outside a Birmingham Jobcentre in an alleged row over his benefit payments.

Horrified eyewitnesses saw the man douse himself in flammable liquid after tying himself to railings at the Jobcentre Plus in Harborne Lane, Selly Oak, at around 9.20am.

Cops rushed to the aid of the 48-year-old man and sprayed him with fire extinguishers after he suffered burns to his lower legs.

The building remained closed throughout the day and claimants were told that payments would be made directly to banks. One eyewitness, who did not want to be named, said: “The guy came into the Jobcentre with petrol and made threats, so they evacuated the whole building.

I think it was something to do with a payment he had not received.

“He tied himself to the railings and tore open the bottom of his trousers. You could smell the fumes from the liquid he used, but the police arrived by the time he had set himself alight and they managed to put him out quite quickly.

“He would have to have been very desperate to have done something like that.

“It’s shocking that somebody could have been driven to those depths.”

A spokeswoman for West Midlands Police said: “Officers were called at around 9.18am to reports that a man had tied himself to railings and was threatening to set himself on fire.

“The man doused himself in liquid and set himself alight.

My cousin is one of them. Been in there once while she was screaming and whining for her money, which had been stopped. Saying she knows her rights etc. Hid away as didn't want her speak to me and people seeing i know her lol
She needs her womb ripping out so she can stop breeding, proper trailer trash she is

The worst are the young lads around the age of 20-25 who have never worked a single day in their lives and get away with not working. See them walking around with cans of beer in their hands. It's wrong.

Re: Desperate Jobseeker Sets Himself Alight Outside Jobcentre in England

my friend has achondroplasia and hydrocephalus.
which means she can't wipe her own arse or dress herself, cook food or make a brew. the DWP with it's reforms now wants to check her out to see if she i capable of work. what a bunch of idiots, if she falls on the floor she cannot get up
the people who wrote the benefit reforms must of been high or retarded, their changes affect the most vunerable in society.


i think generations of people who existed on benefits should be steralised. i realise that's the road to facism, but i'm so far right i'd kill everyone and ride the bomb down waving my cowboy hat

Re: Desperate Jobseeker Sets Himself Alight Outside Jobcentre in England

I know many chicks that get pregnant to keep their WIC, Medicaid, food stamps, and AFDC and TANF checks.
I get phone calls reminding me NOT to let anyone know their boyfriends live with them!
Some live the life of Riley I am telling yous.

People should have to work for their dole money after six months.
