I was reading the newspaper and I came across an article about Abu Qatada. He’s the fanatical Islamic preacher who is on bail under strict conditions, after our courts ruled sending him home to Jordan would breach his human rights (and don’t get me started on -that-).

Well the articles says his family (a family of five) are living on benefits of £50,000 in an £800,000 rented four-bedroom semi-detached house. 50 grand! My god I have two jobs and I don’t even -earn- that! What is this country coming to that a man like him, who espouses hate and violence, can get 50 grand in benefits?!

The picture associated with the article, incidentally, shows him carrying several heavy shopping bags outside Morrisons, and a paragraph mentions he clams incapacity benefit for a … what for it … bad back.
