Question for you

Doing a little market research here.

What percentage of the welfare bill for sole parents do you think liable parents are footing?

By the time you look to the actual income sources for most liable partners (welfare), take into account those who have escaped overseas, and realize that those actually paying are paying into general funds and not to support directly, the answer is just about zero.

10% ???

Not sure I understand the question. Can you elaborate?

90 per cent. This is why the govt keeps having to think up new taxes, they won't draw back the cancerous welfare state, and the taxpayer is stuck with it.

Oswald gets the chocolate fish.

Last anon is partly right but it doesn't apply to all liable parents. Some pay plenty.
