Proud ... Granny Margaret

ONE of the son’s of Britain’s top scrounger Margaret Wilson became a dad at FOURTEEN.
William got next-door neighbour Angeline Dugdale pregnant when he was 13.
The Sun revealed yesterday how mum-of-fifteen Margaret, 41, and her unemployed husband Eric, 34, are raking in a staggering £49,000 a year in handouts.
William, now 15, has a nine-month-old daughter Amy.
He said: "I want to learn a trade such as plastering or plumbing so I can look after her properly."
William splits his time between helping his mum mind her brood in their cramped four-bed council semi and caring for his baby.
Amy lives with Angeline at the house next door in Fawdon, Newcastle upon Tyne. William added: “I found out Angeline was pregnant when I was just 13.
"It was frightening.
"I was 14 when Amy was born and I did not feel ready for it at all — but these things happen.
"We are going to stick together. I could not be happier with Amy. She is a proper happy baby."
Angeline, 17, said: “Our parents tried to keep us apart but they couldn’t. William is a good dad."
Angeline’s mum Wendy Dugdale said: “I was very surprised when Angeline fell pregnant.
"But the Wilsons are not a bad lot.”

Amazingly, Margaret claims she plans to have MORE kids — even though doctors warn against it.
She said: “Since I had my two youngest, I’ve had four miscarriages.
"The doctor told me if I have more children it could kill me. But I don’t listen to that.”
Margaret also insists she is not a scrounger, saying: “It just isn’t true. No one could say I live in a palace.
"Once the kids are fed, there is no money left.”

MAN that f***k up
Brit welfare state is all screwy
Hello 15 kids from granny WTF
Hey, the Brits have white trash too. I didn't know that.
Bwaaahahahahahaha! Compared to WHAT?
Anyone who can say that, and mean it, has had very limited contact with even half decent people.
Having 15 kids hasn't done anything for her looks. 41 years old? She'll look 91 if she has any more...
Amy thinks she got pregnant from sitting on the loo.
Thinks she got pregnant with Amy from sitting on the loo.
Er, for us English Speakers out here.....
WTF is a scrounger?
Keep it in your pants and they don't have to happen.
That neighborhood appears to be quite the trip hazard.
I think it's a British slang term for a person/family that abuses the welfare system by having lots of children and spending most of the money on themselves.
Yep.. "ne'er-do-well"
Funny how across the pond here, it has connotations of Yankee can-do ;>
According to Theodore Dalrymple, the British psychiatrist who writes for City Journal and the National Review, these people and their trashy ways are becoming the NORM in modern Britain. Which would help explain why the newcomers to that land are so very attracted to radical Islam. It represents a complete repudiation of the filth around them.
"Hey, the Brits have white trash too."
Dang, where the heck did you think our white trash came from? I think you'll be needing to read Thomas Sowell's latest "Black Rednecks and White Liberals" (something like that), it's supposed to be very interesting on this entire sujbect.
Haven't read it yet myself, but I intend to.
See, none of this would have happened if they had of had access to welfare programs.
Oh wait...
Not one "INNIT" in this entire sordid tale.
