Oh, man. The Sun today got to splash across its front page the headline WELFARE HAREMS.
I'll bet they needed to send some cigarettes to editorial after they saw that. MOSLIMS CHEATING WELFARE! It's like the second coming for a Sun reader. Plus it's got that lovely "Look what that gay marriage got us into!" subtext that they love so much.
That, along with the grumpy looking family who won the 6/49, plus DOCTOR HORROR's arrest in Nepal, got peoples off to their start this morning. Buried in para 5 is the line that "legally a welfare applicant can only claim one spouse".
