In Channel 5's Spray Tan Mums: Single & Proud, Jo reveals that she's been slapped with a £990 bill from the energy company and she hasn’t got the cash to pay. “They want it to be paid in seven days. I’m not paying, I haven’t got it. I’ll have to phone them, but I’m not happy.”In Knowsley three out of every five families has a. But the impressive single mums who live there have each other - to laugh, cry and get by as shown in the series.

So 4 more kids being brought up with a handout expectation rather than a work ethic🙄 brokenbritian

Let’s see an article on the many others who are sincerely and honestly trying to feed, clothe, and raise children on a pittance of help given! OH! Then, follow that up with an article re: the many politicians and publicly “fed” Corporate biggies who live ridiculously luxuriously.

A PROUD MOTHER INDED

OMG coppers are getting younger all the time!

Why do these idiots make the real poor look stupid not all of us on benefits do this shit its hard to pay bills put food on the table and have no luxuries at all people like her will never change and she most likely have more children with different men I feel sorry for them

Priorities

What a load of crap.. Can't pay bills.. More like use tax payers money on her self..

Sometimes people just need to feel good.

Slag 2019👍🏿

bad money management

Get a bloody job then

Cant afford trousers to go with that top

See this get a job!

Let people live their life and mind your own business! Those kids look healthy, leave them and their mum alone!

Many times watched single parents on the news struggling on benefits with manicured nails, hair extensions and false eyelashes. I was beginning to think parents in poverty got free makeovers workingclass miss out again

and tell us about how 10 billion goes unclaimed a year in benefits? Or start ranting about City of London fraud or MP's fiddling expenses or Peers? Or people not claiming benefits who are entitled to them?

And as for you, you haven't paid tax into the UK since 1987. So how much money has that starved us? Money which could have gone into the NHS or Schools or on road repairs? Or tell people about how benefit fraud costs us 1.3 billion a year and tax evasion 4.6 million a year?

Can't afford.bills but can most.proberly afford to get on the cocaine and get smashed. It's.amazing what people can do even tho they say they can't afford

Why don't you highlight cases of people suffering due to benefit cuts or Universal Credit or Cancer patients being forced to work? Instead of using extreme examples as propaganda to back this governments benefit cuts and attacks on disabled people?

She needs money management, pay your essential bills, house tax, rates, water gas and electric.. commons sense really, sort the kids out and if anything is left treat yourself.

So bloody what!!! You cheap stakes. Maybe she needs a little bit of refreshing.

A lazy journalists knocks out a mediocre article slagging off somebody who does a real job while raising 4 young children. GutterJournalism BashingThePoor

Go home look AFTER kids

Good for her. Perhaps she can share her finance skills with all of us.

so she can afford to pay her bills.... she just chooses not to
