Why is it, that when I pick up either the Express or the Mail, I find more or less the same stories, just with different words.

I've been flicking through them recently, and 90 % of the headlines are like:

"Sponging Asylum Seekers Are Given £20000 of OUR Taxes Every Year"

"Government Re-housing For Mindless Thugs Will Cost Us £4,000,000 Per Year"

"So-called 'Disabled People' Are Being Given £9999999999 From Your Tax, For Sitting Around All Day"

I think the reason they sell so many papers, is because a lot of adults just enjoy sitting there flicking through it going, "Bloody hell, those cheeky buggars."

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of it is exagerated nonsense. Then again, I suppose it sells.
