A family which is so obese that they cannot work has convinced the government to pay them the equivalent of a substantial salary in benefits; not satisfied, they demand even more, saying “We deserve more”, and claiming that “All that healthy food is too expensive.”
The Chawner family claims £22,500 ($33,000, or $45,000 prior to the UK’s recent economic collapse) annually in benefits, having lived off state handouts without working for 11 years.
Still, even this is not enough and they demand more:
“What we get barely covers the bills and puts food on the table. It’s not our fault we can’t work. We deserve more.”
The family:
From left to right, daughter Emma (19) weighs 107kg, mother Audrey (57) and father Philip (53) each weigh 157kg, and eldest daughter Samantha (21) weighs in at 114kg.
In total, the family comes in at some 525kg.
The gargantuan clan claim economic hardship forces them to eat vast quantities of unhealthy food, whilst advancing the contradictory claim that they are suffering a genetic condition:
“All that healthy food, like fruit and veg, is too expensive. We’re fat because it’s in our genes. Our whole family is overweight.”
Their diet, coming to 3,000 calories a day each, much more than the usual recommended maximums, leaves little doubt as to how they attained their exaggerated girth:
“We have cereal for breakfast, bacon butties for lunch and microwave pies with mashed potato or chips for dinner.”
Their benefits come in the form of “Jobseeker’s Allowance” (unemployment benefit), income support and “incapacity benefit”, as well as a disability allowance for Mrs Chawner’s asthma and epilepsy, a result of her weight. Additional money for conditions such as heart disease and diabetes top off the largesse.
Emma excuses herself with the claim that she is too busy training to be a hairdresser to exercise, and then pleas ignorance:
“I’m a student and don’t have time to exercise; we all want to lose weight to stop the abuse we get in the street, but we don’t know how.”

Possibly a similar genetic condition afflicts a certain comedy idol…

Thats some grade F bulldroppings. Student cant excercise? Most universities have gymnasiums a walking distance away from the dorms. Of course students have time, most dont sleep more than 3 hours a day. She cant be spending all that time studying, not only is it monotonous, studying for extended periods of time often results on very poor memory retention.
What a bunch of lazy fucks.
This is sad. No shame whatsoever. Just looking for handouts. The least they can do is work for all that food they're devouring.
Man the harpoons!
First and foremost, bad topic pic. I cried after seeing Miku like that. (;_;)
On the subject, WTF do they think they're kidding? Part of their problem is that they DON'T RESPECT THEMSELVES! I'm a bit over 300 lbs., but I can take steps to get back to 300 or about 280 (if I want to). I don't eat as much as I used to, I have to walk around campus for most of the day, so I'm pretty healthy.
These obese idjits haven't even made an attempt to even eat healthy, walk more and exercise when they can. Send their asciis to Gitmo before it closes to help them work off most of that fat they've accumulated.
Remember ppl, this may be a glimpse of what you could continue to see with flawed nat'l health care systems.
***** End of Trolling PSA *****
Disgusting.
and this folks, is why socialism is fucking stupid. especially the UK's brand of extensive welfare for the unemployed and pig-fat lazy.
For a second, I thought the family was going to be from Japan, and then I read UK and it made me feel relieved that at least some parts of the world are still not as horribly stupid.
God this is awful.
Buncha bullshit i say. Used to work at Monaco Coach Corp. and I worked a guy that was bigger than them. Sure he was just drivin a forklift but he was still at least workin.
Four words:
Krusty Brand Immitation Gruel
they all fail completely
LOSE SOME FUCKING Waight FAT BASTARDS !
I AM GOING TO MY HEAD OFFICE AND TELL THEM ABOUT THIS IF THERE GOING TO GET MORE MONEY I WONT BE PAYIN TAX
114kg may be obese, but its certainly no where near enough to stop you working checkout somewhere for example(I've seen plenty of people that way this much, or more, working in various retail sectors). Do that full time and one of them would make as much as they're receiving in benefits.
*'weight' not 'way'. My mind failed ><
Tabloid junk
I'd do unspeakably horrible things to Chunky Miku. <3
I am with, for, and love you, Maxchain. Let us rejoice in what is known forever, as Miku Chunky.
Damn fat people... Chubby Miku looks cute though...
they don't wanna go to work because they were too fat?
how about they just make this guiness record:
"the most biggest lobotomy surgery that mankind ever did"
since they are government pet, and nobody cares if they die or not, might as well make them as test subject of lobotomy surgery development.
so their lazy ass can still be useful.
and even if they die, they still can be called as martyr of lobotomy development
how's that?
whoa how come i didn't see this in the papers. i would of laughed really loud in the bus on my way to work
BECAUSE
the newspaper counts it as small & useless topic
which artefact good at finding it
or maybe, this is some months ago news, you must be missing it if you're busy not, like those lazy fucks above's
i never read my country newspaper tho :D
indonesian here
i checked it, it was posted in 17th march 2009
in UK.telegraph.co
god, this hate somehow turns me to search more info to ridicule this fat sloth's!
i'm a 105 kg and i'm currently starting to start my jogging again!
Shit, I'm fat as fuck (well, maybe not as fat as these fucks) and even I don't going to stoop that low. Weight isn't a barrier to work, just to getting laid.
Also, Pleasantly Plump Miku is still cute as all get out.
"Don't going to stoop that low"
... Maybe I should stoop to an English class though *facepalm*
They can walk and get groceries, they can walk and go to work. There are jobs they can do. I can see with the one with asthma and epilepsy, but the others are fine. (look at the picture)
:sigh: Whatever, it's their government trying to look good...
Make them join the British army, that way they would lose some weight and at the same time they could be of some use to the british society
if the world's heaviest person gets to work out all day,why can't they?Their sloth-like laziness is such a disgrace.
At least it isn't the United States this time.
I'd love to see Marjorie Dawes have a go at them.
You know, the man looks kinda like a fisherman.
He should've learned how to man the harpoons...
It's like the story of Moby Dick, only in this case Ahab married the White Whale and produced two humanoid sea creatures.
Those fat looseeerrsss need to start working.
damn it don't they have the slightest bit of shame? is their shame covered by that fatness??
It's in their genes? Its not their fault? I think it's bullshit! They just dont have even a slightest drip of will power. While it's true that some ppl's metabolism making them fat more intensively than other, every fat fucking pig have the ability to loose weight, they just dont know what is "hard enough" means. Losers.
Diet, exercises, gym.
the average UK salary is 25,000 Euro per year (19,000 after taxes) The avrage income of a welfare family in Britain *coughmuslimsuncough* is 21,000 Euros after taxes.
This what we call the "JOHN GALT" line the point in Ayn Rand's atlas shrugged where the workers led by John Galt realized they made more collecting welfare then working full time.
In America you can still make more part time then welfare at minimum wage but i work full time. I wouldn't if America had a UK level John Galt line.
Funny.
I weigh 140 kilos, yet I can still work. Sometimes even more efficiently than most who are half of my weight.
And my work doesn't involve paperwork, but more of walking around and sometimes even running around for an hour continuously.
Those fatasses should just try to be a lil more active and they might even be able to be FAT and still be hardworking.
One more thing...
WHAT THE FUCK DO THEY EVEN PUT ON THE TABLE DURING DINNER?! FOLDS OF LARD LADEN HAM AND FUCKING QUADRUBLE FUDGE CHOCO CAKE FOR DESERT?!
Spend less on food and spend more on gym membership.
You know, on one hand I'd say show a little sympathy but as a big guy myself I can't have -any- sympathy for these gits.
I work, I have a job and I DO NOT try to take what I have not earned.
These people are simply lazy welfare whores.
THIS is what happens when the liberals call the shots, liberals like a certain new president COUGHTobamaCOUGH.
Why doesn't the British government tell them to go work off all of that... hideous fat? If the family doesn't comply, then they shouldn't get any 'compensation' whatsoever.
I mean, they basically told those trying to immigrate from the middle east that they weren't allowed to when I was over there in the summer of '08, or maybe I heard wrong.
Either way. :/
People like this are examples for why to abolish welfare.
Amazing news: drink fucking water and have some vitamin pills. Don't eat anything with calories until you dropped the weight.
All that 'your metabolism slows' stuff is bullshit, if you have water and vitamins your body will just go into ketosis. You'll feel lethargic, yes, but suck it up.
The UK gov should get them one of those bike cars and make them use it for all trips less then 5 miles as that would solve two problems at once.
They'll get exercise to loose a few pounds and save money on gas thus not require any extra money.
God I hate these assholes. They actually end up believing their bullshit too.
3000 kcals? WTF? I'm 189 cm 72 kg and I usually eat around 4000 kcals. Used to weigh more, but that was when I ate about 5000-6000 kcals. These whales probably eat like 10k kcals per, minimum.
someone needs to send them to fat camp
bloody bastards , if they are too fat to work then lets throw them in gulag . This is disgusting and insulting considering all the starving children .
So, this is the graphic depiction of the concept "EURO TRASH".
funny how im 114kg and im not to fat to work though im 185cm and none of them look taller then 160cm
3000 kcals? Wow, maybe they are ill. At 189cm/79kg, I generally knock down 3500-4000 kcals daily, and start loosing weight very fast whenever I don't.
PS the brits should consider deporting them to America. They'd fit RIGHT IN =)
Look at this on the bright side. Once they're dead, they can make soap with their remains. =P
And before someone comes calling me a nazi, bite me. Those slobs aren't that fat that they can't work. They're just fucking lazy.
All they do is eat fattening food.
Despite what many posts say, fat people don't deserve to die.. Maybe forced to run around a football field and every time they slow down get a shock from a cattle prod, sure.. but not death..
I blame ignorance. These people are obviously convinced that there is a fat gene and that they can't help being who they are... It is sad that people let themselves get so bad and still find something to blame other than themselves
I betcha like 50% of the posters saying smack about em are just as if not fatter.
fucking sick tho. that's what i'm talking about. amer-er, british dream.
live off the fucking government. damn bourgeois country. wish our country is like that, then just gain weight and voila, easy money. fuck work! live off the hard working people. fuck yeah.
I've seen people way more fat than them and they take the bus and have one or two jobs. I'm also fat as hell and I'm doing regular stuff.
Who the hell wails about "being too fat"? that's reality; you fucked yourself now it's time to go on a diet.
Stop crying to the government, stop stealing tax payers' money and go get a job, fatties.
I doubt these fatsos would survive if this were Charles D. Britannia's Britain. ALL HAIL BRITANNIA!!!
