I Daniel Blake

I have seen it, and while there is a possibility what happened to Daniel could happen in real life, what happened to the woman in the film was made up nonsense that would never happen.

In fact most of the film was nonsense to suit a certain agenda

Have you ever worked in a Jobcentre ?
 
Don't get me wrong, I've always voted Labour but i don't see how watching this film would change an opinion. I've worked in and around this area for a while too....

Like one of those horror movies that starts with “based on real events”. It’s fiction and people should treat it as such

Did you not see the link i just posted? Real stories from up and down the country. You can’t prove otherwise so keep your I’ll informed opinions to one side while we deal with facts.

We had these stories under the previous labour govt. It's like saying i'm voting Tory because I've watched Wall Street.

I can't believe someone would dismiss a Mum being driven to prostitution as 'made up nonsense'.

Did City High teach you nothing?

She would have no need to resort to prostitution in the scenario portrayed in the movie. It was pure spin and actually took away from the much more realistic, or at the very least possible 'Daniel' story.

The film painted a picture that she would have had no money at all due to just been late for a appointment, which one what not have happened and two even it it did,only her own money would have stopped, the money for her children tax credits and child benefit is totally unaffected by attending appointments at the job centre.

But of course the film portrayed all her money stopped which is simply incorrect

Yeah and it was the complete opposite as portrayed in the film.
