    EMA is a joke.

    Think about it, your only eligable to earn thirty quid a week if your..
    . A single Child
    . Deceased/Divorced parent(s)
    . Earn less than 30k a year (Including tax benefits)

    Thats a very very small percentage of the population. - But still yet they advertise it like a large percentage of the people aged 16-18 can recieve it. Even if you are still eligable for it and your parent(s) earn under 30k a year, you will only recieve a smaller amount of money. The only way to earn the full 30 is by having parent(s) that are unemployed and cannot find work due to illness/other related problems, which basically means "If your parents are on the dole, you earn an extra thirty quid a week for staying on in further education".

    And no i'm not eligble for it, nor would I claim if was eligable for EMA as it's a waste of the taxpayers money.

    I don't get it, and I wouldn't really care if I got it, although a few friends in school have been saying about everyone should get it and all this, and I just think, if you want it, you should get it
