Diary of a British Worm

In the rundown community of Broken Dockyard in Manchester, Frankie West has made it his life's work to poke through every loophole in Britain's welfare system. While he was using a microwave to heat plaster bandages and pretend to be paralyzed to get insurance, his eldest daughter Fiona was struggling to support her five younger siblings by lying, doing odd jobs and sacrificing love. This is a story about survival, where morality is a luxury, stealing relief rations and cheering for scams are daily routines. They are struggling to survive in the cracks of the system. They are both miserable worms and mortals struggling to survive in an absurd life.
