Jobless mom spends child cash on cosmetic surgery

A jobless mother in Cumbria, in the U.K., has spent 34 million won ($30,837) of child benefits on cosmetic surgery.

Andrea Dalzell, 48, had saved the money since 2003 and used it for operations, the Daily Mail said.

She told The Sun that she had one meal a day and did not drink. She also said her “kids have never wanted for anything.”

“I have always known I would have surgery,” Dalzell said. “Having wrinkles and bags and going gray just isn’t me.”

She spent 6 million won ($5,400) on surgery in Budapest.

The Taxpayers’ Alliance has criticized her spending.
