They will be forced to drop their rents if the cap comes in, they charge what they do because the social will pay it

£500 a week tax free? thats quite a good 'take home pay', if you cant live on that, tough **** youre wasting too much money.

£26000 tax free is just a smidgen under £35000 before tax for those paid a salary.

 

I agree with benefits to help those in need, but that kind of figure takes the piss really. It's a vast amount of money, often rewarding the recipient's tightness in the purchasing contraceptives department.

 

On the flip side, countries such as Sweden demonstrate that a good and generous welfare system creates a fairer and happier society, so who knows who's right?!

26k is twice to much for them , if there getting it all handed on a plate it's not encouraging them to go and find a job , bring it down to 13k they will find jobs .. Or starve !!!
