i personally think the whole benefit system needs a massive overhaul and ALL benefits reduced even further to encourage a working family life.
i have worked for years and at one point was doing a 7 day a week, 5 days in a normal job and 2 days running my own business. paid all my taxes etc. then theres our gert - shes worked all her life in very hard demanding jobs and because of it her knees/joints are swolen and arthritic and she is doubled up with pain. i had an accident a few years ago and broke my leg and damaged my back which meant i had to stop running my own business. we have tried to get help in the past because we both worked in low income jobs but we seem to get fuck all and struggle. we now have around £400 a month left after the main bills to live on for 4 weeks.
yet our gerts neice gets a fucking fortune, her husband/chap claims all sorts for mental problems and drinking issues and gets around £400 a month on top of everything else. its wrong.
26k is a lot to some
