@grookmedianews: British people are tired of footing the bill for Benefits Street. Tired of seeing welfare claimants living lives of luxury at their expense. Strengthening the Benefit Cap would end golden tickets to unlimited welfare and save £1bn. Why won't the Minister do it?
I started working at 17 in 1971 and get a £900 pension, which I put in to the system all my life. I am not entitled to any benefits and struggle every moths to pay my rent and bills every months.

Am I doing something wrong, or am I just not clued up on what I'm able to get. If I could work, I'd go back in a heartbeat, but unfortunately my body won't let me.

I'm 65 and have to work until I'm 67 and my government pension barely covers my bills. so I'll have to continue working until I die. if I could leave this country I would. I am disgusted with this government and how they can treat their old age like this. when kier starter walks away with a nice fat salary after what he has done to this country. makes me sick.

it's time to start taxing benefits at the same percentage as working people. benefits should be taxed.

It’s just wrong, wrong, wrong. Well said, but the opposition didn’t do much to change it when they were in government.
