We’ve been here before with stupid housing benefit stories, but working families are entitled to housing benefit. So even if you assume no unemployed people read the Express, it’s likely that many Express readers could receive housing benefit.
But on a positive note, here’s an Express story that includes comments from Liberty, Stonewall, the National Secular Society, and Islington Council, with no nutty right-wingers at all.
I wonder how much the ‘benefits’ applies to the most wealthy & business ‘cost’ us per week?
But I guess multi-hundred billion £ pay-outs, guarantees and tax credits don’t count with that end of the spectrum.
Talk about misdirection.
Don’t look at the top end of things and the billions spent there, turn in & look with hostility amongst yourselves over a few quid that may be shelled out to a working (cos so many of these ‘benefits’ are now working benefits) struggling individual or family.
Yes, please, do hold your breath. Until you faint, fall over and hit your head.
Might knock enough sense into you to stop you buying the Express.
And the Express are also repeating the lie about the sentence in the Plymouth abuse case.

Also the Express is campaigning against equal pay for women.

Does that figure include our ‘contribution’ towards the Queen’s housing benefit for the biggest council house in the country?

The evil c**ts.

Of course private landlords (you know, the actual ones receiving the vast sum in housing benefit the taxpayer shells out) never get brought into this.
It’s always treated as if the poor recipient is trousering the housing benefit.
do they support benefits being paid to all the public sector workers they want so desperately to be put out of work?
£20 a week as insurance, so that the State will – forever – house, clothe and feed me if for some reason I can’t do it myself?
Bargain!
The ‘barmy’ Express at it again.
Matthew, that’s very unfair. Brenda and Phil actually have four very big council houses.
