These total the same as pensions, and most people on working age benefits will be in receipt of housing support, as previously stated pensions are paid for through your NI taken every month so they are not a benefit

The government love to tell you that pensioners are costing the earth when in fact they are just taking back pensions they paid into just like an occupational pension which is what successive governments have promised to do
