Blame Maggie. Local councils shouldn't have to be shelling out housing allowances to be given to private landlords in the first place. That entire system is a shambles and costs a fortune. Wouldn't be happening at all if all of the council houses hadn't been sold off. Hilariously, most of those ex-council houses are now in the hands of private landlords, with the rent being paid by the council! Facepalm.

"Hello, would you like to buy my car? It's £6000. And then I'll rent it back from you for £150 a month for the next forever. Good deal, yes? "
