I did say it should vary according to which part of the country....housing rent is only £5500/6000 up north or parts of Scotland or wales and the midlands.....in the south its nearer 200 a week so that's £4000/5000 a year difference

take a family up north with 3 kids....rent say £6000 housing benefits....then another £6000 a year free handouts free prescriptions is plenty imo...then one of them must work the other part time ...then the kids go to school ad it frees up time....theres also more help with childminding

why should they simply get more than £6000 tax free cash for doing nothing?

and Id pay child benefits in childrens vouchers
