Fifteen Quid

Fifteen bleedin’ quid. I ask you!

£780 per year, multiplied by three hundred thousand, is two hundred and thirty million pounds. A lot to you or me. But peanuts in the great scheme of these things.

£15 per week may be peanuts to you or me. But it is a lot in some people’s great scheme of things.

    You can claim up to that if your rent is less than you would be entitled to in Housing Benefit. The Government wants to stop this. Frank Field is leading the defence.

    All the more reason not to have so many people dependent on the Government!
