Who Benefits?
The decision to link working age benefits to wages rather than to prices demonstrates, both that this Government has given up all hope of ever controlling prices, and that this Government has given up all hope of ever making work pay.
There is no way out of this for them, is there? Can't link to prices because they are out of control, have to link to wages because they are now worthless. Welcome to the Con Dem Nation.
