Thats ridiculous what makes me laugh is the longer you are on benifits the more your money goes up. so the people who geuinly want lobs get less help than those who dont
whoever thought that through must have been on LSD

My heart goes out to you hun
I was struggling with benefits and cos i get a very small widows pension from where my hubby worked I couldnt get any help with anything. Had to pay school dinners, full rent and full council tax and yet those on benefits get it all and can go pub several times a week. The system is all wrong. I have just got a part time job and now the give me all sorts as I now get working families tax it entitles me to prescriptions and everything and my income has nearly doubled, how do they work it out?
not that Im complaining now of course...lol
hope you can get something sorted soon hun
