Re: Changes To Housing Benefits

More stupid ideas from our government. I can honestly say I can only think of a few flats and one house that was a single bedroom(and that has been knocked down)

I think one of the problems with private housing these days is the high rent. Landlords charge whatever they want. £425 upwards per month for 2 bedroom terrace in the majority of areas in Accrington IMO to me is simply too high. Especially for those on low wages. The past 2 years; house sharing has been my only real option.

My housemate has been on with them for four years now. Recently they sent him a letter saying that he had to reapply and go to the bottom of the waiting list!
