I'm a single working mum, and dont receive any benefits apart from Child benefit as I earn 'too much'. However, once taking into account childminders, house payments, gas, electric, council tax, food (and not a lot of that), my outgoings come to almost £1600 per month. I would financially be better off not working. The system is drastically wrong!
