Re: Benefit cap goes before the Lords.
I think "gobsmacked" is the word that comes to mind when reading of these families living in luxury while claiming benefits. How on earth do they wangle it and who are the "geniuses" giving the OK to their choice of home?
Reasonable accomodation and enough money to live with dignity should be the parameters used to calculate benefits to those who need them. It seems there's a trend emerging -to be upwardly mobile in today's Britain you need to be unscrupulous, lazy and know how to work the system.
