The cap for benefits is going to hurt us, even if they stick to their promise not to include payments for the disabled. There is no sign yet that the cap will increase as the years go by, so it will get worse and worse.

How will this cap be fair when a single person will have the same cap as a large family all living together, with no prospect of affording, or being able enough, to leave?
The £26,000 or whatever it be is a cap ,the most anyone will get including housing benefit ect ,obviously a single person will get much less.The idea is to stop benefits outstripping wages as they often do now
