the sum is irrelevant because things like housing benefit are based on the costs of the accomodation, its not cash in someone's pocket.
if someone on £80 a week can live a life of luxury, then surely someone on 24k a year the uk average must be living the life of royalty right?

its a million miles away from the truth.
so you said you dont believe it but then say its not far from the truth. so obviously you do believe it. If it was close to the truth then surely they could find a legitimate situation to report as facts.

simple question, who would be against the media been required to only report facts.
not allowed to post opinion in anything other where its specifically titled to be as such eg. a blog.
