Why can't it be right ? without people like me paying full rent from wages you would not have any decent council housing at all ,instead you would have slum dwellings inhabited only by the unemployed ,you forget that the only way that LA's can afford to provide suitable housing for disabled people(for example) is by the money they make from people who don't rely on housing benefit to pay the rent

Good god man are you not reading what you are writing ,that is the most prejudiced statement yet ,you seem to think that the area I live in is somehow a bad area because it is a council estate what on earth gives you the right to suggest I need to better myself because I live on a very nice council estate
