I bet Osborne tries to include this in his 12 billion benefits cuts

Why shouldn't he include this in those proposed cuts? I hope he does. I don't see why those at the bottom should be the only target.
It seems like people like yourself think you don't deserve to be part of the austerity cuts because you think you've earned the right not to be touched. But at the same time don't mind those that are struggling to be hit as long as it's not you.
It's like when child benefits cuts came in and the amount of concern voiced from those on £70,000 that kicked up a fuss.
As you say, without people like you.....
