Then, there are those who claim benefits who are quite able to work but see benefits as a lifestyle, THey manage to evade sanction by knowing how to play the system. some also have side hustles such as 'fag houses' and if you're in my neck of the woods, it's quite a few with side hustles or working cash in hand jobs.
Can I just ask why you think people in group 1 should be penalised because people exist in group 2 exist?

We also, hav working families who are working and ineligible for most if not all benefits. Who are also below the poverty line.
