I don't think they care. as long as they save money by taking some from higher to lower benefits, and taking benefits off others. then they have achieved their goal.
the end result is a divided society. one where we look down at the genuinely unemployed.
that is a goal in itself. fuelled by the media of late.

Re: Low income exodus from London
the media need to stop using the term families, people who live on their own are not families or dont they matter?

Re: Low income exodus from London
This exodus has happened in one form here in Cardiff, from expensive, run-down private hirings to cheaper, modern, safer and more comfortable student "villages".
The students moved out, the landlords panicked when the homes were not refilled with cash cow unemployed families, then the Eastern Europeans arrived.
Now the landlords have had their fingers burnt badly by that group and "For Hire" signs are all over the place. I hope the buy-to-let vultures go down in flames as they are the driving force of rising rents.

I don't know anyone who has that goal - do you? (beside the media, which you have said fuel this (which I agree with you on)).

One day I'll teach you the English language and how it's used in figures of speech, Hugh.

The amusing thing is that you probably believe it......
