The Labour Government

Given rail costs are part of inflation calculations which, in turn, feeds into wage growth it’s somewhat self defeating (in regards to your reply) and doesn’t help the cost of living.

When a Season ticket can cost 16k and higher something is seriously wrong.

That’s Arsenal for you ;)

Once the government gets all the operators under their control they’ll have to do something on fares, will be merry hell otherwise and they’ll get absolute pelters for it.

UC is only on the first two children if she lifts the cap on child benefit it will affect UC I think?

You have to be on UC to get child benefit????

 

[Kirkstall Blue]

I don’t know for sure I thought everyone with two children got CB but if they also claimed UC that was only for two children so it will increase both benefits I think ?

Has anybody thought that we need to get more people into work so helping people with child benefit could free some time up for them to go to work? Help with child care? I mean a lot of right wing wankers hate the idea of "giving people free stuff" and also "why don't they go back to work?" and can't see the join are people who are well off entitled toss pots - oh Richard Tice just entered the conversation.
