It's terrible that low income families will have to leave exclusive places Kensington and Notting Hill and move to scummy areas and commute into town. But are we going to sit by and let this happen, saying we care but not actually doing anything about it ourselves? No! We will put our own money where our mouths are and pledge donations to a charitable concern, Housing Benefit PLAN (Prime Location Access Network), which will provide "top ups" so that poorer families can continue to live in very expensive accomodation. Please give generously.

The label ‘unfair housing benefit cuts’is a dangerous oversimplification of a Pandora’s box.In due course,the government will doubtless expose numerous cases in London ,in particular,where families, many with foreign born parents, are receiving more in housing benefit than the traditional Labour voter earns after tax. We must admit the present system is unaffordable and in many cases is nothing more than a giant Land lord benefit, paid out of the taxes of working families.The issue needs careful evaluation, not sensationalist headlines, which may leave an open goal.8) percent of taxpayers receive NO benefits of any kind.

Will be interested to see how Cameron can make a 2 odd % increase in the EU budget sound like the freeze he wanted…

It also isn’t looking good if Cameron isn’t even being supported by Jonson…

BTW, no ‘Week Outside Westminster’ from Ed this week?

Nice, although I’m not sure why Vince Cable’s cowardice makes him a ‘regressive’. Or does regressive now just mean ‘something we disagree with’?
