Would You Find It A Struggle Managing On £70,000 Per Year?

Apparently this woman does.

How can this be fair when some are to be forced to accept 'Food Stamps' from next week?

Was almost with her argument up to the moment when she said if she wasn't living off the taxpayers her children would have to take student loans to be at university and she didn't want them to be in debt . That would be a shame wouldn't it? Claiming off the taxpayer so that the taxpayer pays £9,000 tuition fees, rather than the child taking a student loan is really honourable and honest isn't it ?

oh, she's local! well, the rents are very high around here but she should be hit by the benefits cap when it arrives.

I'd love to have a go with £70k a year!
