Concern over rise in homelessness

“I believe that the WAG are genuinely doing their best on this issue, ultimately their hands are tied because the Tories in Westminster control the purse strings, blaming minorites is a diversion and used by people with a different agenda”

“what about that Greek or is he German, not sure but hes been recieving benefits for the past 60 years, has had the run of the best council houses, 4 kids all on benefits and now he's a burden on the NHS, you couldn't make it up!”

“plaid cymru

“Housing Association residents can buy their homes. Great idea, as it takes homes away from the low paid, you know - those who are getting a kicking from the tories, whilst the people who did put us in this mess are still receiving bonuses and not paying their tax.”

“DON'T Know what happened to my 1st E-Mail,, just went off with out finishing it off,, , "Well you can blame the Tories back in the Eight's for selling OFF the council Home's, the idea was OK ,, But what they should have done was to put the Money back in to the hands of the councils to Build more homes, then they could have Rented them out for say 10years and them sell them on and and build more, but No Thatcher and her Government wanted the money to prop up the Economy, now its the Housing association's are taking over, and that means people can't buy their homes after a long time living in them.....”

“This is a long overdue move by the Goverment. For too long people have turned down work because they're "better off on benefits". Well, now they'll have to pay their own way more there's less chance of that happening.

“Will The Post be covering this forthcoming 'handbags at dawn' showdown ?”

“The Polish go out and work and have family's to care for. I know many people that don't work and claiming benefits because they are addicted to drugs. Would rather a town full off polish than one full of people on benefits, these people don't contribute into society at all.”
