| Home sweet home: Benyon's manor and with fellow Tory fatcat landlords Earl Cadogan, Sir Richard Drax and Lard Cavendish |
When the Tories spew their bile about benefit claimants
receiving £20,000 a year in benefits people should always keep in mind that 70%
of that figure is in housing benefit and the claimant does not see a single
penny of that money it goes straight to their landlords.
The Tories have a lot of MPs, aristos and important donors who are mass landlords and they receive an awful lot of taxpayers’ money in housing benefit whilst pointing the finger at their tenants, when they are the ones who have pocketed the majority of their tenants’ benefit claims!!
Some unemployed may get thousands of pounds in benefits but unless they are defrauding the system they still only get £73 pounds per week to live on and pay their bills and eat, the majority of the claim goes to the landlord.
So next time the Tories get you to hate on the poor just remember who the ones are that are getting very wealthy out of our benefit system and just why the Tories refuse to build social housing in England.

Remember no one gets rich off of somebody living in social
housing.
Pardon the spelling in the illustration.
