Not sure if I can claim?

I have two jobs at the moment, a full-time 40 hours per week office job and a part-time 11 hours per week in a shop one.

From 31st March, I am being made redundant from my main job and will be left with 2nd job which pays £50 per week. This isn't enough to live on!!!

Obviously I am looking for another FT job but in the meantime, would I be entitled to claim anything? If I hadn't got a 2nd job I would be able to sign on, claim on my mortgage protection etc.

Will having a 2nd job (albeit one that pays peanuts) stop me claiming anything?
:p
