This is the irony. LHA pays out the "average rent for that number of bedrooms in that area", which means WORKERS have to take the cheaper places as they can't afford the "average rent".

I can afford my rent.

Until you become a firefighter as unless you work loads of overtime you won't earn what you're getting of the taxpayer, or as much as this job offersAnd if i dont change anything at all i could go on affording my rent for however long i wanted to.
Provided you remain entitled to the benefits you are receiving and you have no intention of actually becoming a firefighter, because I'm not certain it will pay what you're getting now

I totally agree that minimum wage and average going wages should be significantly increased,
and property prices are very high compared to salaries.0 -
