I always thought working families tax credit allows the likes of Amazon to pay below the living wage, while the government subsidises their wages (and at the same time, don't pay much tax either!).Working Tax Credits shouldn't exist. People should be paid well for doing good jobs.
Housing Benefit shouldn't exist either. Government should be building housing for people that need it and giving low paid people good skills to remove the need for Working Tax Credits.
Housing = Greed at Council level.
Lockdown, has shown us, that the jobs on the minimum wage are usually the indispensable jobs, whilst often the higher paid jobs can "migrate to work from home" and really not do that much and don't make that much difference either. If everyone stacking shelves in Tesco had decided to work from home the country would have collapsed!
