Having answered the first part of my question by getting me to look the information up , when the way you talk in your posts I thought you knew, perhaps you could answer the second part, how much benefit should my average family receive?
I will agree that there is a minority that can survive on benefits but you make it sound as if every unemployed person is a scrounger, which somewhat shows how out of touch with reality you are.
I really don't know what you are referring to in your post #42, I think you have confused me with Gary C but hey we all get old and the old marbles start getting confused, still running a country single-handed must be a tremendous pressure.
