    Chris - housing benefit is nothing to do with getting or not getting work as it is also payable to people on low incomes. It will reduce housing benefit, particularly in major conurbations, though it will have the effect of forcing many people to move out of the centre of cities to the poorer suburbs because of the upper caps on benefit levels.

    Bob you are right that this is an extreme example of the need for reform, but also we need to stop the council house for life and the council house as an inheritable asset. There needs to be regular checks on whether people still qualify for social, particularly council, housing and also the property should revert to the landlord on the death of the tenant(s); so as to ensure the most needy receive the housing they require.
