My housing benefit was reduced by £25 a month in 2012 and has been frozen since. For 15 years, I have been using my disability benefit to pay my rent. I am now in temporary accommodation, and will be over Christmas. My LHA is at least £100 a month less than local housing rental costs.

From April 2026 the National Living Wage will rise to £12.71 — but it’s just the minimum.

The real Living Wage is the only wage rate based on the actual cost of living.

Full-time workers earn:
🪙 £1,440 more on the real Living Wage
🪙 £4,070 more on the London Living Wage

“After Mr. Paul learned from his wife that the authorities were threatening to deport her without a hearing, he said, their lawyer filed a lawsuit in federal court in San Diego to halt her removal &secure her release.
In response, the government approved Ms. Paul’s green card on Tuesday & freed her”
Gut wrenching: “I had to take our baby from my crying wife’s arms,” Mr. Paul, 33, said, recalling the moment that agents said they were arresting his wife, Katie.

Ms. Paul was sent to an immigration detention center with hundreds of other people swept up in the Trump administration’s crackdown.”
