Didn’t see the program, but foster care payments aren’t benefits, and a quick google shows they can be up to £400 per week, per child.
I think that’s what she was supposedly moaning about in them being taken into account towards her benefits allowance and counting towards her benefits cap calculation.There are so many holes in that programme’s story lines,like a supposed hand injury resulting in 9 years of ongoing long term incapacity payments and anyone preferring the risk of eviction to cutting down on drinking and smoking,that it seems to be a badly staged,look scroungers diversion and misinformation exercise,put out by the establishment.Which no surprise also seems to have selectively and conveniently given immunity to the immigrant community.
