Q. If you're on benefits, have you felt pushed into work? If you're in paid employment, what’s it been like for you?
Hard. As a worker who's gone from having two full time wages to one at 80% and one at 50% (had to take a part time job after redundancy as its all I could get) it's hard to struggle but watch those who don't work and claim benefits get extra help when nothing financially has changed for them. Yet we have lost so much income and still get nothing. It's hard. It doesn't feel fair at all.
