I’m guessing it will be the usual storm in a teacup though 

It's being reported on Sky News ATM

keep your home heated to 18 degrees...I'm assuming that's for the elderly and gas leaks 

Southern stratospheric warming they're calling it

But that isn’t a normal full weeks pay ..is it ....?

Not even that, it's a week. I have a letter from DWP to say I'm allowed £38.03 a week.   Because I'm getting a private pension

I honestly don't know how people survive and those poor people who have to pay £15 a week bedroom tax out of that  no wonder homelessness is at the highest record since records began

Depends what you mean by a 'week's pay?  Do you mean JSA or minimum wage pay?

Oh I see .....yes , that would make a difference .....I’ll be just over the limit for any benefits when and if ...

Jobseekers is £73.10 a week and if you had little private pension it didn't affect it until a certain limit, now the Tories have taken that away and everyone apart from under 21's must live on that, plus you have to make a payment towards your council tax. 

4 people have been taken to hospital..I fear it may be worse than that

They say if you have savings of £16k and over that you have to live on that and then claim, but you have to give details of where you've spent it

I've also had a letter from the Agency to say that they're letting me go and they will post my P45 and contract will end on March 2nd

Because they say I haven't been in touch with them since I finished work which is a lie, I have e-mail dated.

Also saying it is a requirement of employment that I stay in contact and attend any assignments that may be offered. There's a bit more but too much to type here 

How can an Agency boot you out Sprout 

Seriously, my nerves can't take much more
