This week, with temperatures plummeting to freezing so frequently the £25 cold weather payment looks set to be on the verge of being paid out to benefit claimants...

"if the average temperature in your area is 0° or below for 7 consecutive days you could be eligible "

Let's break that down..

"Average temperature"???

"7 consecutive days" ???

Seems a case of more Government hand outs that aren't exactly handed out..

In all the years I've been claiming different benefits, I can literally only recall receiving this a few times..

Can't imagine why criteria can't be more in favour of the claimant rather than the Government... It's bitterly cold here in the middle of a cost of living crisis...
