I'm really quite fuming. My local housing allowance is 475. My rent is 650. I had a meeting with Karl Turner, my local Labour MP. He said the lha is for people with council houses. He's wrong. I asked him why I can't get a house for 475 and he told me I could if I had a council house. But look at what I've found on the government website. It's nothing to do with council houses! So why has he lied? And where is this data? Because I don't believe it. No one can get a 2 bed house for 475 in our area, no one!!!! So why are we being scammed?
