Just watched this morning and people are messaging the hub saying he should have to try living off £53 for a week. Am I being unreasonable to think this will backfire? He will try it for a week, just about manage and decide that it is easy to do. He won't experience the struggle of doing it week after week after week or struggles like unexpected costs like household items breaking or increases on bills affecting everything. I think if he does this, it will make him even more convinced that people on benefits don't struggle.
AIBU?
