It is the Daily Mail, but as they are pointing out, it is even more of a shambles than originally thought
I don't know how they are going to get round this one.

Interesting questions raised by Alan Johnson and critics:
Would a single mother have to spend a certain number of nights with a new partner before his tax status meant she lost her right to child benefit?
'Would she have to keep a record of the number of nights she stayed with him? Would the answer vary if the nights were spent in her property or his?'< he went on.>
There were many other potential anomalies, he suggested, asking whether the cut would affect:
* A mother of two whose older child becomes a higher-rate taxpayer while living at home;
* A single mother who moves back in with her parents - one of whom earns above the threshold or with a sister whose husband pays higher rate tax;
* A daughter whose higher-rate paying mother moved in with her and her husband.
In the latter case, would the grandmother be fined if the daughter continued to claim?
