@Angilion: A single man on £6 per hour full time with avge rent £3600/yr, council tax £1000/yr is entitled to £734/yr tax credit making his annual net income £5994/yr. Same man working half the time is entitled to no tax credit, £2251 housing benefit and £584 council tax benefit making his annual income £3983/yr Ok, these are avge figures but the full time workier is still better off
