Benefits payment problems – either administrative errors that can leave claimants without cash for weeks, or the temporary withdrawal of benefits as a result of sanctions –are a factor in the increase in demand for food aid, the report says.

Also I do not think that you are entitled to benefits for the first three days of unemployment either, cannot help the situation.

very reminiscent of the recession of the 80's when another Tory Govt. was in power (1979-1990)
benefits cut in areas of destroyed industry and then every delay possible before payment of any benefits

Boris bikes were unavailable then. history has a way of repeating itself ...
