Fall in welfare claimants
Ministers have stated that the number of people claiming out-of-work benefits has fallen by nearly a quarter of a million since the last general election. The Government has disclosed a list of the top 20 areas in Britain where the number of people living on sickness benefits, income support for lone parents and Jobseeker's Allowance has fallen since 2010. Glasgow comes at the top of the table, with 2,300 fewer people claiming the main out-of-work benefits. Coventry saw the second highest improvement, with a reduction of 1,700 people, and Wigan and Caerphilly each have nearly 1,500 fewer people on benefits than they did three years ago, reports the Telegraph.
