00:12making their money somewhere else so you look like you might be getting a good deal but

00:14you're really not.

00:15I don't think it's enough. I have to deal with people on the front line who can't afford

00:21their bills, they just can't afford it, can't afford their council tax. There's a lot of

00:26stuff they can't pay and it's a vicious circle, it's a circle of disadvantage and 7%, yeah,

00:33it will save money. People like me that work, yeah, it will be a saving for me but people

00:56their money and what they're spending then.
