Original Note:
The quoted £35k figure is not the claimant's total benefit income, but rather the equivalent earned salary (i.e., pre-income tax) needed to match the benefit income, and should also account for loss of e.g., council tax deductions when moving off means-tested benefits. https://x.com/C4Dispatches/status/1863219308299497655
