Petition Challenge to anyone to live on £53 per week

More details

MP's and former MP's state that they can live on £53 per week. They are not taking into account the cost of food, gas, electricity, mortgage/rent, council tax, water rates, insurances and TV licence to name but a few.

We would like the people say that they could live on this amount to try and see if they could manage.
