I guess I'm questioning the spin that the BBC article put on this. And no I'm not ok with this happening to people. However, there were opportunities where he could have helped himself - exhibit better judgement on who he chose to drink with, thus avoiding the stabbing; - understand that the change in benefit payment is making it his responsibility to pay the rent. Let's face it he must have noticed the increased payment to him when that first rent cheque landed in his account.
Living in the UK and being subjected to this sort of "journalistic" output from the BBC day-in-day out, I read it as a propaganda piece by the BBC designed to support their agenda.
