Many years ago and certainly with Supp Ben, governments used to give a breakdown of how the weekly amount was calculated. But the Tories made so many cuts, they actually got embarrassed at the pitiful amounts, so stopped. The breakdown used to contain 'x' amount for food, clothes, fuel, etc. but it was so obvious that these amounts were a joke & no-one could manage on them.
