At a quick calculation, she'll get between £150 and £200 a week after tax more than if she was on benifits.Now if we were both unemployed and got housing benefit and council tax benefit it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say "work doesn't pay"

It would be a stretch.It might not be a stretch to say that two minimum wage jobs don't pay, but "work" in general, given both your qualifications, clearly would "pay"

That's true and even if you have less spare cash at the end of the month if you're workingyou're still making it more likely that you're going to get a pay rise/better job than if you're sat on your arse doing fuck all.
