Doesn't the UK have something equivalent to TANF/food stamps?

Yes, it has social security benefits. They aren’t especially generous but they’re a lot more than £5 a week (plus unemployed people can usually get a significant chunk of their rent paid).

Unfortunately it doesn’t quite work like that. What’s left after rent and bills can be close to zero.
