As a Brit, I've never heard of anyone being "proud" of being on the dole - and the actual amount people get from Jobseekers Allowance and Universal Credit are pitifully tiny - the current JSA of £75/week doesn't even cover my weekly food shopping costs, let alone my mortgage.

Obviously if you're on jobseekers you're meant to make the most of what you have.

£75 sounds like an extravagant weekly shop, even for a couple with a child.
