Get a job

Lizzie Devine, from Tamworth, said her son Lewis has noticed she is 'struggling' as mortgage costs continue to rise.

“They need to stop interest rates rising otherwise … “He feels bad asking me for stuff now and he’s just accepted that’s life. I don’t want that for him … Ms Devine said her current mortgage lender is inactive and has left her “stuck” with the current payments. “He wants to get a job so he can help – a 13-year-old shouldn’t want to get a job so they can help, they should want to get a job so they can go spend money at crazy golf or something. A single mother said she is “heartbroken” by rising mortgage costs as her 13-year-old son has considered getting a job to help her cover monthly payments.
