    Cameron rejects homeless claims

    </span>Nobody should be made homeless by controversial cuts to housing benefit, David Cameron has said.

    The PM refused to comment on London Mayor Boris Johnson's claim it will mean "Kosovo-style social cleansing".

    But he said the housing benefit budget had to be controlled and the government would still be "prepared to pay up to &pound;20,000 a year" to families.

    "I don't think it will be necessary for anybody to go without a home," he added at a press conference in Brussels.
