Steve, that is not a rant, that is just mildly annoyed!! I agree with you the system is so wrong. These days you can become disabled by being too fat and then the money rolls in.
There are many deserving cases for help, however. there are so many now who know just what to say to get extra. Disability living allowance, carers allowance, Kids with ADHD.
My sisters daughter has type 1 Diabetes, nothing changed, she still does the same washing cleaning etc but now here daughter is worth IIRC £36 per week extra Why?
We need a wholesale change , but when the government said to people who live in a three bedroom council house, that if they want to stay they will have to pay, the unwashed are up in arms. And these are the same who moan that their offspring have no where to live.
