Quandry or Not?

Well, seems Mr Brooon has some work to do before he gets thrown out!
He is going to sort out the carers of this land.
He is about to try to keep him members in line with the "42 day" vote!
He is facing the prospact of a 4 day strike by tanker drivers!
There is even a whisper that there could be a General Strike!
Gas prices are about to hit a record £1 per therm!
Electricity prices are sure to follow that!
There is going to be a Revolt over the 7 years and over car tax "stealth tax".
Carers are paid around £50 per week to care for sick and disabled relatives,,,,,
which is saving the government over 87 billion pounds! in care services for those people!

Lets tackle the carers issue.

I am a carer.
Have been for around 19 years.
i should be getting around £70 per week (based on the needs of the cared for person) and also carers allowance of around £50,,,,, plus income support.
what exactly am i getting for looking after a disabled family member who can not go out on her own, can not shop on her own, can not cook on her own, needs help in the toilet, needs help to sit down and stand up, cant brush her hair, cant wash her hair, cant walk far, suffers serious depression due to her condition?
Income Support!
Thats all i get!
She gets £16 per week Disability Allowance.
She has no real quality of life.
I have no real quality of life,
and we are called "scroungers, and spongers"

And now what do we hear?

this,,,

a spokeswoman for the Department of Health confirmed that ""the government has made a commitment to review the benefits system and financial support for carers.""

its all in here,,,

So what can we expect from something like that?

Precious little!

You see,,, whatever they decide, they cant and wont give us any more money cos they spent it all on the reimbursement of the 10 tax fiasco!

To give us more money would mean abandoning all attempts at getting people off benefits and back to work.
Unless,,, they go with the original idea and pay us a living wage.
if they did that, they could take us all off the jobless total,,,, Back of the net, He shoots, He scores!
But will he do it?????

You bet your sweet ass,,,,,,

HE WONT!

Its all come full circle again,,,, No Money!

I give up!

Topping oneself is allways an option.

That would save a few coppers for the coffers!
