Why, why are they going to do this. Why don't ALL MPs, drop there expenses accounts, that would save a million quid.
I used to deliver to the Parliament kitchens and also the Conservative club in Pall Mall, they don't get nothing from Tesco's. All there stuff (wine, foods, champagne) it all comes from big name stores.
IF, the Tories get back in, they will increase spending oversea's and cut spending in this country to help it.

All that is being SUGGESTED by CIVIL SERVANTS is a sort of means testing. If you were receiving benefits, then carers allowance would continue. The suggestion about DLA & PIP is making them taxable as other benefits already are. If your income is below the tax threshold, there would be NO difference.
