So basically people on the higher rate of disability get money to live on and then get enough extra money to afford a car ,a new car that is renewed every 3 yrs .I don't suppose you can see anything wrong with that system ?

person who wants the vulnerable protected. Its the disabled being punished. This money is for things like basic toilet and dressing needs. George is raiding this so so called 'middle/daily mail' earners can have a few extra Euros holiday money.

Of course i want the vulnerable protected but not to the detriment of another class of society .For years Labour used the working man as a cash cow until in the end it simply was not worth some people going to work at all .We ended up with a ridiculous system (tax credits) that rewarded people for working less hours ,this has to stop .

No i want a fairer system that rewards those that make it possible for vulnerable people to have some kind of quality of life .Creating hardship or unfairness for those who pay the most in taxes will only split society more than Labour did
