Hopefully we can now have a proper discussion without the personal insults & puerile remarks. If there is anyone else who feels the same way as the above, now is as good a time as any to follow suit.

I am still waiting for more details so the rest of us can discuss this properly to try to get to the bottom of this worrying move.

Thus far, it's believed that this is an attempt by the Government to cut down on fraudulant claims for Carers Allowance and associated benefits.

If this is indeed the case, they should be open and honest about this Orwellian move and let the electorate decide if this is acceptable or not.

It is fair to say that some people actually resent carers.

My response was to say that I would bet my life that this parent would gladly swap every penny of his weekly £62.10 Carers Allowance in return for a fit and healthy child. I've not yet met a parent who wouldn't.
