£10 Christmas Bonus described as 'an insult' to disabled people:

This is also the same for carers who save the taxpayer an absolute fortune.

It was introduced in 1972 and has never been uprated since, if it had it would now be worth approx £130.

Even this paltry amount (worth 76p today) was scrapped for those only on Universal Credit last year.
