To reduce benefits the Conservatives have used private companies to access if people are eligible for benefit. One question asked will be can you prepare food for yourself?. If a person lives on their own and answers yes (because they would starve to death otherwise) but says only with great difficulty due to terrible pain, or dreadful complications, they will get 0 points. The accessor will write down that the person can prepare a simple meal for themselves. A consultant, or GP, saying how ill a person is doesn't count.
VAT is now at a whopping 20% to make up for the shortfall, they say. And we can't live beyond our means, they tell us.
It's sad how the British public puts up with this, but they are not being informed by the media.
The Conservatives have borrowed more in the last 7 years than ALL Labour Governments did in 33 years!
