I have received yet another E-Mail about work. My problem I am registered disabled? I am 71? Iam on benefits/pension, and every thing I earn is taxed at 85% in the pound?
I have offered my skills for free but they won't take it, I have said pay ot into my pension, they won't. The government and Labour party are asking for people who have retired and can give skills back to its members to do so, so again offered and no reply except they stopped my benefits for 6 months while they checked if I could work or are already working?
I get between 2 and 5 e-mails a month like this.

Cardiff council won't allow me to except any position unless I pay 85% in the pound off extra earned income. That means I am working for 15pence in the pound per hourly rate. Example £20/hour rate gives me £3.00/hour. minus tax? the government really need to look at this, how am I supposed to get any savings when at the moment EVERY POUND OVER the amount they say I need to live on is stopped at 85%, they say our pension ( married couple ) is £33 over the limit and is stopped at source by council tax and housing benefits, I get less £28.05 in my pension now, try adding this to it...
