    I really do worry and I have no objection to any benefit being increased especially Carers Allowance, where people are expecting the government to keep on giving? There is only so much in the 'pot' and if the State had to help out everybody that wants some extra cash this country will be in a right mess.
    The latest I hear is that pubs, restaurants and the night time economy are wanting millions in hand outs so that the businesses can pay their way.

    I have yet to see one of these petitions lead even to a discussion in Parliament. And an increase in CA may in many cases lead to a loss of other benefits.
    Seasons greetings to one and all 🎄🎅🏻🌲
