But my wife's grandfather was a miner he is now suffering breathing problems, he is now in a care home, and they give him after he pays his way £18 a week in pocket money. He was also in the war serving in Burma, he did not have a great war and it has left him scared it took us two years to get him help, this week he told us his £18 a week was not enough. Are we really saying that when we fight for our country, work your whole life we end up paying them pocket money what a disgrace. I'm disabled after an accident at work, with New labours plans are to make my life worse because next year my IB will be cut by £12 a week, after watching the BBC and New labours programs about benefits cheats, and Browns idea for making me work, I think I've had enough of politicians and politics to last me a life time.
