Did anyone else see this in the news tonight? I can't believe Gordon Brown thinks that this is a good idea. My partner and I rely on the vouchers to make it worth my while going back to work. Without the vouchers, I don't see the point in working and I'd just have to stop.
The idea is to spend the money on giving 'poor' people free nursery places. I completely agree with helping people on lower salaries to have childcare so they can work, but do people who have worked hard to get a decent job have to be penalised? It doesn't quite seem fair to me.
I don't think Gordon is going to get the votes of my family at the next election. Please consider this issue when you're voting!
