Now i know many of us were fed up about the whole CB being withdrawn from those over the threshold etc , i was ,but if that meant the Rivens of this world got a bit extra then i wouldnt mind , on the news this morning it said that those getting disability living allowance (might of got that being wrong) will not be getting it if their child is in hospital , because the nhs will be providing for the childs needs .WRONG ,WRONG,WRONG . the nhs will not provide toiletries, laundry facilities ,decent incontinence gear or (unless the child is in ITU) one to one care

I'm so sorry that you have such poor provision Riven and that DD's care needs have suffered because of this.
More money is needed and its clear now inclusion has developed money needs to be invested to make it work.

Its just Sad that money talks in this day and age.

Confused who's stooping to personal attacks? I think I'm the one arguing against them!

I don't give into bullying, here or in RL. You can bitch away on Facebook, on here, whatever. I really don't care. People are allowed to have different opinions. I don't go with this hierarchy bullshit where all posters are equal but some posters are more equal than others.

There's no point carrying that part of the 'debate' on, anyway.

Fact: money makes things easier for parents/ carers of people in hospital.

Also: taking DLA money away is bad.

Also: disabled services in general are shite and the Government should improve things rather than taking money away.

And: the Government could and maybe should reverse some of the actions/ non-actions taken by Labour.

Also: in my opinion, it's wrong to make personal comments about DC's specific situation, knowing how that ended up.

givemesleepandsomerevenge why is it bullying for someone not to agree with you? sorry I don't get that. I disagree with you, that is my right, same way you can disagree with you.
as for bitching on fb, no idea what you are talking about.

a PM has to accept that is policy, or non changing of policy will be discussed.
