to think the Camerons are hypocrites?

I've always had the utmost sympathy for them and what they went through in losing their eldest son, but Sam has made me very cross today. She's going on about how difficult it is caring for a disabled child and saying 'it pushes you to the limits of what you can cope with', yet the other day I saw this article. It says that the BBC has seen leaked documents showing that the Conservatives are planning to cut carer's allowance and disability benefits should they get re-elected.

Brown was from a completely different background-son of a Church of Scotland minister, educated at his local state schools, suffered the loss of an eye needing several operations and a long lonely period of recuperation at home and worked as a college lecturer for some years. Love him or loathe him (I'm undecided), I don't think he was insulated from the difficulties of life in remotely the same way as Cameron et al. Not during his upbringing, anyway.

Gawd, not the two kitchen nonsense. BeyondRepair, if it's of any relevance at all, Cameron probably has 8 or more: one each in each of his properties for the family and the nanny, plus probably extras at Downing Street, Chatsworth and the constituency property.

I never heard Gordon Brown talking about his disabled child, nor his wife. And certainly not electioneering.

I think they're so out of touch and find their use of their son for political point-scoring despicable.

Not sure what I think about SamCam - we had sim experience to them except our son only lived a few months and was in intensive care. Financial impact of those few months was massive - at one point we had debt collectors round and know it is much much worse for families caring for a disabled child or relative at home. Cannot believe further cuts are being considered.

one of the random things I often wonder is.... did they make freinds with other parents when their son was alive.
if so how the hell do they look them in the eye now.
