I started a thread in Money Matters and it was suggested i post a link here. Its to do with the changes to PC coming in on 15th May. PC will no longer be able to be claimed if the pensioner has a younger partner under SPA. Instead its Universal Credit.
Which also means households with a pensioner in them will have to pay bedroom tax.
This will disproportionately affect women as they tend to be the younger partner in most cases although not all.
