I'm a 73 year old pensioner, I live alone. Yesterday in the budget I received 3 EURO EXTRA in the living alone allowance. For me, that is an absolute disgrace. Every 2nd Sunday I go to me daughter for Sunday lunch, my 3 grandson's are always there because they know I'm coming. When I'm going home, I give the lads a tenner each, then at Christmas or their birthdays I'd give them a 20 each. I was just thinking to myself last night, imagine giving my grandson's 3 Euro each?? I would be mortified, I just couldn't do it. But Jack Chamber's can do that 2nd old age pensioners who worked all their lives and are now living alone. It's a real slap in the face.

from afar we see :
job seekers should be getting a raise. or if they do it needs to be linked to training or number job applications applied for. It's a shame that they didn't take a look at child benefit or other child payments 6 euros isn't good enough to many children are not below The poverty line they are meters beneath it.
