Government has broken vow on bereavement benefit cuts, says MP

The scumbag 'nasty party' have broken yet another promise relating to bereavement benefits to parents. How many more broken promises will this scumbag government perpetrate before people wake to what they are doing???

Re: Government has broken vow on bereavement benefit cuts, says MP

It's sad but this has been long coming, it's hard to say it's actually a wrong decision when so many others have seen cuts in benefit that have really harmed them. In these days were two parents are expected to work being widowed isn't going to attract a lifetime of benefit like it used to. In principle I'd give it to them but not at expense of others who can't work.
