Emeritus Prof Christopher May (chrismayla6@zirk.us)'s status on Thursday, 27-Feb-2025 18:04:14 JST Emeritus Prof Christopher May
So the DWP have been at it again, stopping carers' allowance earlier than mandated when a serious ill child was in hospital for just over two weeks.
Indeed, the fact that all payments are intended to halt after a month of hospitalisation on the grounds the carers' role has been taken up by the NHS also flies in the face of what we know about the overstretched NHS.
Its time to take unpaid carers' role seriously & stop sh*tting on them from above!
