Benefits plea
I'M 64 and have worked all my life
until a medical problem meant I
could no longer do so, but I think it's
time for the Government to look at
incapacity/pension benefits and see
how they relate to today's living
costs as opposed to when they were
set.
Most people can spend on one
night's meal what I get to live on for
a week. Come on, it's 2008. Bring
things up to date.
Brian Groves, Darlington.
