PM CAMERON CUTS DISABLED BENEFITS WATCHING PARALYMPICS



Referring back to the plan of cutting disability benefits which is already quietly in action brings it even more into focus during the Paralympics. Disabled people, even if they don’t compete in the Paralympics, deserve nothing but admirations. How they are cope in the very ordinary life to get through the day being handicapped in one way or another. Therefore, they should get best benefits which is available and it must available because money is not cut but increased for Foreign aids, sending army into another civil war which has nothing to do with the UK, bail-outs every year on top of EU contributions and wrong expenses paid to MPs and ex-Prime Ministers.  The worst and it is the highest, is the £500,000 paid for expenses to Margaret Thatcher. She doesn’t attend any meeting because she got dementia.  How dare the government be so callous with the taxpayers’ money and at the same time cut benefits to disabled people and pensioners?

THAT IS WHERE AUSTERITY SHOULD START AT CUTTING FOREIGN AID, BAIL-OUTS, EX-PM PENSIONS AND EXPENSES.

Now I am coming to my main point. The Paralympic with the Opening Ceremony was even better than the Olympics. It was heartbreaking to see these athletes with their various disabilities and yet they looked so eager and smiling all the way. Already what they achieved in the Opening Ceremony was fantastic leave alone the following competitions in various sports aiming for gold, silver or bronze.

It went to every one heart how great these athletes are to overcome such tremendous difficulties.

Yet, how can David Cameron sit there plus other government official and watch these people knowing very well what they done to them? It is beyond any understanding. David Cameron and his friends live in greatest luxuries from a start. Never have any money problems or worries but making out they know what it is like furthermore trying to convince the public. How can David Cameron be so unscrupulous and even state: “The Olympics made us proud but this will make us even prouder?” It is certainly beyond any ordinary people’s understanding and unforgivable.

COALITION'S DOUBLE-DEALINGS -- Updated 6 June, 2015


UPDATED: 6 June,2015 -- Looking back at the diabolical record of Mr Gove one question remains:  Where did the money go? 

They still managed to end up with an added £500billion debts. Yet, they still blame the Labour party which had never created so much National debts in all their years, in government put together, as the Tories in five years. 


Nothing has change by re-electing the Tories. Even worse, they are now in full power not needing a coalition. They are now cutting the Welfare benefit by £12billion to balance the books. It is another con like Austerity


To start with the very fact of selling school playing fields is a disgrace. We just had watched the Olympics which shou muchld have been an encouragement to school sport because it is there were the athletes coming from. 


Furthermore, the Coalition again promised to increase school PE to two hours a week which is appreciated but not all that great. Again that promise was not fulfilled.

Now it emerged that the Coalition selling off school playing fields. It was revealed 31 school playing fields had been approved since 2010. It also came to light that at first the figure was quoted 21. The Coalition ministers had to admit at the end that they approved 10 more school playing fields when it was discovered.

 Ministers were also accused of double dealing because another promise which was given at the election “seeks to protect school playing field.”

The 31 school playing fields application for selling them off were submitted from May 2010 till July 22, 2012. Mr Gove, the Education Secretary overruled personally any independent advice not to approve the sale of the school pitches five times in the last 15 months. It proves the care, concern and stand-by their promise made by the Coalition.

DfE admits now that 2,000 academy schools can sell off fields without approval.

Shadow Education Secretary Stephen Twigg told Mr Grove he has to come clean about the “secret programme” to sell off playing fields. Mr Twigg pointed out that fields used by academy student should have the same protection as other schools.

It was further revealed that the Coalition changed their minds of demanding at least two hours PE a week in state school. To look at it in a realistic way even two hours is not a great deal and target to get children back into sport. They should have every afternoon one hour.

It amounts again to the same story “them and us” whereby surely no playing field will be sold belonging to top schools like Eton, Harrods, Cambridge University or Oxford Universities. The main reason for making this point is that the athletes do not come from these schools but from state schools. Therefore it should be a priority to improve and increase these facilities. As it is children can’t play on the streets any more and are too much in front of TV and computers.

So far the public had nothing but broken promises from the Coalition.
