Welfare Reform Bandwagon
The government's Welfare Reform bandwagon hurtles on at an alarming pace.
Mostly designed to save the Treasury money, many of the changes to Housing Benefit, Tax Credits and Child Benefit have already been implemented with more cuts to follow in the future.
Escalating Childcare Costs
Do you have trouble paying for your childcare?
The Daycare Trust claim that childcare costs are rising nationally above the rate of inflation with parents paying more than £8,000 per annum.
Welfare Reform tightens its grip on lone parents
The Westminster government's welfare reform programme is increasing the pressure on lone parents to look for work. Since October 2010 lone parents whose youngest child is 7 or over are no longer entitled to Income Support as a lone parent.
