I truly believe (even with elderly parents) that as a civilised nation we shouldn't need to be in the position that we need these fuel allowances etc. We need a Government that rather than give `top ups` for things, get the bastards that are robbing people on energy and normal house hold things. We're lucky enough to be on oil so when the prices drop I order 500L of it but our electrics gone up again, food shopping again, council tax is going up again, we wouldn't need WFA if the likes of British Gas, BP etc can dish out millions a year to their bastard bosses!
