It`s Doom and Gloom..................but it is Spring.
Cameron is about to be reminded of an awkward truth.
He has enjoyed a good deal of support for his much-vaunted welfare reforms thanks to a widespread feeling and propaganda that the system had become too open to fraud and waste.
But just watch the mood turn when people see what his savage cuts do to the sick and unemployed.
On 1 April 280,000 disabled people and countless others suffering from cancer and various chronic diseases will have their benefits slashed as part of an effort to cut an ``unthinkable``£ 18 billion from the benefits bill.
Despite Cameron`s promise that he would ``never hurt disabled chilren``most of them will lose £ 27 a week.
``Expect heart-rending stories from the 25,000 young carers looking after disabled parents who lose £ 70 a
week.
Disability living allowances is to be cut by 20%,removing funds for transport and day centre fees at a time when council
social services are also being withdrawn.
These reforms have already had a rough ride through the Lords,but wait till the the voters wake up to them.
