  Of course you're quite right to point out the shortcomings of this and past administrations, Gary.
  My point is that people kill themselves more many different reasons and for those against the scheme to use this unique case (as in it's unique that someone has killed themselves supposedly as a reason for their action) is just not on.
  I'm not suggesting that you are scoring political points only that those media outlets with an agenda and of course politicians who are bound to use this case the next time the "bedroom tax" (which it isn't by the way) is raised is beneath them.
  This is why I raised other tax areas which for some add up to more than £20 per week in some cases.
  It has to be said that far more people die every year, running into the thousands, because they cannot afford to heat their homes due to taxes and subsidies which are apparently designed to save people - namely green taxes and subsidies.
  No outcry for these poor souls in fact it's hardly ever mentioned.
  Howard, I was referring to the original story which appeared in either the Mirror or the People. I'm unable to distinguish one from the other except the colour of their politics.
  I should add that the right wing press is in no way immune from this practice and once again I find it very distasteful to say the least.
