On Tuesday I will be at a meeting down in the council offices in regard to the federation. I trust we can revive something .

In the meantime are we all keeping warm.

Over the next few weeks it will be interesting to see how much harm will be done to vulnerable people with all the changes that are coming in the welfare system. The other week I saw a welfare worker with a client.The worker was trying to remind the client that they had no food in their home and perhaps they should not be buying something that they already had.I have reservations about paying the likes of housing benefit direct to people some people just cannot manage their money. We only have to look at people who are in work & earning a good wage that are now taking out some form of dept restructuring.  There again look at the people who are in work and  exit on heir overdrafts.
