caring goverment

my daughter single mum,her son (my grandson) goes to sure start this was set up by the goverment for underprivaliged kids, they go to toddler grps city farms loads of classes for mum to do ect, well the goverment has pulled the plug on the funding, so all sure starts is being stopped next year. so 10000s of kids n mums are going to be left to wander the streets, no toddler grps nothing. theres alot of mums who with out this sure start would be totally cut off from other mums.
tony blair and his caring goverment

One of the main Tory Manifesto points from the last election was to withdraw all funding for back to work/subisidised employment/sure start for single parents etc etc as well as withdrawing free TV licences for over 75s, the winter heating allowance for pensioners All to be replaced by tax cuts for people in work

Anyone remember who brought in Sure Start ? Maggie T, John Major ? Er no Ah yes This current government lead by Er One Tony Blair(not that I like him)

Perhaps you should lobby the local MP etc to retain it or ask what is replacing it
