Unfortunately most people are just the cattle working for the rich land owner. Your life is for labouring so the owner of the business feels the benefit

I’m concerned that Care workers have been classified as unskilled. I think a good care worker has skills and training that many can never master and certainly can’t in a few weeks

Wrongly starting from the premise that good care workers are unskilled

They are starting from the premise that a good care worker is unskilled, which is wrong.

Do we want good or bad care workers? A good care worker is skilled. Why does society still see it as unskilled work?

When will we stop seeing care workers as unskilled? Not anyone can be a good care worker and that should be appreciated more.

I think many disabled people are worried about this and possibilities of erosion to initial “6 month terminal illness” ruling. People are also sold the vision of a peaceful death in a beautiful setting surrounded by family but how truthful will that be?

But they’re all so poor, with millions in assets. Do they qualify for universal credit top-up on such a low income?

If livestock are counted as assets, they could lower assets by farming crops instead of animals

The only way it effects family farms is if they’re not passed onto their children 7 years before death - I’m sure most who intend the next generation of their family to continue in farming will be able to do that. Obviously if the next generation doesn’t want to farm, it won’t effect family farms
