High Energy Bills Pushes More Disabled People In To Poverty
Disabled people in the UK are facing an almost impossible choice between heating their homes or finding the right food that they need to survive. The cost of energy has been rising month after month and due to problems with the supply of raw materials from Russia or Ikraine. Ever since Russia invaded and countries from Western Europe have come to their defence, Rissia has threatened retaliation by created problems in the supply of crude oil and other raw materials. People who receive benefits to help with their every day essentials or care needs may find that they may have to give up other essential services in order to be able to afford the things that they need to survive.

Rishi Sunak Delivers Spring Statement
Rishi Sunak has delivered his Spring Statement to the House Of Commons in which he gave details on how the economy was managing in the light of the Covid 19 pandemic and in the aftermath of the Brexit vote. Following the vote to leave the European Union, many people who were living in the UK from the European Union, or who were working for UK based companies will have had to leave unless they qualified for a so called “Settled Status”. This may have left many businesses who depend on workers from the European Union short handed as they will now have a number of vacancies which they will have to fill in order to cater for the clients they serve. This will have left them facing a short fall in the amount of revenue they will have built up through their businesses and will leave them having to resort to apply for benefits.
