Leave vulnerable alone

We wish to express our disappointment, frustration and anger at the cuts the Government are proposing before Christmas in persecuting the disabled and their carers.

This behaviour plumbs the depths. In the words of former Fine Gael minister, the late Paddy Donegan, you lot are a “thundering disgrace”. Who is going to look after carers when we all suffer burnout because our support has been taken away? Our committee fought hard and were given the necessities needed to make life bearable for people with disabilities and their carers. We will not be going away until you promise to leave the vulnerable alone.
