Joan Burton’s treacherous attack on lone parents is Thatcheresque

What makes me maddest is that caring for a seven-year-old child isn’t work any more. 

From July 2 the Government will finish the job it began three years ago when it shunts a further 30,000 to 40,000 lone parents off their One Family Payment because their youngest child has turned seven.

Seven? Who thinks children can fend for themselves at seven?
