Another Government mess
The cut backs in tax allowances which the Government have perpetrated, was on the basis that parents would be able to earn more, because the child care would be doubled.The Peers have rejected this (see below) so will Osborne now reverse his cuts to social security because of it???

The reason this bill was voted down is because the Lords is stuffed full of Lib Dem and Labour Peers who are just looking to spitefully spike the Conservative guns. However it will not go away, the Commons will probable review it and send it back. If the Lords persist with their silly games then the Commons can still vote it through without their consent.

Re: Another Government mess
Well we have a had a little help with our family and now two eldest are working paying tax etc we either accept some people's wages will never be sufficient to have children and deny them the right or we have a system that protects the children. I know which I prefer.I would be interested to hear how you would stop people having families as it is a basic need many couples feel, not being able to have children naturally has shaped our lives greatly because the urge and need to have babies was very strong in us.

Why on earth should the Government back down?
It was giving away another 15 hours FREE Childcare, great for working families with young kids, more money in their pocket.
All this shows is that those Peers who voted against it are not interested in making life better for those who would have benefited.
Just more political posturing.

Sillious sodus!!! - have you forgotten already that Cameron appointed another 50 odd peers only a few weeks ago so that the 'Nasty Party' could have a majority of idle, layabout do-nothing, good for nothing peers.
