Naomi	# Posted: 29 Jan 2009 04:25 Reply My mum has cared for her mum for years. And yet when she turned 60 and received her work pension, the carer's allowance was stopped. I was shocked- how disgusting of the government to penalise my mum for caring! She works extremely hard, and now she has money worries to add to everything else. Shame on you Brown.
