What kind of country am I now living in, when the poor, young, jobless and disabled are being punished: Child tax credits and future jobs fund already axed.

Programmes aimed at tackling youth crime, boosting ethnic minority pupils and helping those with mental health issues likely to be axed next.

Support for problem families, grants for... youth clubs and sports facilities/support for disabled kids all at risk too.

This is so wrong on every level and must be fought with every means possible. 

It just strengthens my resolve to tackle those people that want to destroy the most vulnerable in our society.
