Meeting with Liam Byrne to be arranged

Recently we asked for your support regarding an open letter sent to Liam Byrne, Labour’s Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary, in which we requested a debate in parliament regarding a Cumulative Impact Assessment of all the changes happening to benefits, all at the same time.

We have received a reply from Liam Byrne to our request. He has invited us to meet with him to disccuss it further. This is great news.

The logistics of getting 3 or 4 of us to London will prove an ‘interesting’ challenge!

So – Pat and Liam will discuss this further over the phone tomorrow ( Mon 3rd Dec 2012).

 

We will keep you posted of details once confirmed. In the meantime please still contact him and/or your own MP. Inform them how you are being affected by these changes now, and also your fears for the times ahead.

Thank you

Pat  x
