Restore Carers Allowance to Pensioners

You give with one hand but take away with the other! The removal of Carers Allowance for State Pensioners is harsh and should be restored.

Why is this important?

As soon as one starts to get a State Pension you lose any Carers Allowance (already at a ridiculously low rate!). Carers provide an enormous saving to the Government and at the very time of greatest need they are penalised unfairly.
