Well that's put rather a damper on my morning

Cameron is ramping up the anti-welfare-state rhetoric.

I'm on 12 prescription medicines, of which about 10 get refilled on a monthly cycle. I'm upper-middle-class and I'm Cambridge-educated.

I've been turned down for Disability Living Allowance.

If prescription pre-payment certificates disappear; if all my access to any kind of benefits disappear; if workers' protections disappear -- I am going to be utterly, utterly shafted.

And I'm one of the lucky ones.

I am terrified.
