THE ministers in this useless Coalition government are more and more proving to the public that they are just not fit for purpose.
I voted Conservative at the last election. I agree that a cap needs to be put on benefits but, in my humble opinion, Iain Duncan Smith and his constant attacks on the poorest and weakest in society is a disgrace.
His bedroom tax is ill thought out and discriminates against decent people.
He says that he seeks to be fairer. Who does he think he is kidding? Where are the smaller social housing properties to house the people who will be evicted? In truth there are none and does he not know that George Osborne is doing his best to flog them off cheap?
People should stand up and start a campaign of civil disobedience against this policy, which is more suited to a communist regime like China than a so-called democratic country like the UK.
Next our Energy Secretary, Ed Davey, says the eight per cent green tax on our bills will be written off if we all buy more energy-efficient appliances.
Does he and the other muppets that make up this government not realise that ordinary people are struggling just to survive and pay their bills, never mind going out and spending money on new things.
The millionaires who make up this government are greedy, self-seeking liars and the Labour Party are no better.
None of them are worthy of our trust.
