在过去的20年里一名有着4个孩子的母亲Tracy Kenny因为穿鞋过敏一直没有工作。而这20年里她一直领取着政府的残疾人生活津贴,总额累积达10万磅。不过最近该女子被告知她的津贴将被砍掉了,因为政府认为她适合工作了。 A mother-of-four claimed £100,000 in benefits saying she was unable to work because she is allergic to shoes. Tracy Kenny, 45, a former baker, says she had to give up working 24 years ago after developing a skin condition that made it impossible for her to wear shoes. She said severe dermatitis caused by all her footwear left her unable to hold down a job. But now inspectors at the Department for Work and Pensions have ruled she is fit for work and told her it will stop her £440 per month employment support benefits. |
