Protest Summing Up

Well the Carers Poverty Protest duly came and went.




  • The loads of MP's that were forecast became around half a dozen,

  • The thousands of Carers that were due to turn up was around a couple of hundred,

  • The online petition probably contained a few hundred aliases/fake names made up by the vice chairman (his usual way or operating)

Was it a failure? Not at all. It was an absolute success, it showed Carers didn't want to support a group that intimidated/ harassed/ sent the police to the homes of Carers that stated they disagreed with the forging of the signature of Carole Cochrane (chief exec of the Princess Royal Trust for Carers)/ made false allegations of benefit fraud and owned at least 2 hate sites that many MANY Carers stated they thought were a disgrace.


It was a success for the honest decent Carers out there who have ensured that this group are hardly ever answered on Carers support forums when they post,


it was a success for those Carers that took the time to email their MP's and tell them that they did not want representing by this group,


it was a success for those Carers that emailed their local Carer groups telling them that this group were a blight on the good name of 'Carer'.


My thanks go to those that worked their butts off making sure that this disgusting group of liars and bullies were ignored by the vast majority of MP's and Carers centres.



Well done Carers everywhere for showing that integrity and honesty can work in their favour
