'Sickening': Scotland's carers short-changed by £25m last year. Millions in Scottish Government funding designated for carers went unspent by local councils, a Freedom of Information has shown. i.stv.tv/3VpZgrd
@STVNews No surprise there considering the tories and media seem to hate disabled people
@STVNews Anything to say on this @COSLA; @CllrSMcCabe, you’re not usually shy to pass comment on @scotgov giving local councils funding, or maybe your “x account manager” might care to comment?
@STVNews How can Scottish councils not spend £25m between them and let it go back to the government, when the sector is so short of money.
@STVNews When carers are given grants for holidays etc. they are lucky to get £200, which buys fuck all. Why are people not being offered more?
@STVNews And where has the money gone? That should be getting asked !
