its as if he has become negitive or zero value and a drain on resourses if thats not enough lets try and rob him at the same time IN FULL VIEW spect harry would fair much better...he could go on the talk shows and discribe how he go,s to the loo and have it splashed all over the paper,s....the only difference would be big bucks for the interviews ....and he gets to keep his dignity aswell bloody crazy....maybe they want the money back for the cost of his training, money might be tight and cutbacks are everywhere ....BUT LETS NOT FORGET WHO CAUSED ALL OF THIS....
LIFT UP YOUR EYES AND SEE

Why should someones Wife be paid to help them? Fair enough - if he needed help and had to pay for a carer - he has been assessed as not needing it and it is his wife - not someone he has to pay.
That sense of entitlement is what pisses me off.

I dont see why not,... if I was injured, I would much prefer my wife to care for me, than I would want a stranger,.. the stranger would be paid to do the service,.... so why not the wife?

Dignity, sanctity or marriage, possible conflict of interest, possibility of fraud, the idea that the state is more of an important provider of care than the family...

I can assure you that these guys wouldnt want help of any kind if they had the choice, they just see a tour in a war zone as just their job,... no different from any other job in the country,.. they only except help if there is no way they can look after themselves.
If our political masters can pay themselves hundreds of pounds a week for bonus claims, then they should be willing to pass laws that insure that help is payed for,..for who ever is able to do the caring
