Do you think it wrong if the Goverment scraps the Education Maintenance Allowance (EMA)?
This small weekly sum must be very beneficial to some students of poorer families in enabling them to stay on school.
Although abused by some, this money is used by some students to by pens, pencils, exercise books and text books etc, in some cases it is used in transport fares to enable them to get to school, also food.
This pittance is classed as expenses for the students, and the MPs should know all about them, at least the students won't be travelling 1st class.
Query, If these youngsters finished school at 16, how much would they be paid in "Job Seekers Allowance" while they looked for a job?

/// Or is that being overtly left wing & radical.? ///
Not in the least it is common sense.
The only trouble about taking from one to give another, is the fact that always in a 'Mean Testing' one needs to know where to draw the line.
You can get situations where some who don't work and are on numerous benefits are reaping in more than some who work.
Would you take some off them and give it to those at work?
