Our sense of justice is being tested in all forms, and the budget next month will test even more

you follow the story of John and Michael O'Shea, winning euro lottery 10m and £ 6,000 per year for disability living allowance (DLA) claim that the couple remains ? Probably not, is too interesting to be part of a piece of history. This is what a challenge at a time when our sense of justice is being tested in many ways. The budget next month will test further.

This happened only 10 days earlier, the Daily Mail has learned that the O'Sheas, who still live in their old house council house in Sneinton, Nottinghamshire (county which produced Lottery £ 40m two winners in the last two weeks) DLA continues to attract Mr. O'Shea. It also remains to drive the car especially the Motability scheme replaced every three years.

All this despite winning the lottery 10.2 million euros in 2005. Yes, they did build a big beautiful house with a gray slate roof, beneath the mountains of Kerry, Ireland, Michael's house and, apparently, were generous with friends and family. But to claim disability living allowance?

O'Shea said that its profits to the authorities, as the honest citizen who is clearly, but it was recalled that the DLA does not depend on the audit in the UK - that would, in effect, if retired and John Kerry at home ("valued at £ 700,000," said the letter, she likes that kind of detail) and had their benefits assessed in the Republic.

And yet and yet. Does it feel good? I do not think this is the case, right? Or mail the columnist at the top hooligan Littlejohn, Richard, but we will not let that discourage us. The O'Sheas have paid their taxes and are entitled to DLA. But if they make money? Is it fair for the system, only people who need it most, but can not do in the current climate difficult, because stories like O'Sheas when the coalition is to find ways to reduce the budgetary benefits?

With three articles published in five days on my own - also copied elsewhere - electronic policy are obvious here, but intelligent. IDS welfare bill was against the fight its way through parliament, ministers invoking the privilege Financial (doubtful to overcome the opposition of Lords. Section hall disability.

DLA is replaced by something called the payment of personal autonomy (PIP), a title of a little Orwellian, but the details are outside the office and has resisted a lot. So it's a constant struggle.

And when Blair bids farewell to "wild beasts" speech on the press before retiring in 2007, the role that the sentence was to intimidate her back to Indy, the smallest boy in the kind.

I digress. The letter raised a question of justice, as ministers of the coalition begin to soften us all up to 21, George Osborne, the budget in March. The weekend papers were full of speculation - more a case of semi-official ideas kite to test public reaction, I guess -. Chancellor on options
