Description

This letter from the clergy of Merthyr Tydfil to 'The Church Times' is evidence of the widespread concern in the area resulting from the adoption of the Means Test for unemployment benefit. It is unusual in that it indicates a degree of unity on the issue from all sides of the church: Catholic, Presbyterian, Baptist and others.
