A couple crippled by the impact of the economic crisis claim they have been forced to sell their wedding rings just to pay their bills.
Jonathon Mahon, 55, was self employed until he had to stop working to become a full time carer for his wife, who suffers with a number of debilitating conditions.
As a result, Jonathan says he has been forced to claim benefits 'for the first time in his life' and sell irreplaceable valuables just to cover their bills - which could be set to rise again as the energy price cap rise looms and inflations creeps towards 5 per cent.
