Next they’ll be saying my blind, deaf, learning disabled elderly clients can get back to work and have their benefits cut
Already happening I’m afraid. Our wonderful governments new ‘targets’ for getting people off benefits mean the default position is to regard everyone as fit for work. You are now interviewed/evaluated by unqualified box-tickers with no medical experience. Short of being paraplegic, your on your own! Under the new system, 75% of the decisions are being turned over at appeal as unfair. But the government are banking on people not having the means/motivation/knowledge to lodge appeals. Its scandalous! Totally and utterly morally wrong!!!
This is worth reading
Big Society?
During the preliminary roll-out of the test, people with terminal cancer, multiple sclerosis and serious mental illnesses have been found fit to work.
Every day that passes I despise this lot even more. I notice we haven’t heard the phrase ‘we’re all in this together’ pass anyone’s lips of late. Even the monumental arrogance of this bunch of hoorays can’t disguise the fact that they’re making Thatcher look like a picture of humane altruism.
