strichener Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 2 hours ago, NotThePars said: Except I've pointed out once you start putting stringent checks on benefits to weed out suspected scroungers you end up catching genuinely vulnerable people in the crossfire. This is what's been happening for the past 7 years of Tory government. Also blaming the Tory's ideological dismantling of the welfare state on benefit scroungers is heavy dull. So your solution is to have no checks and no attempts to curb people that "sponge"! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since you have been the recipient of tax cuts via increase personal allowance, can I assume that you have voluntarily donated all increases to the DWP to distribute to more needy recipient? You do realise that everyone that contributes to a pension, ISA etc. is avoiding tax? Although as long as you can throw the generic "tax avoiders and evaders" term about then your can post with a clear conscience and ignore the fact that you are personally one of these tax avoiders? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerberus Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 Jeremy Corbyn is such a feeble, vapid man. I'd go as far as to say that I am offended but him and his delusional, pipe dream liberalism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t1t3h Posted April 7, 2017 Share Posted April 7, 2017 So your solution is to have no checks and no attempts to curb people that "sponge"! An easy way that they could check if someone is genuinely ill or not is to contact the persons GP or doctor. Another way could be to request the persons medical records. Instead of the current situation where you often have to pay your own GP to write a letter to the DWP, only for an ATOS nurse to dimiss your doctor, neurologist, physiatrist or whatever other medical documents you have in favour or their own blatant lies and misrepresentation of your personal circumstances. The current system is an ideological attack on the most vulnerable in society, nothing more and nothing less. Disabled people don't and won't mind being assessed fairly, under this Tory government it is anything but fair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think there's a disabled person in the land that would object to having to provide a letter from their GP. I know of disabled people who have been made to feel guilty, nervous, ashamed and depressed through the then DWP and now PIP assessment process. A mate's mum who eventually won a tribunal got so bad with worry, she developed anxiety every time the postman arrived, couldn't sleep at night and had to be treated for depression. All because of how this Government treats actual disabled people. It's a fucking disgrace. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potassium Flouride is a bit harder to justify though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
