You keep mentioning that, I am talking about the sick and disabled people with cancer being told they should be able to do some work thanks to Ian Duncan Smiths foul re-assessments process.
Some live in nice houses because they have worked most of their lives to get same,
Then they are told to get out or pay even more because of the bedroom charge.
Even if they have dementia.
I came across a lady, who had dementia,had 2 bedrooms in her house, lived alone, she sometimes had a carer stay over some nights every week in the spare bedroom.
She has to pay £17 extra a week to stay in that house.
I have been to the re-assessments with people, not ALL are wasters as you seem to see them.
People who have worked all their lives then got dementia, being forced to re-assessment after re-assessment.
Having benefits cut because they forgot to answer the phone to someone calling them to discuss their benefits.
That goes on all the time.
You say that isn't happening because you haven't seen it,well I have and it is frustrating when people dismiss the sick and disabled as wasters.
They are the people I care about not fancy Ministers sitting in offices planning how to make the vulnerables lives even more traumatic than they already are.
