Universal credit is his baby, it is costing loads to implement and is miles behind schedule,PIP replacing DLA is causing major hold ups and problems too.
He has dismissed continually criticisms as to the issues of problems and has shown not a scrap of compassion as to some of the really bad cases of claiminats wrongly losing benefits.
Hos interview may have bee that bit more believable if he had used same to apologise to all those wit genuine disabilities and incurable and terminal illnesses who he has shown contempt to and largely for 5 years a least, ignored and dismissed their concerns.
I don't know is this is more about the EU than anything else,I have the same contempt for Cameron and Osborne as to the policies of IDS since they like him have ruthlessly always defended them and implemented same against the most vulnerable..
This man however,I wouldn't trust an inch.
For me it is just a pity he will be an even greater draw on the exit side as to the EU .
Why people like him when they resign just don't clear off totally,is beyond me.
However everytime I see now him for sure, I will feel the happier knowing I never agreed with his polices as Work and Pensions secretary and how happy I will be further in my decision to vote to stay in the EU too,very happy indeed to be on the opposite side of IDS,it reinforces I chose the right side.
Nothing I have heard him say today has altered in the slightest my total contempt for the man.
I also can believe he was a nightmare to work for too,he was a nightmare to deal with or anyone connected to care and support for the sick and disabled, with his arrogance and dismissing attitude, that is 'if' you could ever actually get to speak to him in the first place.
Horrible, horrible man and someone I hope never holds high office again in the UK,since he should never have been allowed to anyway, that shows terrible judgement on the par of this PM to that he was able to.
