Every 4 years since the Tories took office, they've tried to stop PIP to my friend's autistic brother, the entire family needs to step in and do work to ensure they don't take that away from him.
Weirdly, autism doesn't just "get better", but they keep doing it anyway. I'm sure this isn't the only story of this heartless nonsense.
Work you slugs, my profits are at risk
To be clear. What he actually claims is.
Cut immigration by forcing disabled people. Who we can assume have already been found unfit for work. Or they would be forced to work under UC. To be reevaluated and forced to find jobs.
The things forgotten.
One
The current UC WCA is far from lenient. To be found limited capacity for work. Takes a pretty strong requirement.
And has nothing to do with PIP. So many on PIP are already working. Universal credit is for non working people. Disabled or not.
Two
I doubt they forgot this. They just hope we will.
But the figures the show prooving an increase in claims.
Compare a period where DWP was rejecting PIP claiments by at least 60% falsely. And was continually challenged and lost in court. To a period years later when the previously rejected cases are being added to the totals.
