Disability and the DWP

Visible to anyone in the world
Edited by Hede Maria Cavell, Thursday, 18 Nov 2021, 14:59

I wish to extend my support to those who are fighting the DWP with regard to the legacy payments.

I feel that the DWP has shown sheer contempt to those on benefits and especially people  with disabilities.  

 Due to the system being so complicated  by the powers that be, it is again those on the shop floor that get the backlash so that money can be saved. Time for the system to be changed so that everyone is able to follow the structure and understand  the  system instead of the few who benefit from making a fast buck  through the bonus system.

Hi Hede,

I don't understand why the government, don't tax the super rich, instead of cutting the money from poor disabled people, and causing them so much hardship.
