Are dead people fit for work?

Postby Guest » Tue Mar 20, 2018 4:55 pm

A grieving daughter furiously handed an urn containing her mother’s ashes to a private health care professional who turned up to assess if the dead woman was fit for work, following an inexcusable and heartless blunder by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).

Louise Broxton had suffered a host of neurological problems for which she received welfare support. She tragically died from lung cancer at the age of just 47 in August.

Her daughter, Hatti, immediately informed the authorities of her mother’s death and all her benefits were cancelled. After initially saying the information had been placed on file, however, some seven months later the DWP sent an assessor to the door of her home in Wolverhampton to see if Louise was “fit for work.”

Since the Tories changed the remit of ATOS in August 2010, over 120,000 people who were either dying or very seriously ill were assessed as fit for work.
My 55 year old mum was one of them.
Even though she was on a dialysis machine for 10 hours a day (awake time) she was deemed fit for work.
We appealed and won.
Our local Tory MP made the right noises at the meeting with him but ultimately DID FUCK ALL.

This note by a foodbank user - disabled 68 year old John - brings home the utter heartlessness of Tory cuts. (via @SalfordFoodbank)

Most Tories couldn't give a fuck, less they fall on hard times themselves.
