    I am sorry but i am not being rude it makes me sick when ppl have to judge you /
    I have it in black and white what they turned me down on and in it is well dressed and didnt rock to and throw on the chair this is why i am taking it to the tribunal as not all ppl with mental problems rock on there chairs !

    You are being rude because I am not making judgements but stating the facts.

    The reason you were turned down was because you did not score enough points and not because you were well dressed and did not rock. They are only observations the Doctor has made, please see my previous post.

    Thanked in error before.

    If you think that is being rude ?
    then so are you calling me a liar what is wrote on the paper /
    The doctors at that place didnt ask me any think about my illness how if effected me from day to day ?
    They just want to meet there targets getting ppl of the sick Il sooner sort myself out then get a job were i would lose it may be after a few day due to my illness
    But i do show willing by looking and applying for jobs i dont just sit on my back side all day ?

    By your own admission Cozza you would take a job if one came along. Therefore why do you believe you should be in receipt of a benefit that is intended for people who are unable to work?
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    I have not called you a liar, I have just explained the situation.

    You have failed because you did not score enough points not due to the observations of the Doctor unless they relate to the descriptors.
