Sounds like someone is defrauding the system, doesn't it?

I assume you are a supporter of these vile plans?
If you are sick or disabled you will not be saying that when they come after you!!!
I assume you think it is right to attack and villify ALL genuine claimants as this government does. This propaganda and spin has been spread now for a few years, they are actively promoting hatred against a section of our society. Just like the Nazi's did.

I claim no benefits so either way I'm not affected but what I see is the government propaganda that is clearly lumping everyone on benefits as the same and promoting them all as fraudulent.
That's just not true though is it.
There are plenty who are genuine and I realy feel for those genuinely ill or disabled as they are suffering from a lot of predjudice and hatred.
The public has been fed this rubbish for so long they can't see past it if they don't know anyone who may be affected or are affected themselves.
In this day and age it's disgusting and against any other group would'nt of been allowed to happen or for so long.

Have you actually read the article?
People are being paid out for having some blisters....a cough. Some are claiming they cant go to work because they are "too fat".
Lose a bit of weight then!

You cannot expect any government to carry on pouring out money to people just because they want it.
The ones who are genuinely ill or disabled have nothing to worry about.

I can only assume that for one to get as angry over this as you are that you feel your situation isnt secure.

I wonder why.

If I could report your OP, I would. Wishing people were dead for implementing changed is very wrong!

Where has anyone said that ALL claimants are fraudsters?

You cannot show one single piece of evidence to back your claim up.

You have hit the nail on the head.
The british people have been brainwashed with this propagand now for so long, There's a saying " a lie if told often enough becomes the truth"
The government should be ashamed of themselves. this ammount of hatred would not be allowed against a religious group.

Of course i have read it.
The whole point is they are saying everyone who claims this benefit are cheats and scroungers which is NOT TRUE. This is the false image that is being "fed" to joe public, and unfortunately joe public are being brainwashed with these lies. What are your thoughts on the increased number of mental health sufferers commiting suicide as a direct result of these vile plans? Or is that OK, because the government have blood on thier hands.

Those dishonest people who have played the disability system to avoid work - and brought it to such an extreme situation that such checks and investigations have become necessary to weed out the workshy and ensure that the disabled continue to get what they need and that the country can afford to give them what they need.

Some people on IB can work, just not in the job they used to do. Others cannot work at all. In the past there has not always been a differentiation between these two groups and there hasn't been an independent assessment, rather than whether you fall in to one group or the other has depended on the relationship with your GP. I know people who are genuinely unable to work and I don't believe they'll be affected. But I also know people who've been given low rate DLA because they have to inject insulin once a day for diabetes which drives me gently mad.
