People on ESA who are in the work related group get an extra £30 a week over jobseekers to pay for any extra help they need in living and finding a job.

Now the Tories are going to cut that out so disabled people who may be fit to work get no extra help at all and are put on the same as jobseekers despite many disabled people needing extra funds to achieve the goal of living and finding work.

I don't know why they don't just build gas chambers. It would be cheaper in the long run.

you dont really think the tories and their friends are bothered about  disabled or vulnerable poor people do you, this ideology that they have is designed to destroy the social security system, all they wish to do is protect themselves and their friends in the establishment, banks , square mile, financial institutions etc, they will have list of what they call collateral damage somewhere in IDS offices.

Zazu, you are thinking about DLA/PIPS. You dont get a mobility car on ESA.

No, she said she needed the extra £30 per week for petrol because she can't walk

had dealings with atos through work.

i threatened to sue them when they said they lost some of my medical notes....needless to say they appeared pretty quickly.

another time i was off work due to stress..

ATOS....are you able to go tot he shops?
Me....yes i have to eat.
ATOS...well you can go to work if you can go to the shops.
Me.....^*%&^ &*&(^*^ (*^&^ F*** O**

think she realised i was only gonnaget more stressed with that tone of questioning which would have meant another 2 weeks off....so she went easy after that Laugh

£30 may be steep but then the car needs maintenance so 30 quid would be a bout right.

cantspell = such wit. 

Would you like to purchase a bag of punctuation, such as upper case letters and commas?

What filth would that be nutjob?

I've posted on these forums loads of times that I don't buy newspapers, and haven't done so for AT LEAST 15 years.

But being a moron, you ignore those posts.

You carry on reading the Guardian and the Beano, that's about your level.
