Nasty Party targets the poor and vulnerable again. It’s a shame that they don’t show the same efforts in going after the corporates avoiding tax.
“And by taking verification out of the hands of GPs we’ll make sure they stay unverified”
Vouchers for shops instead of money and increased access to care for the worthy are not compassion.
are not compassion
Did they use the word compassion or did you introduce the word?
They said it - “fair and compassionate”. I can only assume they use a different dictionary to me.
Alongside the paper, Mr Stride also addressed the Commons, saying: “This government’s priority is to make sure that our welfare system is fair and compassionate. Fair on the taxpayer, by ensuring that people of working age who can work, do work, and fair on those who are in most need of the state’s help.”
The problem with vouchers is they can only be used in limited places. What we need is some kind of universal voucher that can be used anywhere to be exchanged for goods and services. Maybe we could put a monarch’s head on one side and some sort of famous scientist on the other or something. It needs a name that says you can use it all around, something that gives and impression of usage both round the corner and round the supermarket. some word that sounds like round maybe
Why don’t we just adopt the leaf as currency? There’s millions of them and they grow on trees.
Do you want deforestation because that’s how you get deforestation.
It seems like it would be quick and convenient to use - quick as a flash, perhaps? Also, it’s quite funny they’d not thought of this universal voucher system, it sounds like a winner! I wonder if the universal voucher could have alternate names too, rhyming with “flash” or “funny”?
Maybe I’m stupid but pip was only brought in just over ten years ago as a way to reform the system and prevent “scroungers and cheats” by the Tory’s, surely by pushing reform now that’s all but admitting they’re thick as shite and and they’re deliberately targeting vulnerable people. How does the electorate not see this?
More to the point. Pip is specifically designed to measure your indevidual ability to cope. Clear.y based on there attempt to ignore it.
He recently compared rejected results not to 2010 saying there is no way such a high % can pass now but not them.
Well that because the courts kept telling them they were breaking g the law whe they rejected folks around 2010.
nazi fuck
This is the best summary I could come up with:
After a massive rise in the number of adults reporting disabilities and claiming help through personal independence payments (Pip), the prime minister said those with “less severe” conditions should be engaged in the world of work.
The annual cost of the payment system is currently at around £22bn, and is forecast to rise by 50 per cent over the next four years as more people, including those with mental health concerns, qualify for the support.
In an interview with ITV’s Robert Peston, Mr Sunak said: “The broad thrust of what we’re trying to do is say, hang on, you can’t be making claims based on unverifiable assertions.
When pressed on the hardship that vulnerable people on low incomes would endure without Pip, he said: “That’s why it’s so important that we stick to our plan that’s easing the burden on the cost of living.”
Alongside the paper, Mr Stride also addressed the Commons, saying: “This government’s priority is to make sure that our welfare system is fair and compassionate.
Dr Sarah Hughes, chief executive of the charity Mind, said the proposal would “only make things worse” for millions of people struggling with mental health.
