THE FOLLOW ON

Well there is a report with a figure but it does not look right to me.

After the Disability Rights UK article in the last post suggesting that people were mostly happy with disability assessments a report was published with some number. That number is 4,000 or just so you do not think there is a typo, four thousand.

I had totally forgotten bout the Work & Pensions Select Committee of which I became involved letting them know of everything that went before and everything that was, or indeed was not, going on currently. After a cut down report they asked for more and stated they wanted to publish it. The late Michael Meacher MP also wanted to use my data in January 2013 and asked for permission to do so in the House of Commons to attack Iain Duncan-Smith. How long since IDS quit his job? This started long before I was asked by Michael Meacher if he could use my story. How long has this been going on then? How many times has the dishonesty of the DWP and their hetnchmen, like Atos and Capita, been reported? But they seem to be just catching them and reporting on them being dishonest now?! Do the court involved get there moment in the spotlight? After all you have to be incompetent to miss this for so long and if you did see it should have dished out some court orders to these people?

So .. most people were happy with PIP and ESA assessments were they? Four thousand complaints just in the weeks or two months at most after the Work & Pension Select Committee asked for them? This is not taking into account that most people would not have noticed the call for people to contact them, I nearly missed it myself. Nor does it take into account that these assessments have been complained about for several years beforehand.

Also and as someone pointed out on DPAC's Facebook page .. "Did anyone ask us?!" The answer is no .. they did not. Well done, Disability Rights UK for missing out that other disability chairities were not asked to ask their members. Where was the pinned request on DPAC's Facebook page, or Black Triangle's or Disability Rights UK for that matter?! I did not see one. In fact I cannot recall how I discovered it .. might have been messaged, notified or tagged by someone on Facebook? Might have stumbed across it on a webpage myself? Might have been emailed with the link from one disability group or another? I simply cannot recall.

So .. still being fecked over or not provided service and support by all the above. Just some little mention in some little article, all of which avoided like the plague by the TV News groups, that never gets followed up. Almost as if we were intentionally being mislead by those publishing some of these articles? You do have to ask yourself this question.

Oh and .. when your a disability assessor one question you can ask and get away with is this ..

"So when did you catch Down's Syndrome?"?!

Umm .. recall me banging on about how they are not qualified to assess disabilities and how they are not even general medical professionals not even to GP standard, let alone specialists?!

Well there you go .. another point I have been proven correct on.

THAT DAY HAS COME

Well, well, well .. what do we have 'ere then?

According to the story in the link below our beloved Atos .. have been taken to court and found to be dishonest about someone's assessment and ordered to pay £5,000 in damages?!

That is no less than sweet music to my ears and .. ooh yes please, I will take that!

If this occurred with me right now it would completely turn around the absolute mess they turned my life into and I can go right back to where I was and with all the tools I planned to buy but did not acquire .. by doing the job of the public services for them.

There might even be a certain .. person at Arrowe Park Hospital I might visit and state .. "Oh I do not get my money back do I for doing the job the public services are paid to do? Well lookee here and see that? Read it and weep .. arsehole!"

I am amazed it has taken this long for something like this to happen while at the exact same time wondering how they did it?

Yes I do have m own solicitor and I feel fortunate to have one after the very long search to find a representative for my case.

I am also wondering whether or not there will be more and also whether Capita and Maxima will be found guilty in time?

The disabled victim of Atos, Vanessa Haley from Huddersfield, stated the following interesting statement ..

“We are constantly being lied about, repressed and vilified. Many disabled people have become even further isolated by this system and have lost much, if not all of their care.”

The people behind the website, the Disability News Service, also made the following interesting statement ..

Disability News Service has been investigating claims of dishonesty at the heart of the PIP assessment system for more than a year, and has heard from nearly 300 disabled people who have made such allegations.

I can assure you that more than 300 people have complained about this. You only need to fnd the news story, which I posted about and linked on here, to find that they are reviewing 1.6 million disability claims.

I would like to see the name PIP, or Personal Independence Payments, gone! I would like the 'Personal' word replaced with 'Disabled' so that it becomes clear what it is for and that they give a shit about people with disabilities.

There was an interesting statement about the victim which was too close to home for me and sent a shiver down my spine ..

She now experiences “constant paranoia” about being misdiagnosed by GPs and other healthcare professionals. She has also begun self-harming.

The victim also stated the following, which was also a bit too close for comfort ..

 “It is rarely absent from my thoughts, and as a result my anxiety is through the roof.”

Well I previously stated that I felt like we was at the beginning .. of the end? After seeing and reading this on Facebook where it was posted on DPAC's Facebook page I am feeling more confident than I have been in a long time.

Fingers crossed now for everyone out there that suffers from a disability and who has suffered at the hands of these evil doers.

THE WHISPERS OF REASON

Well this is another black mark for the Tories and their evil plans and the stealth like schemes .. plus for their Puppeteers who must be uncovered at all costs.

Thousands of disability tests are branded as 'unacceptable' by the governments very own quality control scheme?

I never thought I would ever read that or that the government even had a quality control scheme?! I want to know where in the hell these quality control people have been for the last eight years and is it only because of Frank Field's valiant efforts and some crocodile tears that they have now come out and stated something?!

Who knows.

Atos and Capita have never even met their target once, according to the DWP’s current quality control scheme for Personal Independence Payments (PIP)

Bombshell new figures say neither Atos nor Capita – the outsourcing giants paid more than £500m to assess people for Personal Independence Payments (PIP) – are meeting the target of 97% of assessments conforming to standards.

Latest audits show 6.4% of PIP benefit assessments were deemed “unacceptable” in the three months to October 2017.

I would go as far as stating that they are well under for the figure of 6.4% in that last statement from the webpage below. Well, well, WELL below judging from what I have been hearing.

One Type 1 Diabetic I know constantly insisted that Type 1 Diabetics would not nor never be touched by the government and the DWP and insisted that DLA would not go.

Then one day a friend of his with the same condition has him got told he was being transferred over to PIP and had to re-apply all over again. That surprised him. That was around 6 to 8 months ago now.

A few weeks ago another friend of his with the exact same condition but actually missing a leg had his PIP stopped. He got it back on appeal but I could tell from his voice he was now getting a little worried.

A labour voter all his life and after listening to Katie Hopkins in a radio interview recently he stated to me on the phone "You were right. You were right about EVERYTHING!"

What did he do for a living?

Oh he was only a social worker for Camden Council for 25 years!

EDIT: As I stated in a comment in DPAC where I first saw this story ..

.. will it go anywhere though ad will it go far enough?!

THE BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE

I really couldn't think of a decent title and it's very late, or early depending on your point of view.

I put 'backwards compatible', provided I haven't thought of a better title before I finish, because of you wanted something 'backwards' the UK governments are 'compatible'! Lol.

Yeah it seems my old friends Atos and Capita who I have dearly wanted to meet for many years are back in the news.

It also turns out they were getting a couple hundred million more than some were expecting. I'll say that again, a couple of hundred million more, British pounds, than some were expecting.

This payment is for one some thing ... deceit.

These people are neither qualified in well over two thirds of their tasks nor honest.

They are encouraged to trick disabled people, who I might add is all that they see .. well the genuine ones at any rate. They assess disabled people.

Some I know want to lay blame for these greedy leeches of society and morons on the Tories. I do get annoyed when I hear that and make it very clear these people were already there doing this shit when Tony Blair was in power.

Which begs the $64 Million question...

Was it that Tony Blair was really a Conservative man at heart?

Or is it like many now suspect and that those we vote into power don't actually win the country and someone else does?

I will never forget running into a well spoken lady, could pass for middle-class and a fellow wildlife enthusiast and her exact words to me we "It's like there is a secret government within government?!" I always simply put it that someone other than the government we elect run the country, 'run' being arguable, and probably always have? One can only think of the monarchy after statements like that but there are other possibilities.

So if this is true and I have no doubts, then what does that mean?

Well first off we are paying for something else that makes no actual fucking difference to anything. 

They something costs a hell of a lot of money but, hey, at least it keeps us thinking it does something...

Our general election!

Funny how they are so ready to pay out many hundreds of millions of pounds to liars and cheats to help them lie and cheat so that they can leave a load of vulnerable people to rot, die or worse have regular mental breakdowns.

Here is an excerpt ...

The UK government had estimated that Atos and Capita would earn £512m for Personal Independence Payments (PIPs) assessments between 2013 and 2017.

Stunning how much of your money they are giving to not one but three companies made up of liars and cheats rather than vulnerable people, eh?

Yeeeeah ... except maybe I should point out that's just for one single benefit and it's the I've for disabled people sos ... I give you two choices ...

1) Are they singling out disabled people only? I mean, just how fecking bad would that look?

Or ...

2) Are those figures only about one fifth to one tenth what they pay out to shady companies? Because I'm under the impression there are around 6 to 7 benefits but others tell me it's more than that?!

So let us say there are ten? Is ten times that amount being paid out in total?!

Oooh.

I think there going to need a whole new raft of public relations people before very long?

Especially if I keep showing people for to view or approach things from different angles?

Oh dear.
