The Employment Support Allowance have been deliberately fecking me around.
I have sent in two applications just as I was instructed to do. The first one was sent via recorded delivery but they somehow managed to lose it.
I had a phone-call apologising and they then emailed me apologising and they sent me another application form with a pre-paid first class envelope.
The apology email is dated the 7th September and I called the next day and the application arrived the following postal day, I think the phone-call was a Thursday and it arrived Saturday I think. I then posted it Monday. Which would have been the 11th September 2016 and today is the 6th October 2016 and I have heard nothing. That was the SECOND application I sent off!
So today I have to go to a meeting for Universal Credit, which itself takes six weeks I now find out, because ... well I have no choice.
This was a bit short notice, the Universal credit people called me when my mother was here two days ago. They they rang me at 9am yesterday morning when I was otherwise indisposed, lol. I then visited my social worker friend and we went to Watford to pick up a clam shell. A real one and the whole time I thought that the UC, or JobCentre, would call again but they did not.
Then I got home yesterday and at some point in the evening I decided to check my emails and would you believe that I had an email from the JobCentre asking me to not only bet there the following morning at 10.30am but I had a bloody list of stuff to bring with me, including an up to date CV?! I had not updated my CV in bloody years and could not even find the damn thing. I managed to find a version of it altered to create one for someone else. I then spent an hour messing around with that as it would not display properly when I uploaded it to their site! *SIGH* I wish things did not sen me into such an excruciating panic mode.
I emailed the ESA on 29th September asking them if they had received the second application and if they are processing it and I have heard nothing at all.
How many applications are you supposed to fill in and send in and email them about before they are expected to get it right?! I would email their ICE Ombudsman but they are a waste of space too!
My very last PIP payment I am expecting to arrive either in two weeks time or six weeks time and as that is the second of the two benefits to have been cancelled I am up shit creek without a paddle.
Losing 60% of your money is not good enough for the 'we are in it together' brigade. No less than 100% is what they have gone for. Despite my various attempts to prevent this via British law they are managing to succeed.
Now I am hoping that this is going to go well and it is not going to be someone that takes no nitice and just stands behind you with a bloody whip.
I was told yesterday by someone that there sister is disabled and she was forced to do this for a bit and that the person she spoke to at the JobCentre was actually helpful which was a little encouraging. A little encouraging because it is the first time I have ever heard of anyone at a JobCentre being helpful and ... well the person helped was a woman.
It occurred to me as I woke up with an anxiety attack that I may not have posted up the emails?

Dear Graeme Vine
***********
I have sent in another application and it feels like it was
some time ago now, I have short term memory blanks and cannot recall certain
things most days.
I have a tribunal hearing tomorrow that I have had several
breakdowns over and I do not know why this is,, though it is part of my
condition. So keeping on top of other things has been hard, especially as HM
Court & Tribunal Service have sent me five letters, stating in three the
appeal is for ESA and in two others insisting the appeal is for PIPs.
Somewhat weird as I was asked to travel 22 miles to
Brentwood for assessment for PIPs while this was going on.
Because of this I suspect my PIP will be cancelled too and
yet another court case will start up but in the meantime if there is no ESA, or
everything is rigged and I lose and have to claim Universal Credit then there
is going to be a period of several weeks, to my reckoning, that I will be
without money altogether?
If you have no managed to lose a second application this
will make things much worse for me and the period of time without any money for
food a lot longer.
I phoned the number you gave me and I was sent an
application form with a first class pre-paid envelope so I thought I would have
received an acknowledgement before now?
Either that or I am losing track of time worse than I
thought
Yours sincerely

Dear Mr Haswell,
Further to our
telephone conversation today,
I am very sorry that
your original claim form has been mislaid.
Please call 0800 0556688
where a telephony agent will be able to take your details and forward your
claim directly to this office.
The agent will ask you
a variety of questions, including details of your incapacity and any medical
certification that you have been provided with.
I understand that you
wish to backdate your claim to ESA; provided that you have medical
certification for any backdated period, this will be considered for the three
months prior to the date you call the contact centre.
With the loss of your
original documents, I will also consider any entitlement back to 8 April (three
months before the date of your receipt), provided your medical certification
covers this.
Please quote my name
if this will help support your claim to benefit once received at this office.
Yours sincerely,
Graeme Vine | Employment and Support Allowance New Claims

Sorry I am not sure why I did not hear the phone
and missed your call?
I sent in a claim form just as the Citizen’s Advice
requested me to do.
Attached is a copy of the recorded delivery receipt
of the letter.
In all honesty this has been absolutely ludicrous
and I have been in an out of Doctors and hospitals and still have this ongoing
for the next few weeks and months, over things caused by the DWP and things
outside of the DWP’s actions.
My IB gets stopped, this is going to curt now and
while that goes to court I have had my rent payments stopped though now agreed
to restart them and now it is open season on my PIP claim too, so I guess that
will get stopped, another Mandatory Reconsideration and another appeal will be
ongoing wasting the taxpayers money?
Attached is the receipt from the recorded delivery
of said ESA application that I did because the attack on me has been so intense
and wide that I just figured my claim would get ... let us say ‘lost’?

Dear Mr Haswell,
Thank you for your recent
correspondence regarding your claim to Employment and Support Allowance (ESA).
I am sorry for the difficulties you
have encountered; your email was sent through from Stratford benefit Centre to
Basildon, who are now processing claims in your postcode area.
I attempted to contact you at

Rang our national claims line (0800
0556688) to make a claim; if so what date was this? If your claim was taken
over the phone, were you provided with a reference number (starting with 1-).
If you have any other details regarding this, please advise.
If you completed a clerical ESA
claim form, approximately when was this?
I have been unable to trace a
clerical or phone-based claim form; I am concerned that you have been
attempting to resolve your entitlement issues without success.

My bloody word … this
morning was the worst morning so far!
I was up around 6.30am,
not a good sign I will get to in a moment, and downstairs scouring a
very unusually slow Internet for help.
I have had this in the
past, I most likely mentioned previously, and it is one of the worst
feelings in the world and pain is preferable to this. I think this is
why people 'self-harm' because I have considered it both now and
previously. Along with the ultimate way to switch things off for
good!
Back when I had it
previously I had terrible trouble sleeping at all. Considering that
the Fibromyalgia Syndrome I suffer with fairly badly is because we do
not get any restorative sleep at all, this was not good. Of course at
the time I did not know it was Fibromyalgia despite the 7 years of
asking. I had to go and find out for myself and when I did realised
that my GP at the time knew what I had as had everyone I had seen in
the NHS for two years previous to this.
So at the end of the
day I was left to rot, in pain physically in over a dozen places,
terribly embarrassing symptoms, memory that fails to function and
with anxiety that made you want to take your own life. Yeah I got
angry with the system because I realised it cheated and was full of
people with no heart, feelings, compassion or capable of regret.
Every single little
thing you need to do starts to become a 200 Meter Olympic sprint!
Every time you think of something you have to do and I mean anything
… the anxiety strikes. Every time. You think about shopping you
need, a bill you have to pay, having a bloody bath or shower?!
If you go to any site
catering for mental health issues it will have a list and one that is
always present is 'You find normal daily activities difficult'. Or
something to that effect.
Combine that with 6
foot pains, knee pain, back pain along with embarrassing sudden
vomiting flaky skin and with the worst possible embarrassing thing I
rarely mention second only to being drugged to unconsciousness and
taken to the high street and waking up there naked.
It is something that
you wont want to admit but that you can .. involuntarily .. do, do to
yourself?
Then add memory loss
that occurs several times each day.
So this morning was
really bad .. I am not one for self-harming, previously going
straight to suicidal and sort of have, but I wondered if there was
some relief in it today. Because …
I left the house to
drop off some cheap coffee to a store owner I know. After a bit of a
chat and telling him I might admit myself to hospital, though asked
myself why I would bother. I also had en Employment Support Allowance
application form that the Citizen's Advice … oh crap, .. right I
have emailed the Citizen's Advice Bureau. I had forgotten to do it.
Same old, same old.
I took an ESA claim
form to the Job Centre as was instructed by the Citizen's Advice but
they refused to take it as I have an ongoing thing with them. They
guy also told me that Employment Support Allowance was only a
temporary benefit and that people had to be re-assessed. Interested
now that he said that I asked the guy how often do people have to be
assessed? He said “Every 13 weeks” and I said “Where? Here?!”
and he said “no, an outside company does it” and I replied “oh
you mean companies like Atos?” he made some remark about how they
are not so involved in it anymore but basically said in a roundabout
way that it was. A company like that. I then stated that it was
stupid to drag people with disabilities all over the place every 13
weeks if they had conditions like mine that were incurable. He made
some of the crap excuses, jobsworth stylee, and I could have told him
that I know they have asked people and me to go places like Ilford
and even Chelmsford in London boroughs. Itt is not really worth the
effort and mostly they do not have the common sense to agree with
what you say anyway, despite how bloody obvious it might be.
I was in pain and
feeling somewhat … out of it, or stoned even, as I was getting
about but the pain seemed to have an effect at lowering the anxiety.
Due to this and realising it had, had this effect previously I wanted
to continue walking until I died.
I then thought 'perhaps
this is it? The reason people self-harm? Perhaps I should try it?'
Anything .. absolutely anything is better than this!
Except perhaps the pain
I was getting in my stomach recently? My GP held to fingers, I think
it was, into my waist on my right flank and asked me to cough.
Something hit his fingers that was not supposed to, apparently. Hence
why I am still awaiting one more hospital letter.
Each time I have grief,
pain from my stomach, anxiety attacks and difficulty getting about I
ask myself why it cannot be something that just kills me. Though this
is still a real possibility from the blacking out and falling
unconscious for ten to twenty minutes at a time. Find out at some
point in August, possibly.
I literally thought
this morning about walking in front of a bus or a lorry but this
would not be fair on the driver and witnesses on any bus. Would be a
harrowing thing to put people through.
Good God, I wished I
had known I was still capable of having these anxiety attacks! Also
about any threat to my home!
Hmm .. I am finding
something out for the first time now! I shall explain ..
Now first off for a
time and was about to look for someone I could talk to about certain
things .. my blogs for starters. I had an idea to start my own
business some years back and even way back then, before they kicked
me off wrongly for 7 years, I asked for help.
I do not have to tell
you this as many others, albeit begrudgingly at times, will tell you
or admit that I am not only good at what I do but also how many
things I can do and know about. Well I do have thirteen blogs and do
not cover every topic I am into or know about.
I have also thought
about doing something part-time, which really is all that I could
handle with my conditions but I do have to be careful over certain ..
things. No one wants to sit on their arse doing nothing all day and I
certainly don't. I even thought about asking the Citizen's Advice on
my next meeting with them about this … is like a kind of help,
advice and support role?
This is all proved
because of the existence of my blogs which also show what I can do.
I would dearly love
something to do .. I really would and struggle to find things to do
most days, as the weather is crap as opposed to good where I would be
out and about on my bike with two cameras, one a massive 83x zoom
Nikon and the other a waterproof camera that is more or less
identical to a GoPro.
I cover both these
purchases on my blog and my YouTube channel.
Well I was surprised at
the pressure that the DWP and their ESA were putting on people and I
decided to go and have a look around the Internet.
The
good bit: they can offer wellness classes such as walking groups,
CBT, help with CV preparation, training to change occupation - all
sorts of things.
This was an interesting
part of a web-page I was looking at.
The
other group of people on ESA will have been placed in the Support
Group (a misnomer in my view, as they don't get any 'support')
because they are deemed too ill/disabled to participate in any work
related activity.
This was another
interesting one but I am so negative about these people, hear so many
bad stories and have heard them lie to others, to me and even on TV a
few years back. Documentary about Job Centres that claim they have
lots of jobs but were proved to be all fake. Turned out to be very
old jobs but pretended that there were jobs so that they could screw
people on benefits that were actually looking for work!
This is so wrong to the
point that everyone ever associated with this that carried out this
shit should be fired on the spot. I would love to have a Job Centre
to go to, to genuinely speak to someone about help. Tried it when I
was registered disabled several years back and they told me that
despite me being disabled there was no help available?!
Well that shows how
much they cater for people with disabilities looking to either work
or start their own business?! Fan … tastic! Not!!
You
need good medical evidence for any appeal, and it needs to be
specific to the grounds of your appeal, not just saying you have
Lupus. It is not about your condition(s), but about the functional
difficulties you have because of the condition(s).
Annnd … worrying.
If you have a condition
then it comes with problems, symptoms and implications. Including
Lupus and I find it strange that they mention this because I know of
someone, a friend's sister, who has this. She was on DLA and like me
and tens of thousands of others was kicked off. Also just like me she
fought for years, not as long as I at 7 years, to get it back and
did. When I mentioned to this friend that the DWP were singling me
out yet again and now going after my Incapacity Benefit she told me
they were doing the exact same thing with her sister, yet again?!
She even had an MP help
her and write to and complain to the DWP! I think the MP even
accompanied her on a visit. Now that is an MP I would like and would
also like all MP's to be like. Not just swanning around with on
overflowing feeling of self-importance!
The
good bit: they can offer wellness classes such as walking groups,
CBT, help with CV preparation, training to change occupation - all
sorts of things. It does not involve being told to apply for jobs.
They cannot ask you to do anything that would make your condition
worse. There is really nothing to be afraid of. If they push you in
a direction you are not happy with, complain to their manager and
complain to the Jobcentre.
The good bit about
that? “They cannot ask you to do anything that would make your
condition worse.' The webpage.
Apart from asking a guy
that can have a potential two dozen black-outs per day, in constant
pain and on loads of medication for it, forgetful beyond belief and
can do,do oneself or vomit all over someone to drag his arse across
London to submit to a medical assessment!
It is literally a
contradiction. So your disabled and they ask you to travel several
miles on several public transport vehicles so that you can have a
medical assessment to see if your fit?
If you Do turn up then
your fit and if you don't … they cancel benefits, despite being
accepted as disabled a year previously? For an incurable and
degenerative disease?
Dr Kirkham at Guy's
Hospital told me, and audio recording of it on here, that he has
patients that are quite literally bed ridden! I really, really did
not want to hear that.
He told me that he
could tell I had, had Fibromyalgia a long time as I had worked out
that cycling is good as you need light exercise and that you cannot
do too much nor too little. The latter is one of many reasons why I
could only manage something part time but even that would scare the
crap out of me.
I do not want to be
sitting on my arse all the time, I do not want to be in pain all the
time and nor do I want to be bed ridden!
Over doing things
normally shows up, not immediately which is the weird thing, 24 to 72
hours after the over-doing it. Or more accurately 'flare-ups'. This
can come in any number of forms and simultaneously too.
So I have no issues
with doing something .. part time but it has to be somewhere I can
reasonably get to by a single bus and not in busy hours or by bike.
If the latter then somewhere to place my bike is obviously a must.
There are many things I know about and therefore many things I can
do.
Be bloosy typical if
they placed me in the Lea Valley Park Authority?! I would like
working with and for nature but I have a little bit of a history with
them on here. I know they are on a bog con, plant British Orchids and
then probably go to each local authority the park runs through and
asks them each for £Millions.
They are also really
bad at park management and I have lost count of the number of people
I have spoken too that live locally to the Lea Valley Park, some even
knowing a thing or two about nature who complain to high hell to me
about their management, or lack thereof. I have even given them some
free advice that they ignored but did reply to my email and told me
lies about areas of the park being all natural. This particular bit
has not only pond liners running underneath the ponds but also a
tough liner running several hundred metres! I kid you not.
So the ESA have this
WRAG thing, Work Related Activity Group? Sounds good as long as these
people have a helping hand and not a cattle prod to force you with.
I notice they have CBT
which will be for sufferers of mental health problems? Yeaah … CBT,
or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, is good in theory … except you
have three problems …
It does not
always work
It generally
is for people who stress out over spilt milk and not those that
suffer attacks over pretty major issues
Any medical
professional in the mental health areas think this CBT is like some
sort of magic when in fact it is nothing more than snake oil … or
placebo effect mechanism
I belong to the latter.
Nothing will help you until that major threat goes away and you are
re-assured that all is well. Or it is proved to you.
With CBT you are given
tasks to do … you know … tasks that are not important and you
have difficulty doing the mundane normal daily activity ones? Yeah …
that is stupid. How can I concentrate on a series of tasks when I
have one driving me towards suicidal thoughts? The feelings do not
stop until the threat is gone or you take medication for it.
Now if you were
extremely unfortunate to be someone that has to live with what I am
experiencing all the time and without any major threats of being
homeless or starving to death … yeah Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
might work in a good number of cases?
I found that with some
strong believers of CBT that if you cannot focus on it then their
attitude is that you obviously do not want to help yourself so they
cannot be bothered with you. If we could help our bloody sevles then
we would not have gone to them in the first place!
Someone really needs to
sit each of them down and explain how the Internet works and that you
can find out just about anything .. for free. I know because I have
been using the Internet and had email addresses as far back as 1997.
1996 even when I did my Access To Computing course.
Now on the Fibromyalgia
Action UK site it states that the DWP, or rather the assessors, are
treating Fibromyalgia sufferers unfairly and are requesting people
contact them with their experiences!
PIP
claimants are being forced to travel long distances to unfamiliar
places in order to have a face-to-face medical assessment, due to a
shortage of assessors and assessment centres and a computerised
booking system which ignores claimants needs.
The inconsistencies of
the DWP over Fibromyalgia being a disability has run for years …
ask them outright and they state that it is. In a support group I
attended but keep forgetting to attend any other for the last ten
months or more I was the only one with a walking stick. Lol.
In the group there were
teachers that did not realise it was a disability and was having
trouble coping with her teaching job. She was advised, while I sat
there, by another group member who worked for a local council,
possibly Enfield, that they local authority and school need to cut
dowen her days so that she could cope. She was often reduced to tears
over her condition.
She showed absolute
surprise it was classed as a disability and when she asked the lady
advising her if she was sure everyone in the room said simultaneously
“Ooh yeah, it is!”
Hi
Lisa, i have fibro and i am getting DLA it took me a while to get it,
i was refused untill i was asked to go to a medical by the DHSS and
asked for a home visit, after this visit i re- aplied and had no
problem getting it.
Some
people get turned down more than 3 times but just keep appealing the
eventually you should get DLA.
All
of the best, keep your chin up
CHORLEY
Here
is an example of someone getting DLA for it, though I was refused
despite having a rare form that affects my feet along with other
things.
I
applied once for DLA with two spine curvetures, a hernia,
fibromyalgia and irritable bowel syndrome got turned down have not
bothered since, Then my medical for being on ESA consisted off
wriggle my fingers and toes gently then raise both hands to touch my
shoulders slowly and gently , bend forward three inches slowly and
gently, lay down on a couch provided and lift my foot 3 inches off
the couch ... I was not let to be able to speak each time I tried to
speak I was loudly spoken over I knew within the first very few
minutes this medical is a complete fix
There a lot of stories
like that one .. a lot.
Basically the DWP and
government want to save money and they are bing opportunists and if
your being opportunists to that extent and the experiences are as
different from person to person with the same condition then they are
not being fair and obviously not medical specialists.
Surely there is a law
for pretending to be medical specialists?
If I bought a house,
spent money making it look like a GP Surgery and advertised as a
private General Practitioner or even a specialist … without
qualifications of any kind I am damn sure I would go to prison at
some point.
Yet time and time again
with plenty of medical professionals around the sufferers to get
things from you have to be and be assessed by people without
compassion and without medical knowledge or even an understanding of
conditions. Be that understanding cold and clinical or warm and
compassionate.
Hmm it seems that
according to the Fibromyalgia Action's website there is going to be a
documentary about people with Fibromyalgia which is a high profile
programme looking at disability benefits and the impact the changes
are having on people's lives?
On the following
Fibromyalgia Action webpage are a few instances of people with
Fibromyalgia and even one celebrity model, Jo Guest, who speaks about
the illness ruining her life and career.
I will have to look out
for that documentary about Fibromyalgia and see if I can get someone
to tape it for me? Maybe it will appear on YouTube? Ooh that is an
idea?! I can search for Fibromyalgia on YouTube!
If your treating people
that have the same illness differently then you are discriminating
against them in another way. It is as simple as that. Whether this is
race or class or even unemployed people it does not matter. A Single
Honours Degree in Applied Computing and turning down a PhD working in
the world of medicine does not win you any brownie points!
Now I have mentioned my
memory loss, known as Fibrofog, and I have stated very clearly and
repeatedly that I fully understand the frustration people get with
Alzheimer's Disease even the early stages. Your loss of memory causes
stress, irritation and anger.
In the video above one
woman states that she was experiencing memory loss to the point that
she thought and was scared that she had Alzheimer's.
It also states that do
not understand it and there is NO CURE for it, as I explained to a
warm and lovely lady at the DWP who phoned up someone with memory
problems asking them why they did not do something. Hence I get angry
and I did with her. She denied it when I said they clearly had no
knowledge of Fibromyalgia at all and were not capable nor qualified
to assess anyone with this debilitating condition.
This is why I have
never been shy about showing my frustrations and anger because you do
feel this all the time and you simply and scientifically cannot turn
it off. We really wished we could.
How about one woman
that starts of in tears over the constant pain? Well look at this
shorter video on Fibromyalgia Syndrome …
Umm … WOW!
The lady crying talks
about not being able to handle heat and feels hot to the point of
burning all the time. She also states that she has two air
conditioners, something I have stated several times I would die for,
but still has trouble.
That is the first time
I have heard anyone mention trouble with being hot like me!
Another one mentions
Restless Legs Syndrome which I have along with the much rarer
Restless Arms Syndrome. I think these are basically the same thing
and if you are bad then you get it in the arms as well as the legs. I
would like to bet that only arms affected is extremely rare or even
non-existent?
One states that people
with Fibromyalgia require a lot of care and attention … yeah and I
live on my own! I have stated so many times on my blogs and to
Doctors how hard it is living on my own.
The very short version but there can be up to 200 odd symptoms ... hard to believe andd was for me but when I went through a checklist of every possible FMS symptom I had close to 120, though when Guy's Hospital diagnosed it they disocvered my right knee was a separate and physical issue. Go figure!
Do you know sometimes I just have to sigh in despair?
No matter what people never cease to amaze me and they do not do their research or check their facts before starting how things are.
Now maybe I have something very, very wrong here and if so and just as I always promise I will hold my hands up and say I am wrong. After all it had been six months, lol!
Now as I understood it all the benefits were being phased out, with the secret agenda being too remove the weird disability from the welfare state despite not having the property infrastructure or support in place to make this fair. Feck me they do not even want to cure you, treat you or give you the correct drugs and yet still stand behind you with that Cat O' Nine Tails and people still don't get it even when you spell it out.
When the benefits were all phased out they were to be replaced with just two, Universal Credit and Personal Independent Payments, UC and PIPS.
Now I either have this completely wrong, in which case someone previously reported it wrong but do not remember who, or this reporter at the BBC is reporting about something that everyone else had seen as defunct and useless for sometime now?
I mean this change to the welfare state had been an issue since the Tories got into power and a general election is due in less than a year, so it's a fairly outdated!
My own argument over this reform was not over the fact there was a reform, I indeed thought it seriously needed it and could not remain how it was, no it was that they were going to make things worse by conning money from the poor instead of streamlining a seriously inefficient and wasteful Department of Work and Pensions. Also it should be chest to all by now that I am utterly stunned as the modern day attitudes that have spread to all public services that instead of doing things properly and efficiently to save money it is best to lie, cheat and manipulate everyone resulting in an almost zero service in each one that is paid for by the taxpayer that only hero's those that have far too much money and do everything NOT to pay their taxes?!
If having a disability is black and being fully fit is white then where are the shades of grey?
They seem to view hate handing out taxpayers money to help support those that are disabled, jobless and poor but have no issues whatsoever with taking over ten times that much before considering the expenses when their sole purpose is to chest the poor out of money?
It absolutely makes me want to hang my head in utter disappointment when I meet or hear of people that do not see that! I just write simply do not understand it.
It is not about having opinions.
It is not about being right.
It is about the truth and being fair, that is it and that is all!
Now if strong willed and opinionated people seem to thinks it's perfectly OK to force their options into others without an one of understanding for that which your arguing about you also should consider ... THE AUDIENCE!
The Internet today is an absolutely massive window where you can both advertise your wares and stand on your soap box. When standing on your soap box you have a crowd of people paying attention. But as more and more people arrive your soap box gets inevitable higher. So the basic mathematics can be out into simple layman's terms thus ...
1 The more you speak ( or in my case add provide evidence, paper work, recorded audio and all others) ...
2 The more people come
3 The more they discover about both me and what really goes on and ...
4 The higher my soap box gets
In mathematics and in computing you have two types of data, one is known add CONSTANTS which speaks for itself really add it never changes.
The other is known as variables and these are dynamic meaning that they ... CHANGE.
In the case of this blog, or any big that I write to I am the constant because I stick to the facts. This way the hope is that visitors over time start to see this and realise if I get it won't I hold my hands up. That is, of course, provided I am speculating and if I am not you can take what I type to the bank!
The variables are the numbers that are produced from the blogs, now these can either stay dead level, a very tiny possibility that would require several years of no posting at all and this ismy area, unfortunately for Google, so this is a given. The time might be different but I often find myself reading a website and then thinking this sounds old, look at the date and it is from 2009 or earlier which is 5 years ago.
Ergo people can be visiting the blog years from now while I might not have posted a damn thing?! SDI that is what it takes for visitors to drop off to nothing, bloody years!!
Right that should be chest enough and easy enough to take on board, lol!
But the whole time I post my blog posts climb ever higher up a search engines list, ergo mitre and more visitors see the link and subject and if it is of interest to them then they click on it. My numbers do not go up for appearing in a list, or search engine results, only if people are interested and click on said link! Got it?! Lol!
So I post and the numbers go up, not down but up. Add time goes on the amount it goes up gets higher and higher and I have explained this before. But some do not get it and I simply do bit know why and they just do not see their mistakes, lol.
Now a few nights back I was given some information that, and I mean this most sincerely, blew me away and left me completely humbled, but wondering if feeling humbled was correct.
I was told that I had 493,000 followers. I was simply stunned to hear this and immediately questioned it's validity. I was assured of the figure and what it was for. But even so had it been only total visitors across the board I still would have disbelieved it and felt humbled.
I stated tonight to someone I know about this and some have not quite grasped it. After revealing the figure I them mentioned someone famous, in the UK and likely several other countries and someone I follow and admire and mentioned in here. I said to this guy "now do you think I would have as many followers as him?" to which he laughed and said "well no, I would not have thought so" to which I said "well actually I have double that amount despite not being at this for two years yet!" he was surprised to hear.
I then explained that this was why I had trouble believing it!
Of course I always knew I would get to these figures, unless I felt like people preferred to live in ignorance and I was wasting my time and stopped before hand. I just never thought it would be this quick to that figure! Even just visits alone I would not have expected this until very late 2014 at the earliest and up to a year after that.
When I say living in ignorance I will explain how I see this because there was a surprising scene in a film that explained this in a round about way. The film was The Avengers or Avengers Assemble if your in the UK like me, lol.
The scene is where Loki, God of Mischief in Norse Mythology and brother to Thor, the God of Thunder. He had just acquired the scan of someone's eyeball so that Hawkeye, played by Jeremy Renner, can get into a vault ... umm to steal something I cannot recall, lol.
Loki dies this in a rather violent manner at an event whereby it seems that the rich and powerful are in attendance with all the pretentious stuff that cones with an event like that. Everything moves outside and Loki orders the group of hundred or so people to kneel. He then rants about how the kneeling and cowering is our natural state and we want to be ruled.
Of course any one watching with a heroic streak and do-gooder tore nature wants someone to kick his arse. So the soldiers, with a demi God our two, turn up to do what the cowering people are not prepared to. Kick his arse. Only just before this happens one man stands up and makes a stand to Loki starting that he had seen his ilk before.
I sometimes wonder if their was an intended statement in their? The man looks out of place with this crowd being old, ordinary and looking like he was walking home in a raincoat. Everyone else were replete with dinner jackets and evening dresses or similar attire.
I thought how similar this was to reality and that when it comes down to making a stand and being tough those with the lives of luxury ate the last ones to make a stand. It takes someone who looks like he was walking past outside to stand to where all else do not.
They're are many films with similar scenes to this and one of the most famous is Die Hard.
Obviously the writers were thinking something when they wrote that scene?
So what sort of psychology occurs with the ones quick to kneel? Better to just accept the forceful nature of a being whose power and resources are greater than their own? Better to keep you head down or risk it being blown off?
The odd thing is I see this in people a great deal when the dangers could not even be classed add that. In fact I think those in this situation may refer to it as 'stress' or 'aggro' and claim they do not need it.
The of thing is just add America is the only country that had this gun problem of some murderous nutter shooting and killing innocent people, or even bit so innocent people, who fail to realise that no matter what this is wrong, British people are the only one that had this self protection thing going on over a bit of, in their own words, 'stress' and 'aggro'! At the same time they have ideas that they utter that are so mad and of the mark that they have had drummed into them by idiot politicians for years that they actually believe their crap!
What is also unique about the British is that they switch like the wind depending on what they are going through. When the stress and agro gets to much they start talking about the things that the member if the public in other countries do on a semi regular basis. But that is ask they do, talk about it. As far as actively doing anything the feeling guess away and you ate back to the statements you hear the most whereby one is starting things that sounds like they are shagging George Osborne or the other one is also something the British government, sorry governments, love by saying "You can't win, you won't ever win!"
Suddenly your brain, oh OK my brain, is trying to deal with the switch which may be in a few weeks, a few days and on some occasion a few bloody minutes!! Lol!
So I see it that the powerful and the politicians see us like the kneeling people in that scene with Loki. When we are stressed enough we wave or fists in the air declaring our anger but before long revert into a submissive role. Of you stress out one person enough then any think he or she may do in retaliation or fun the flipping out is OK because no one week join he or she and they have lots of labels and punishments to stick all over the individual when they do act.
In essence this is the message that this blog was intending to attempt to convey, to make people think mitre clearly, get the facts (ergo the truth) right and stop flipping to and fro like your trying to watch several soap operas at once. You will never, and I do mean NEVER, get anywhere like this and nothing will change. If you do bit change then things do not change.
Now look at the world as it is. Look at what we have done and think about where we are going?
Now ask yourself one thing ...
If nothing changes what future does the human race have?
Or maybe the question would be more accurate if it were ...
If nothing changes what horrors does the human race face?!
An odd little BBC Report whereby there is a key line in it. Well that is other than the scaremongering within the report and I am not sure who is responsible for it.
I will not go into the scaremongering line which also single handedly states that everything that had been stated by the government for several years is complete bollocks.
What I found key is how it states that on the mentioned benefit, ESA, that larger numbers were expected claimed for it.
Odd as I was reading an article in the free tabloid of Metro where Esther McVey states that tens of thousands, might have been hundreds of thousands, of people have taken up this new businesses enterprise thing.
Now I was speaking to someone today about this and we both agreed that whenever something like this was introduced it always ended up a con to save money and not something to genuinely hero add claimed.
Now within the report you will see a line that almost appears to have been written in response to my own claims on here?! But I have stated in here before hand and many times that there is no genuine help. It had gotten worse and they are forever trying to play it down. They starred that more and more people see benefits as a permanent stop?
They really show how stupid and naive they are, saying things like this and then starting others that contradict themselves.
If people are using benefits as a permanent stop then it shows that there are many things wrong within society. It is a long list and had been this way for quite sometime now. I have repeatedly told these people this for years. But just like the system it's all broken and the important data just completely fails to get through. Or its just dismissed by those paddling feverishly towards the edge of Niagara Falls?
Too many people not wanting to listen, insisting they are right and still refusing to admit it or change when their methods are down to be a jumbling bag of mad cats mixed up with a dozen frogs.
But the numbers are supposed to be dropping and this us what they repeatedly say? More people in jobs and now tens of thousands starting their own businesses? The latter was not a good idea to encourage people to do in all honesty, unless you have improved wheat your idea of help is? I seriously doubt that!
Encouraging, or more likely FORCING, tens of thousands of people into starting their own businesses (what is it you harp on about others doing? Borrowing?) at a time when many businesses have been going bust and also bankruptcies involved too.
No but as long as you can say you have not been borrowing, eh?
Are you going to provide the money if their businesses they were forced to open down to you, Tories of course I am referring to?
...well they will when they read the email I have now sent to them!
Of course I have put it here and pasted below.
But I was a little shocked today after lambasting the DWP in several emails that when I got home I found a letter from them. Only it was NOT from them! It was from the dreaded, evil, conniving Atos and I could not believe after eveything I put to them that they would even SUGGEST that Atos and I come into any kind of contact ever again?!
I did think that it MIGHT be a possibility laster on in the claim but thought that the condition I now have would prevent that.
Still it will be good to have another go at Atos as I am sure so many visitors on here woule be overjoyed to watch them get attacked by me every which was but loose?!
Also and long with the letter there was a form and I thought, oh it is the Personal Independent Payments form, except it is not?! It has the letters ESA on the name of thr form and this is what made me email them and I have ripped them several new ones. I have told them how NHS England are now panicking because they got told by my last GP that I have beev recording them and I am sure that the GP Surgery told them that if THEY go down they will take the NHS along with them!
But you read the email I sent them below and I am sure haters of Atos and the DWP are going to get a bloody good laugh out of my choice of words...first the letter and form and then the email...
Dear Sirs
[NI NUMBER]
Before I go into one of my usual rages whereby I name call and then explain how I am going to dismantle your oganisation along with other piece by piece with many fall guys ending up in prison I want you to fist explain the following to me?
Why have I receieved an Employment Support Allowance form and WHY fo I have a letter with YOUR name upon it?!?!
I cannot believe anyone would be so arrogant, over-confident and incompetent enough to even hint at myself and any representative from Atos meeting face to face, not after what I exposed you of doing which is lying, cheating and defrauding!
I DO hope you have some very good excuses because I have been extremely busy since we last correspondended to prove how this latest form of corruption was all linked up!
I knew all along it was via the NHS and I am the sole reason you have had such bad press and my website teaches people how to catch you out. It also has 70GB of data and much of it recorded evidence of Doctors, GPs and Specialists lying. In fact my data has been used in the House of Commons via one MP I know of, Michael Meacher MP and his wife Baroness Meacher, to attack Iain Duncan Smith over both you and the DWP. That has been going on since January 2013! Since then I have acquired 100,000 visitors and have been thanked by a great many people and now I attract 2,000 new visitors each month and this rises.
I now only have evidence of the conspiring to give your organisation a helping hand in screwing over disabled people but I have had it from the mouths of the Doctors themselves and we are not talking about one Doctor here. How about 5 GP Surgeries and SIX hospitals and no matter what you thought you could get away with it is now over. It is not a matter of IF but a matter of WHEN.
Indeed let me explain to you so that you are under NO false impressions whatsoever...
There was a concerted effort to trick me and discredit me for the last few years, I saw it coming and even expected it and it failed miserably. A number of Doctors and Specialists did an about face on a diagnosis and eventually I got one Doctor admittig he lied about an ultrasound scan.
I was FULLY EXPECTING THIS which is why I was secretly recording it and every single meeting, appointment and even PHONE CONVERSATION I have had for well over three years now!! Then when it appeared they were losing there was a conspiring between the GMC, I also fully expected, and the NHS to have me listed as violent and kicked off my last GP Surgery register?! My GP vefore that one who you or the DWP wrote too either found out what I knew or was asked to lie because she QUIT and closed her practice effective immediately and TOOK something of mine with her, protection no doubt as she felt she was being set up?!
So one quit for some reason, being asked to lie or losing agains mt I do not know, while the next GP had me kicked off the surgery. Only what none of them knew was that I KNEW what was going on and I was manipulating the entire situation as well as everyone involved to get the EVIDENCE that I wanted. So then I raised an OFFICIAL complaint, which I also knew would go NOWHERE, and I received two reports and one from NHS England and one from the GP Surgery with lies and misinformation in black and white. Re[eating the misinformation I was provided about frugs, the lies, the accusations towards me about sanity and violent. That was a huge backfire because I was already listed as completely sane and competent and as I stated to the GP at that time..."Huh! Funny that?! You stopped DLA for mental health sufferes 3 years ago when I was having a nervous breakdown at the time, I know because the Psychiatrist told me, and now you just want to label everyone as mad no that no one has to pay to support them!" Oops!
Well after receiving the REPORTS I then dropped in a nine page letter to my last GP thanking them for giving me the lies in black and white and that I had indeed been recording every single visit with them so they are buggered every which was but loose! As is every Doctor I was ever sent to for the last few years involving a Dozen Doctors and Specialists.
I have been posting all this on my blog for the last eighteen months while keeping a low profile, as I am aware of your tactics of closing things down that try to tell people the truth about you, and I made the recordings, scans, screenshots, letters, emails and video all freely downloadable and to keep it just ion case the twisted British Law was used to hide the truth yet again. It is plain to see on my blog that I only deal with facts. I never gave anyone else that nine page report except the GP that deregistered me.
After leaving Barnet Hospital one day I receieved a call from NHS England. A lady told me that she was phoning me to do a survery regarding the complaints procedure. I knew that this was NOT a survey! She was fishing to find out what I thought of the two reports I receieved and I lambasted them. NHS England had quite obviously been contacted by my ex GP Surgery and broke the news that for the last four years I had been leading them down a garden path but with GENUINE REASONS only to entrap them not once but for FOUR WHOLE YEARS!! Also that the whole time I was doing this I was publishing it AS I DID it online and therefore a large section of the public KNOW the truth and that this truth is SPREADING. FAST. Well at about 2,000 per week and rising right now but this figure will itself rise faster when the weather warms up and people start meeting up and socialising.
Oh yes and I have a number of people follow me too and there are journalists, reserachers for journalists, Authors and literary agents!
As for that phone-call from NHS England and after I made it clear what I thought of the reports I was then told that they had now been RETRACTED and this would be sent to another division to be dealt with?! Rather odd that because the report that I have right here of which you can see ON MY BLOG clearly states that IF I wanted to continue with the complaint I would have to go through the PHSO. Now not only did I already know this with the PHSO but that I had already corresponded with them previously whereby they had been sarcastic and will pay for that and now have the two reports in their hands along with my own reports. Oh yeah and I know that they will do nothing too!! But I have made it extremely difficult for them to do nothing of which I am rather proud.
NOW THEN! I may as well mention that you and the NHS are not the only ones I have been covering and in fact a large majority of the news reports concerning corruption in both public offices, organisations and services comes from my blog. AS does a number for private companies too! The Police, HMRC, GCHQ, MI5 and all Ombudsman amongst many others all have their own data and secret recordings.
To cut that short and put it simply you were but small fry among those I have gone up against, despite your behaviour that you were untouchable.
Your next move now would naturally send me a letter asking me to drag my disabled arse right across London and then bizarrely cancel my claim for not arriving, which is so contradictory in nature it is not even worse mentioning.; You are I must say incompetent at lying. Then I will say noooo...I cannot make it and you have to come here!
This is when you msyteriously FAIL to arrive! You will then make excuses for each time and make it look like it was MY FAULT. Like I was not in when I actually was then I would phone you and accuse you of lying and your representative on the phone does not even deny it. Then you will make another date for a home visit and there will be yet ANOTHER excuse for your staff member, who 75% of which are not even Doctors, let alone specialists, and this time you will say something easily proven like...THERE WAS A BIG STEEL BIN BLOCKING YOUR DOOR! Which would be very weird because I do not have a bin! AT ALL!! Then I will be refused the DLA based on all this?!
Now here is what I have been telling people...
1) Atos and anyone connected with them are guilty of a number of illegalities and one being large scale fraud!
2) Vast sums of money which could be used to do good are being paid to people to either do nothing, hand out excuses with no intention of doing anything or actually cheat the people that have paid taxes?!
Now compare say someone in your organisation being paid £35,000 a year to £100,000 or more a year out of the poublic's money to actually cheat the public, many of which out of having a job for the first time in decades and paying taxes only to realise it is given to criminalistic dickwads like you?!
Now consider the fact that 100,000 people are aware of this thus far. Now think....this rises by 2,000 per week right now. Now stay with me here....this is after only 18 months! Now think what the numbers will be at in 18 months time?!
Oh yeah and I DO havbe to give IT lessons but do remember that the blog is GLOBAL so not doing a great deal for the government who went to go around lecturing on human rights now does it?!
I had planned all along that 2014 was going to be extremely difficult and that became true of 2013. This year of 2014 is going to be a whole lot worse, of that I can assure you!
Now once again...
Why do I have a form for ESA here and not PIPS?
ARE you planning to ask me to travel to Euston or Holloway? Because that is not going to work out too wekk for you.
As for my blog I am rather suprised I have not had any contact from you over it because all the members of what I now call the UNHOLY TRINITY of the NHS, DWP and Local Councils all know about it!
In fact I was recently told that my blog was appearing 'all over the place' very recently so I can expect a huge boost in figures between now and April?
