RECORDING WCA ASSESSMENTS

ESA RECRDED ASSESSMENTS

 Are you going for a F2F assessment for ESA and have asked for it recording? Well now there is concrete proof that the machines need two boundry microphones for recording of assessments. 

This is confirmed by a freedom of Information request by Sarah Conner and upheld by the Internal Review  they requested when they originally said they were not complying under  S12.  

The main point of her request was to assertain if there was any internal mics on the NEAL DUEL RECORDERS  used by MAXIMUS when a person asks for a recorded assessment. By their response it was thought they were trying to hide until the internal review pointed out otherwise. The only point of the request was to see if they required external boundry mics for recordings and this clearly showed they do require external microphones for recording assessments. This one sentence clearly says that the boundry microphones are required: In reply to your original questions 1 and 2, I can advise that the recording machines requirew boundry microphones

I believe that anyone that goes for a F2F and is having it recorded you, IMHO, should walk if they are not on the machine at the assessment. The HP might say they are not needed so ask them to point out the internal mics on the machine, simple answer they cannot, you win, they lose. You then hit them with the reply in red from above and tell them if the payments stop, i.e. they claim you didn't turn up to the DWP, you start court action against them and the DWP with immediate effect from the moment the payments stop. It then starts all over again, you turn up get the expenses form, ask if the machine is there and complete and in full working order, this keeps going on until you get a machine with boundry mics and in working order. 

HAPPY HUNTING 

How to beat sanctions imposed by the DWP

How to beat sanctions that the DWP try to impose

Has I feel up to it I am going to put in a few posts on how to beat the Department of W4nkers and Parasites (DWP). Well here goes, you have to be brave to follow this through but I believe they work I will start with the one I have done and know it works.

You turn up at the job centre and you are told, when they call you that you are been sanctioned because you didn't turn up for an appointment. Regardless of the first thoughts of terror! What am I going to do with no money? If you are prepared, I was and had a letter ready to hand over, I had a collection on me ready to use, you get the letter out that says this.

Job centre                                                                                                                    Your Name

Address                                                                                                                        Address

Postcode                                                                                                                       Postcode

                                                                                                                                      NINO

I (Name) accept this letter on behalf of the manager at the above named Job Centre.

The above named person accepted this SUBJECT ACCESS REQUEST on behalf of Job centre plus and the Department Of Work and Pensions for the following items after I was told I missed an appointment and was sent a letter of this appointment. 

1. A clearly watermarked, COPY or DUPLICATE of said letter
2. Proof of postage of said letter
3. Proof of receipt of said letter

The first of the 40 days starts the day after the date on this request.
Dated this day of (DAY) in the month of (MONTH) in the year (YEAR)


 Yours
(signature)

If they refuse to accept the letter (SAR) demand the manager or their stand in if they say he's off work or in a meeting. If no one will accept it leave it on the desk and say the request as now been delivered and the 40 days starts from 9am tomorrow morning if I don't receive the information  it goes straight to court from day 41 and nothing will stop the case apart from full payments defined in the compensation claim with all my costs paid by JCP/DWP.

You ask for it watermarked so that when this goes further they cannot say that is the original you are showing. They will send a copy but it won't be watermarked and the proofs will say something like this. We posted the letter on DATE and you should have received it on, or about DATE. Not what you asked for the letter would be indistinguishable from the original and as for proofs they are worthless. 

Now it starts to get interesting, you tell them the copy is not watermarked as requested and what they call proofs are worthless in court, and to supply exactly what was requested. You also say you want the make and model number of the printer to check it can watermark printed material. Any stalling by the Job centre/DWP may mean you are doing something right. They like to think that they are always right and the claimant is always wrong and if they stall then you will give up, you should never give up because if you are in the right they eventually comply and it could mean not only the money they are withholding but compensation on top as well. 

You think the JCP/DWP are hard with their sanction threats I say bring it on you tw@s I make them 5h1t their pants. 

It doesn't matter if you don't have a letter like above because you can just email the central team by putting your postcode in here  The main thing is that you request the 3 items.

1. A clearly watermarked, COPY or DUPLICATE of said letter
2. Proof of postage of said letter
3. Proof of receipt of said letter

If you email you still need to put your name, address with postcode and National Insurance Number (NINO) in the email so they know exactly who you are and where to send the requested information. Again the We posted the letter on DATE and you should have received it on, or about DATE.
Again this is not what is asked for don't let them try this, if you let them get away with it they will use the excuse time after time on you and other claimants.


 

The benefits scrounger  

Beating the Department of Wankers and Parasites at their own game

On the 20th Jan this year I kicked out my drug using and dealing son who was down as my carer. At the beginning he was just that my carer, but by the time I kicked him out he was anything but a carer, so often he would ask me for money saying keep the carers allowance until I have paid you. Like a fool I often gave him the money or paid his car repair bills, even his insurance and road tax, one year paying out nearly £900 without a penny being paid back. 

I knew something was up near the end because I would get up and the fridge would have been raided, loaves of bread eaten, alcohol consumed, and through the night he had his bedroom full of people who just, I assume, helped themselves to whatever they could get their hand on. 

He even bought himself a dog 

I started by putting 5 simple rules on his bedroom door 

1. I go to bed they leave
2. No helping yourself to stuff (this was for the people he had in)
3. Be in for meals or go without

I forget the other 2. He even tried to abuse those simple rules saying he thought they meant him as well! Was he fucking stupid or what? He went out and would leave the puppy with the other dogs and I was left to clean up after it and take out 3 dogs, now down to one as the other died, and the puppy pulled the flooring up and chewed it, it went that day before he got back. It took just another two weeks before he went again asking for more money and my ever decreasing bank account was getting low, not excessively but getting to the point where I would have lost 1% interest on the money in the bank. I told him no but he kept on asking for the money saying he owed people it, after a day of him asking I told him no and if he asked one more time he was out. Well less than an hour passed and he asked again so as I said he went, he tried to hit me but my aggression towards him meant he went with little fuss, he knew he had gone too far. He returned the next day for a letter saying I had kicked him out so he could say he was homeless and apart from a week later that is the last I saw of him. I changed the locks and when he tried to get in he couldn't so he left.

Now to get down to how I beat the DWP. 

On the 22nd I checked the bank account before going to bed and the carers allowance had gone in so I made a note and stuck it by the PC and went to bed it simply read notify CA of son not been my carer any more.

In the morning I got up and took the dog out then booted up the PC then went to make a drink. while the kettle was boiling I made a search for a contact email for carers allowance, I found it then made my drink of tea and put it next to the PC then opened the email and copied the address into the box and the subject as Son no longer my carer.

I put in a short email that he the son, and his name, was no longer my carer as I had kicked him out and if they sent me an account number and sort code I would transfer it back to them. I also inform the ESA place I want them to pay me the severe disability premium as I now live alone and as I receive income based ESA an entitled to the payment added to my ESA. Next Sunday before bed I check again and again another payment of CA has gone in, they obviously cannot read or the email address was one that is only read occasionally by them, so I get their phone number and set my number to withhold caller ID then make a note to call them after taking the dog out. 

That Monday morning I call them and they say it shouldn't have gone into my account so I start on them saying he was a drug dealer and user and he had it into my account so he could pay me the board and I take the rest out and pay him cash. I also tell them if they send any mail here for him it will be sent back with not at this address on it. Again they try to say I should keep hold of it for him to which I say not a fucking chance it comes straight back and I did just that put it back in the post with NOT AT THIS ADDRESS on it. I then start waiting for the increase in my payments, namely the SDP, but it doesn't happen so the beginning of March I send them an email entitled NOTICE OF INTENTION TO PROSECUTE giving them 14 days from the 6th of the month as I sent it on the Friday evening and stating that on the 21st I would start court proceedings. Come the Sunday 19th I forget to check the bank and Monday morning, the 20th, I get a letter from the DWP thinking it is their third party parasite company, Maximus or CDHA, as they like to use calling me for an assessment I go to the the county court page to download the papers then suddenly remember the letter said DWP not Mximus or CDHA, so I open it and find they have paid me over £300 into my account, taking me just over the limit for money in savings. Well I quickly go to a cashpoint, just near the supermarket, well as quick as my legs will let me, 25 minutes for a 2 tenths of a mile round journey, boy am I getting slow in my old age, I draw out the over the limit amount. Then Thursday they Put in another £330+ I draw the £300 and spend the rest on shopping.

And that is how you beat the DWP! You know you should be paid the money and they simply refuse or reply asking you to contact them by phone. I would never contact them by phone because all they do is lie and log it as a call and nothing about the contents of the call.

In my notice of intention I sent them a copy of every email and reply, including headers, so they knew they were beat, they just held the money until the last minute, they might have even gone and got my bank records again so they could put me over the savings limit but now I know how those wankers operate I will beat them every time, because if you go over the limit you have a set time to get back to that limit, normally before your next payment for that benefit so you could be £550 over and due another payment in 7 days but because you get 28 days to use the PIP money and the same with any other benefit classed as income you are only classed as having it as savings after the next payment of the benefit.

The best advice I can give anyone is get a safe for any money you have above the limit and keep it in that the only downfall is when they change the notes or coins you would have to keep putting money in the bank and withdrawing the same amount in the new notes and that would be suspicious activity on a regular basis, like daily or every other day. Hopefully by 2021 all the conversions will be done so that should be that for some time. 

I am Daniel Blake!

I am just like Daniel Blake, are you?
From 2007, no longer,  I have had a series of illnesses that have progressively got worse, and as the medications make me extremely aggressive and have done since early 2000, not long after when I first started taking them.
Up until then I used to eat anything I wanted and never put on more than a pound or two but lost it quickly, I weighed just 10.5 stone and could eat 5 big mac meals and still not feel full and finish off anything the wife didn't want. I don't eat them now but you may say that's why you put weight on but that was not so, I used to eat all the junk foods and never gain weight. I even went out for meals and when asked what I wanted would say the biggest meal on the menu, one time getting a 72 ounce steak with chips, tomato, salad, mushrooms & peas and if you ate it all in 45 minutes you got it free I demolished it In under 25 minutes with a starter and desert, I even had half the wife's 12 ounce steak and her peas and mushrooms. Now I won't touch anything bigger than a 16 ounce steak and often choose an 8 ounce steak when out, all because if I ate like I used too, I would be around double the weight I am now.

In 2008 the DWP (Department of wankers and Parasites, as I call them) decided I was fit for work so I decided from that day to make their employees lives hell, and boy did I, so much so that even the security (or chocolate fireguards as I called them) wouldn't come near me. It started while I was waiting for the appeal I signed on and told the job centre after signing that morning I was moving to a place near Leeds. They asked when so I said when I get home from here today. The place I was signing on at did fuck all in helping me and they were glad to have me off their books and the responsibility of another centre. On checking out the position of the address of the new job centre I was going to I found that there was a closer one just half the distance from my new address so I printed it off with a wording I had found that said a person would sign on at their nearest job centre they said it wasn't my nearest centre in my postal area so I lost it in there and that was my first,and only, contact with their security guard who very quickly melted away after I told him I am thinking of 3 ways to end your life pick a fucking number 1, 2, or 3, he disappeared quicker than shit off a stick. The person I was seeing then proceeded to claim I must look for full time work and gave me the form to sign so I ripped it up and said start again and this time take into account my fucking disabilities. she tried to claim my only disability was being abusive so I really kicked off. The security took no notice of her they really didn't want to go face to face with me, but the disability employment adviser caught her tension and he came over I finished off with him and only having to look for 16 hours work per week. That really cut the number of jobs that I could do down. Many times I never applied for one job as most jobs were either Zero hours or full time, I had already said to previous people on signing on that I would not apply for jobs that were zero hours and  got away with it even though one person tried to claim that most zero hour jobs rarely meant zero hours but I shut him up saying that if I got 16 hours for two weeks but nothing for two weeks would I get two weeks JSA? I then went on to say of course I fucking wouldn't as they would average it out at 8 fucking hours a week if anything I would get it made up to £64+ for a week. This went on for 18 months until I went into hospital for, by what the surgeon called, a routine operation, they claimed I would be in hospital 1 week, that 1 week was nearly 5 weeks. I went in weighing over 17 stone (113.7Kg) and came out weighing around 10 stone (65.3Kg). My first point of call on the way home was to a cash point to get out some money, when I went in the maximum amount you could withdraw was £400 when I came out it had been reduced to £300 and no amount of me trying to get £400 would allow a withdrawal. I found out when I got home that the amount had been reduced by 25% when I was in hospital and a quick on line check revealed that no JSA had been paid but I put in a claim for ESA claiming from the day I went into hospital and I got paid from the day after I went in hospital. The one bonus was that the ESA was more than I ever got on JSA by over £40 due to the severe disability premium because of my DLA, now they would possibly try to withhold the person knowing the extra money was due if they got DLA, or PIP as it's now known as.
I got my assessment date but I had included a copy of every appointment I had and they gave me an appointment that clashed with a hospital appointment date I had sent them. I called to cancel but I didn't know if my daughter could make it but what had they expected me to do go to the hospital for a 11.30 appointment have the appointment and wait for the transport back home then try and make it to the assessment for 1pm, which If I hadn't cancelled I wouldn't have made it, as I got home at 12.50pm, just 10 minutes before the appointment time, in short I would never had made it to both appointments and as I have always said first know appointment takes precedence over a later one no matter what! so that's why I cancelled but the trouble in getting a new appointment they just give me a date and time and when I said I don't know if the person can bring me on that date she said tough you can change it for an earlier date but not a later one I started swearing and she hung up.

It came that the daughter could and on getting there we parked in the DWP car park as I had a blue badge saved walking 100 meters from the pay and display car park up to the door there was a shallow ramp or a series of two steps,I took the ramp every time stopping half way up each ramp for a minute or two this was obviously a test to say reliably safely and repeatedly an action could be performed. Fuck them they lost, we got in and I made,very slowly, for the chair by the door as it was the only door to go through that wasn't an exit by the time my daughter went up to the window and handed in my appointment letter, it was a copy I had the original at home, she said you're late, I took my phone out and immediately said no we're fucking not you lying bitch my time says we're 6 fucking minutes early. The security guard (chocolate fireguard) got up from  the only chair with arms in the place,  to walk across I immediately said pick a number between 1 and 3 he replied why so I said the number depend on how long you live get the right one you may live until an ambulance arrives the others mean instant death. He thought for a moment then turned round and sat down.
My daughter came over and asked if I had any ID on me and I replied in a loud voice who the fuck would come here to verify information they have already been fucking given unless it was the fucking person named on the fucking letter. I half expected the chocolate fireguard to get up and try and come over but he didn't move. about 3 minutes later a very nervous person opened the door and called my name, it turned out she was an Asian GP  as I looked at her as I was helped up by the daughter and she followed us along the corridor telling us to turn into the room it took me about 2 minutes to walk those 25 meters. I could tell from the start she wanted little or no interaction with me as the person at the window had gone off and notified her I was here and wasn't prepared to be walked over. She started off the questions and immediately looked at my daughter for the reply so I let her answer, the questions lasted about 45 minutes then she said to me can you do this so I said no I fucking cannot I am not a fucking performing chimp. She seemed shocked that I swore, but I had been like it since I got in there. She ventured round from her side of the desk and immediately tried to take my walking stick I grabbed it close to me and said you look with your fucking eyes not your fucking hands. She let out a little ggrrrrr as she retreated to the safety of her PC tapping away she said I have finished and then signed off from the PC and followed us again to the door and along the corridor she punched a code into the door lock and let us out.
As we got to the door the chocolate Fireguard got up and moved to the other end of the room, definitely wanting to keep his distance.  It took about three weeks to get the result letter but after 4 days I had called them for a copy of the report, the 40 days passed and I forgot about it having got a fortnightly amount of £320+ going into my account, almost twice my JSA £170+. Was I happy? You bet I was. Then at the end of 2010 the ex wife died she owed thousands on gas and electric as well as other bills, she had not declared our son as living there so he had no right to live there but as it was cold weather I told him to stay put until I could get through and take possession as I was still listed on the tenancy, then there would be sod all they could do. I got through a week later then when the estate manager wanted the son to move out I told her you should have taken me off the tenancy when I fucking asked and as now you will be asking me to take over the payments for the rent owed there is fuck all you can do bye and shut the door on her.
A few days later She called me and I said I would only accept a certain area of the city, the central area, she tried to make out getting this area was very rare unless you are top of the waiting list, but I held out and a few months later was offered a place close to where I wanted. I made out I would think about it but all the time I knew I would take it. I just wanted to make them sweat, and while I had the keys they couldn't let it. In the end I accepted it, but I left it a couple of weeks before I notified the DWP I had moved, I mean you want time free from when you are due a payment of ESA or DLA and as I was due DLA the week of the move I held off until the following week when my ESA payment had gone in sending both the DLA and ESA an email saying I had moved from address A to address B on date just like when I moved into the ex's place in 2010.

Then we move forward to May 2012 and another ESA50 drops through the letterbox I am a bit pissed off because the ESA72 says I will be contacted again on or after 26/5/12 but the return date is after the 26th so I am not too bothered. It takes the DWP over 8 weeks to do a paper report on 124 pages of evidence and the report but even though this says the same longer term BS in the paper report I just don't have the strength to fight them, I know that just the phrase on the report and the ESA113 could get me another 12 months but I let it slide. There was no WFI letter with the award letter and the ESA72 clearly stated WE WILL CONTACT YOU AGAIN ON OR AFTER (DATE) WHERE YOU MAY BE SENT ANOTHER ESA50 OR ASKED TO ATTEND AN APPOINTMENT. 

For a whole 10 months I got peace off the DWP not one letter apart from the yearly increase letter. then In May 2013 another ESA50 I quickly remember 2012 so search for the copy on my PC I find it along with the ESA72 I quickly print off page 2 of the ESA72 and type out a letter to enclose with the blank copy I am going to send back to them. For once I don't have brain freeze and the letter writes itself in one day I open their junk mail put it in their envelope with a complaint letter and a copy of page 2 of the ESA72.
48 hours pass and I do another letter to the DWP and a copy of page two of the ESA72. They reply that they send them out two months early and always have so that on or about the date on the ESA72 the claimant will be having an assessment. My reply is along the lines of not in 2012 so always is a load of fucking bullshit. I find the envelope the 2012 ESA50 came in clearly franked 17/5/12 and enclose it with another letter telling them I am thinking of prosecuting them as I have enough evidence for a case against the DWP. They send another bullshit letter, and say they have notified ATOS to issue another ESA50 and just 4 days later it arrives another fucking ESA50 with a return date before the date on the 2012 ESA72 my first thought is send the fucking thing back to them with a copy of court papers, but as the date is just 6 days before the date on the ESA72 I decide to fill it in add all the papers then when they send the reminder wait until the last minute and ask for three weeks because I am awaiting paperwork to enclose with the form, it works but they only allow me two weeks, still it's after the date on the ESA72 so in a way I won.
This time they are very quick in doing a paper report, I think they know they have met their match and I get another two years only this time they send three letters the award letter, a WFI letter and a breakdown of how much I would get. The WFI is just a week away and when me and the daughter turn up they keep us waiting before the manager sees us and claims the person who was to deal with me had an emergency to attend too, I bet he had to go home for a change of pants after reading the any other info page on the ESA form it said over 3 quarters of the page all verbal communication would be audio recorded. And you can bet I was, I go in a DWP or anywhere associated with them and I record covertly. Some job centre NAZI'S hate been recorded and do anything to avoid it, the manager admitted he hadn't done one of these for years so my daughter quickly changed it from a WFI to a maternity claim which he was more than happy to do so when I got home I deleted the recording.  Then Mid December another letter arrives this for another WFI this one is the beginning of Jan 2014 I have an appointment the same day in Newcastle so cancel I get a new one for Feb and it lasts just 9 minutes her first words are you should be in the support group she asks for a contact number, I could have give her the home number because I don't have a phone connected to the line, and who knows their mobile number, oh I do but just looked blank so she wrote on the appointment letter for someone to contact her and give her a contact number I threw it in the bin outside just round the corner from the office. Then I mid 2014 I remembered about asking for an ESA72 copy and sure enough the 2014 copy had changed from the 2013 copy it had taken out the contact on or after section, sneaky little parasites, maybe I should have taken them to court in 2013.  

In just over 4 months it will be 4 years since my last WCA but all I say is bring it on they can try all the crap they like I am ready for them. If they try the old info bullshit they will be told there as been no change so it's still fucking relevant! I have answers for all their crap, from paying bills to shopping, and so should all those going to be interrogated by them. It's not the claimants fault if the HP hasn't read the ESA50 or PIP02 form so what is stopping you from saying in the interrogation Just as it says on the bloody form? If they ask for you to say how you shop, pay bills or other info you have put on the form you could tell them, which shows them you have no memory problems, or you can say read the fucking form! This will more than likely end the assessment. If you have put in the form you react to been provoked and you have taken a copy of the form and information sent with you, then why can't they read this? It's because they want you to say something that isn't on the form so they can then take that part of the statement out of the full statement and say that the claimant states this which is just part of the whole statement. 
They may ask can you cover 50 meters and you may say "Given enough time I could cover 50 meters" They are looking for things to put in saying you can cover that distance so in a reply they would put CLAIMANT STATES: THEY CAN COVER 50/100/200 METERS. When you started with GIVEN ENOUGH TIME but enough time could mean twice as long or longer than a person of a similar age meaning they are to assume you are not capable of doing that distance, so straight away they lie on the report. That's why I say put it all in the form and if they cannot read it that's their fault, it certainly isn't yours. 

All I can suggest is you try it putting everything on the forms like bill payments on-line shopping they all make adjustments to bills or tell you how much they will take every month for the following year, apart from shopping you get the amount with every order, telling them you don't watch TV, video's or blue-rays. anyone can listen to the radio for free even if just for background music, or chat, there's nothing worse than been in a house with no sounds.

THAT'S WHY I AM DANIEL BLAKE 

I Daniel Blake

Tonight I watched I Daniel Blake, I know some will say you cannot have watched it unless you saw it at the pictures,  but I did only it had foreign subtitles but it was in English language. from the film I thought there was a couple of inaccuracies one was that if you apply for any other benefit they close your claim on ESA or tell you you cannot because you have an open claim.  
To claim any other benefit you must close the claim for ESA and that is the mandatory reconsideration you requested, you need money or funds to see you by something like PIP/DLA or savings to see you through, because they can take as long as they like to make the decision.

If someone wants this could make a very hard hitting TV series not necessarily Daniel Blake but along the lines of  I Daniel Blake, The John Smith story basing say two or three two hour episodes on one story. This is something the main 4 channels possibly wouldn't touch with a barge pole it would be up to say Netflix or Amazon to do it, and say they just did it for the UK subscribers it could really rock any government in power if they did. It could really shame MP's that voted to cut the WRAG component from ESA, while in 2017 they are going to receive a £1000 rise.
They could end each episode with

"I AM NOT A CLIENT, A CUSTOMER, NOR A SERVICE USER, I AM NOT A SHIRKER, A SCROUNGER, A BEGGAR NOR A THIEF, I AM NOT A NATIONAL INSURANCE NUMBER, NOR A BLIP ON A SCREEN. I PAID MY DUES, NEVER A PENNY SHORT, AND PROUD TO DO SO. MY NAME IS __________________ , I AM A MAN/WOMAN, NOT A DOG, AS SUCH, I DEMAND MY RIGHTS. I DEMAND YOU TREAT ME WITH RESPECT. I _________________
, AM A CITIZEN, NOTHING MORE, NOTHING LESS."


 Katie read that out at Daniel Blake's funeral, after he died. I am sure they would be swamped with story's from people who may want to remain anonymous but get their story out. Nothing would give me greater pleasure than seeing both Labour and Conservatives been humiliated by this on streaming services, or any channel willing to make a series on this subject.

I have things I would like to humiliate the government with! Why do you think they say that HP's will never have to attend tribunals? Because no matter who you send the request too it will never be passed on to the HP telling them they have to attend, same with decision makers they think they are safe from having to turn up! The best you get if a tribunal is adjourned to allow them to attend is a solicitor turning up and the best they can do is give an opinion of an opinion.

I have a list of forms that should be requested as soon as you get home or the HP has gone from your home, or you get the result of a paper assessment and they are

ESA

1. ESA50 (unless you copied the completed one to file) 
   ESA85  (report)
   ESA85(S) 
   ESA113
   LT54/ESA65

   If you get bad news, fail the assessment, you should ask for a reconsideration, they can take their time so don't waste yours but do withhold your number if you call them 141 from a BT line or hide caller ID on a mobile. you won't get paid while they reconsider but you may get hardship payments for ESA.
   
   
   If you get to a tribunal without doing a Daniel Blake (dying) then you should also have asked that the HP and both decision makers are there to answer question, you aren't going to ask them just about the report but about everything you can get away with!
   you are going to ask them
   1. How long they have work for the DWP or assessment company?
   2. If they work part time or full time?
   3. Ask the HP their full name as given on the GMC/NMC/HCP website and their number
   4. Ask their fields of speciality? if asked by the panel or person to elaborate, say if this was a court and you were giving evidence what would say you have expert medical knowledge in?
   5. How many books/pages/paragraphs or sentences they have read on your medical conditions?
   6. Could you name at least one of them?
   7. Are they available for sale to the general public?
   8. Did you contact anyone for advice, either before or after the assessment? What are their medical qualifications? 
   9. (DM) Did you contact anyone for further information if so what is their field of expertise? 
   10. (DM) What is your specialist field of medical knowledge? Ask them to explain some medical terms to you have and the answers too.
   11. Can you point out what is FACT and what is opinion in the report? 
   
   But you won't have to go through that the worst they will try is to send a solicitor to answer the questions and throw you off with legal jargon, do not allow them to stand as a representative of either the HP or decision makers.  You become the Daniel Blake, direct questions to the medical person on the panel if they say they will answer any questions you have, make them wet themselves.

HAVE YOU BEEN TURNED DOWN FOR ESA OR PIP?

HAVE YOU BEEN TURNED DOWN FOR ESA OR PIP?

If you have been turned down for ESA or PIP then just don't give up!

First you have to go through the mandatory reconsideration, you can send additional evidence but they usually stay with their decision so what can you do? Well here is my way of dealing with them, although yet to be tried out, I expect to be trying it out sometime next year, if not earlier.

You should have your assessment recorded, phone them 48 before and tell them you want it recording, for ESA and covertly record your assessment for PIP. Turn on the Dictaphone before you get into the street, make sure you have set it to at least 15 minutes before it turns off or disable the option altogether, if 15 minutes cough into the mic every 5 minutes so activate another 15 minute period or say something like "How much longer are they going to keep me waiting I'm in enough pain as it is now?"  and make sure you only turn up minutes before, no more than 5 minutes before, their clocks run fast by about 5 minutes. ask for your travel expenses form, then ask if the equipment is there and in full working order and complete, the portable version has the disc slots above the display window the 9102 has the disc slots to the side of the display window. There should also be two boundary MICS, one in front of the HP and one in front of you if they aren't there tell them you asked if the equipment was complete and was told it was they lied STRIKE ONE. If the HP has said it has internal MICS, STRIKE TWO.  

But for now let's say they have done a report and declared you are not eligible for the benefit and they upheld the MR

you fill in the tribunal form and send it to them. You get back a hearing date and time so what next? You contact the DWP and the CEO of the assessment company with the following two emails, first the assessment company.

On (DATE/TIME) I demand that the HP (NAME) who assessed me at the F2F/ produced the paper report attend the hearing to answer questions about the report and other subjects relevant to the case.

Failure to attend will result in asking for the report to be thrown out and a decision in favour of the claimant made!

Signed

A. N. OTHER

 The CEOs email can be found on http://www.ceoemail.com/

NOW THE DECISION MAKER (you may have to post it I cannot find an email address for Caxton house unless you go through the JCP site HERE

PLEASE MAKE SURE THIS GETS TO THE CORRECT DEPARTMENT

On (DATE/TIME) I demand that the decision maker who put their name to the report of opinion claiming I was fit for work attend the hearing at (Address of hearing) to answer questions about the report and other subjects relevant to the case. Also requested is the attendance of anyone they referred to for advice on the report or supplied evidence,

Signed

A.N. OTHER

Now here are the questions to ask!

1. How long have you worked for the company?
2. Is the job part time or full time?
3. How do you keep your registration current as writing reports of opinion is hardly keeping your registration current?
4. Name the books you have read specifically on my illness?
5. (if they name one ask) was it the whole book(s), pages, paragraphs, or just a few sentences?
6. Are they available for sale to the general public?
7. (if they are not) Why not?
8. What subjects do you specialise in?
9. Are they recorded on the company's website with your registration details?
10. (if they say no) Why not?
11. Did you, or any other person that works at the company, access my medical records?
12. Why not? 
13. (if yes) Ask why they were not enclosed in the SUBJECT ACCESS REQUEST you submitted on DATE? (this date should be the day of the assessment by email to the JCP office you would sign on at if found fit for work)
14. Can you point out in the report what is opinion and what is fact?

Now for the decision Maker

1. How long have you worked as a decision maker for the DWP?
2. What are your qualifications that make you so qualified to be a decision maker?
3. Did you refer to anyone for advice in relation to the report or supplied evidence?
4. (if yes) Are they here today to answer questions?
5.  Do you specifically make decisions on ESA/PIP or do you make decisions on all things?
6. Do you always agree with what is in the reports? 
7. When was the last time you disagreed with the findings of the HP/JCP or other person representing the authority? 
8. Can you point out to me on the report what is opinion and what is fact ?

For anyone turning up with the decision maker

1. What medical authority are you registered with?
2. What is your GMC/PIN NUMBER?
3. When did you last practice?
4. How many books have you read specific to my condition?
5. Are they available for sale to the general public?
6. Was it whole book(s), pages, paragraphs or sentences?
7. Did you read the information after you where asked about the subject or did you know the answer when asked?
8. Which books or websites did you use to get the information 
9. Is the site specifically for qualified people i.e. not accessible without medical knowledge?
10. Can you produce a copy of the evidence that you read for the tribunal?
11. Can you tell me on the report what is FACT and what is Opinion?

Has no one from the HP, or decision makers department will turn up rephrase the questions to ask the medical person on the panel if they claim they will answer on their behalf. Make sure the medical person is put under pressure get as many "I don't know" or opinion related answers as possible. Opinion is what you are questioning on the report so again demand the report and everything the DWP and assessment company have said is thrown out, everything the HP has said is not fact but opinion if any party says it is all fact point them to parts of the report where the HP has stated it is their opinion and produce a written word for word account of the assessment as evidence, audio recording, written out word for word, they don't have audio devices at tribunals, so the only option is to spend hours transcribing it to written word. 

I have just read that the DWP are turning up at tribunals so there would be three in the room THE JUDGE, MEDICAL PERSON, DWP REPRESENTATIVE, maybe 4 if it's PIP, that doesn't include you and any representative accompanying you. Ask that all the people are named, don't be afraid you may want to call them at a later to answer questions if they are sent by the DWP, maybe they can tell what is opinion and what is fact within the evidence!

 

 

Got a fine after meeting with compliance officer and some money to pay back

Well 3 months after the meeting with the compliance officer I get a letter saying I have to pay back a total of £416 including a £50 fine for not informing them of changes. I am a person that gets my statements on-line and never check the amount in the account I just go to the mini bank and put in the amount I want and have always got it, in fact I have never checked the amount in the account since 2008.

Anyway after I got the letter I sent the DWP an email asking them to show how money from a benefit that is not counted as income can suddenly be classed as savings if not used. I got this letter on the 24/5/16, over 3 months after the interview and 6 weeks after they said I would hear from them.
If I hear from their recovery unit in the next few weeks I am going to send the cunts a letter, again asking for them to show in the DLA or PIP rules that a disregarded benefit can be classed as savings if not used and the date on which it became law and that it must specifically relate to those benefits. If anything there is no such ruling that a disregarded benefit is classed as savings if not used, they may try to use the basic savings over £5999.99 incur a reduction of benefit, that means £6000 incurs a £1 a week deduction in benefits.

Just over 2 years ago

Just over 2 years ago I picked an argument with the DWP, one they had no chance of winning.
They sent me an ESA50 (Employment And Support Allowance) form at the end of April 2013 but I had to hand I had a copy of the previous ESA72 which stated on page to that THEY WOULD CONTACT ME AGAIN ON OR AFTER a time in June, around the 20th, so I sent the ESA50 back blank along with a copy of the second page of the ESA72, and a letter of complaint, then 48 hours later I emailed the DWP with a letter of complaint and a copy of page 2 of the ESA72. About 2 weeks later received a letter from the DWP saying they had told ATOS to issue another ESA50, by the time it turned up I had all my answers written and all the supporting evidence prepared, I waited until they sent the reminder letter after 3 weeks to call them and say I needed more time, all delaying tactics as everything had been sitting ready to go for over two weeks, they gave another 14 days, taking the contact after over the date for returning the ESA50.

After I sent the ESA50 back I then got a letter off the DWP saying that they issued the ESA50 around 2 months before the date on the ESA72 so that the person would have an assessment on or about the date on the ESA72.
I did an email to the DWP saying that they were full of bullshit and I would go to court and page 2 of the ESA72 would be the only evidence I would produce. around the 30th July I got a ESA72 from the DWP saying they had placed me in WRAG, again, and page 2 said the same thing, WE WILL CONTACT YOU AGAIN ON OR AFTER 25/7/15 there was, of course the standard bullshit of they could contact sooner, so I sent another email to the DWP saying as the original ESA50 was received at the end of April please supply copy's of the evidence you had to contact me 2 months before the contact on or after date on the original ESA72 and I sent it as a subject access request, after 45 days I sent another email with the subject heading NOTICE OF INTENT TO PROSECUTE They replied to that within 4 days stating they could not find any evidence to send that would be necessary for me to be contacted sooner than the contact on or after date on the ESA72.
I intended to do a freedom of information request for a copy of the ESA72 in 2013 but totally forgot, when I did put in the request it was late 2014 and they had changed the ESA72 and removed the section about contacting ON OR AFTER, it is my opinion that after my threats to the DWP they shit a ton of bricks and reworded the ESA72 from April 2014. 

There are still signs on ESA85 reports that they are abusing their power and contacting some people early, and that is the ESA85 saying A RETURN TO WORK IN THE LONGER TERM IS NOT ADVISABLE, that normally means 2 years of ESA so even though an ESA72 doesn't state a contact date people on ESA could email the DWP and say that they have read the ESA85 and it advises THAT A RETURN TO WORK IN THE LONGER TERM IS NOT ADVISABLE so as according to their rules the LONGER TERM is usually 2 years you expect a reply of 2 years from the date on the ESA85 that the DWP decision maker has agreed with and you do not expect to be contacted until 2 years after the date on the report.

At the moment the DWP & MAXIMUS are in meltdown and assessment can be delayed by 12 months, or longer, I was looking forward to sending them another blank ESA50 and copy of the ESA 72 but my contact ON OR AFTER DATE has passed so I now leave it up to those with CONTACT ON OR AFTER DATES, which if I am right, could go into 2017, or at least the end of March 2016  to take what action they believe is right for them. 

The above story was told to me by another person, who said I could print it if I changed it to as if it was me that had gone through it so any DWP Muppet who thinks they can harass me by this been posted think again because it's not me personally who told this I am just the storyteller not the person who made the DWP and all the top Muppets shit bricks!   

 

The Budget 8/7/15

THE BUDGET, JULY 2015

“Taken together, all the welfare reforms I’ve announced will save £12 billion by 2019/20 and will be legislated for in the year ahead, starting in the ‘Welfare Reform and Work Bill’ that will be published tomorrow.”
SOCIAL HOUSING
Rents in social housing sector to be reduced by 1% a year for the next four years.
Social housing tenants who earn more than £40,000 in London or £30,000 outside london will be forced to pay the market rent for their home.
TAX CREDITS
Income threshold at which tax credits start to be withdrawn to be reduced from £6,420 to £3,850. The taper rate will be raised to 48%. Income rise disregard will be reduced from £5,000 to £2,500.
Support from tax credits and universal credit will be limited to two children. Families who have a third or subsequent child after 2017 will not receive additional payments for that child.
'Similar changes' to be made for housing benefit.
Tax credit spending will be returned to 2007/08 levels in real terms.
HOUSEHOLD BENEFITS CAP
The household benefit cap will be lowered from £26,000 nationally to £23,000 in London and £20,000 in the rest of the UK. The DWP’s very conservative estimate is that an additional 90,000 households will be hit and that an additional 40,000 children will be forced into poverty as a result. Many families are likely to face eviction.
SUPPORT FOR MORTGAGE INTEREST PAYMENTS
Support for mortgage interest payments changes from a benefit to a loan
WORKING AGE BENEFITS
Working age benefits to be frozen for 4 years. PIP, DLA and ESA support group excluded from freeze.
ESA
ESA Work-related activity group . For future claimants only, ESA WRAG will be paid at same rate as JSA.  Osborne says:
"No current claimants will be affected by this change"
BENEFIT CUTS
Osborne says:
“The welfare system should always support the elderly, the vulnerable and disabled people.”
“We will not tax or means-test disability benefits.”
“Those who can work will be expected to look for work and take it when it is offered.The best route out of poverty is work.”
“For those aged 18-21 we’re introducing a new youth obligation that says they must either earn or learn.”
“We’re also abolishing the automatic entitlement to housing benefit for 18-21 year olds. There will be exceptions made for vulnerable people and other hard cases.”
INHERITANCE TAX
No inheritance tax on the first £1 million.  Not something that will affect many of our members, but they will be paying for it from benefits cuts.
STUDENT MAINTENANCE GRANTS
Maintenance grants for students whose families are on low incomes will be scrapped from 2016/17 yearand replaced by loans.
EXTENT OF CUTS
Osborne says £17bn of savings will be announced today, out of £37bn needed. £12bn will come from benefits cuts and £5bn from tackling tax avoidance.
PRE-BUDGET SPECULATION
Benefits and Work will be keeping you posted about budget measures most likely to affect our members.
At the moment, there is speculation that:

• The £12 billion in cuts will be spread over three years instead of two. £8 billion will be cut by 2017/18 and a further £4 billion by 2018/19.
• The household benefit cap will be lowered from £26,000 nationally to £23,000 in London and £20,000 in the rest of the UK. The DWP’s very conservative estimate is that an additional 90,000 households will be hit and that an additional 40,000 children will be forced into poverty as a result. Many families are likely to face eviction.
• Tax credits for people in work will be cut, possibly by cutting the amount of tax credits paid to families with more than two children.
• Social housing tenants who earn more than £40,000 in London or £30,000 outside london will be forced to pay the market rent for their home.
• Tenants will be obliged to pay the first 10% of their housing benefit themselves.
• Maintenance grants for students whose families are on low incomes will be scrapped and replaced by loans.
• Personal independence payment (PIP) and disability living allowance (DLA) will be subject to income tax.
• The work-related activity component of employment and support allowance (ESA) will be abolished, meaning a cut of £29.05 a week for claimants in the work-related activity group.

A true Victorian budget by Osborne, benefits capped to £23,000, £20,000 outside London, ESA Work Related Activity Group (WRAG) dropped to JSA rate for new claimants from April 2016, student grants to be replaced by loans. Only 2 benefits will escape the freeze ESA (SG), DLA/PIP. 
So there you have it rents going up council tax up but your benefits frozen for 4 years as the freeze is likely to start from next year that will see the them up to the election they are going to lose, but not give people a rise for 4 years. But as the amount they say they give you states it's the least you can get by on, within 4 years people will be living in poverty, if not by next April. By 2020 those on JSA will be in poverty relying on food banks
Next April we see those who need support because they cannot work will get just JSA rates if they pass the assessment phase and are placed in WRAG, I personally have been told I should be in the support group but thought what's the point when the assessment phase of ESA meant the amount I got jumped to over £131 overnight then to nearly £160 a week when I got full ESA in 2010, the £5+ seemed just not worth it, in 5 years 5 months I have had just 2 Work Focused Interviews (WFI'S), I don't count the one I had on 27/7/12 that turned into a maternity benefits claim for my daughter, because the person I was supposed to see had a family emergency. 

Just in from Cameron

This has just come to my in-box from that parasite that likes to be known as the PM of the UK!

I'm determined not to waste a second in delivering our manifesto commitments.
So since the election, we have:

• Announced important measures to cut down on waste in the NHS, so that every penny goes on getting patients the best possible treatments
• Carried on backing businesses so they can keep creating jobs - with 2 million more people in work since 2010
• Continued to help people secure a home of their own, with over 100,000 families now helped onto the housing ladder through our Help to Buy scheme
• Introduced the Referendum
• Announced new plans to turn all failing schools into Academies and to make sure all children study key academic subjects, so they get the skills they need
• m Bill to Parliament to give everyone in Britain a say before the end of 2017
• Brought forward plans to help families who want to work hard and get on by giving 30 hours' free childcare to working parents of three- and four-year-olds

We will keep working through our plan to create more security and opportunity in our country - and, with your help, we can secure a brighter future for everyone in Britain.

The NHS spends too much on branded drugs when there are cheaper alternatives, they would rather spend 30p per tablet when you can get the same tablet for 1p . They are paying some company for the name on the box that a patient never sees. I was once in hospital and refused to hand over my medication, stating I was going to self medicate, so when I went to the bathroom a nurse went through my stuff and removed them.

Backing businesses is the Tory way of saying backing work scams where benefit claimants have to work for just their benefits for at least 30 hours a week, so if you divide £74.10 by 30 it's just £2.47 per hour, even less if you're on under 25 rates, it's only £1.93 per hour, even an apprentice earn £2.73 per hour so let's tell Cameron where to stick his head!

100,000 new home owners what happens when the interest rates go up and they are hit with hundreds of pounds per month extra in payments the government cannot keep interest rates as low as they are and keep people buying homes the bubble has to burst sooner or later, IMHO I think another 20/23 years and interest will rocket, and new home owners will find their home and need a place to live and the council will be swamped with homeless people, possibly riots against the organisations the people think are responsible for the crisis.

The referendum is just Cameron's last swan song before he comes out with a fixed result of staying in the EU then he will stay on until 2019 before he stands down to let Osborne take over a party that will be crucified in 2020, that's if he lasts that long. Give people their say on the EU before the end of 2017 not by the end of 2017. With the referendum Cameron could tell the population that it will be 31/12 2017 then he will still have kept his promise of a referendum in 2017

Failing schools are failing schools no matter what they are called be it a school, an academy, a college, or a university, it's just a failure under another name. It's either the teachers are not up to standard or the pupils just aren't interested in what the school wants to teach them, in short the pupils think the subject is not of interest, political correctness has already ruined sports in schools so why not take it further and ruin every other subject?

30 hours childcare may still mean parents can only work 20 hours a week as they may have to drop off the child get across town then put in a shift then travel back across town to pick up the children meaning parents cannot work full time but part time and any overtime would require that they pay for childcare

AND FINALLY
Creating more security really means more snooping on the emails you send, things you post on-line, your text messages, your phone calls, in short they are going to make every one a PERSON of INTEREST, the machine has been created and now your only a number  

YOUR SANCTIONED

Just imagine you turn up at the job centre plus for your usual signing on or other appointment, like a work focused interview, only to be told you are going to be sanctioned because they sent you a previous letter and you didn't turn up.
This is the first you've heard of this, you think there is nothing you can do about it and will just have to ride it out the best you can. Well actually you can do something you can fight the corrupt bastards by asking them to supply a copy of the proof of postage and, HERE'S THE CLINCHER, proof of receipt!

In my opinion I call the second part the CLINCHER because they cannot provide any proof of receipt. These letters, if they are ever sent out, will just be pushed through your letterbox with the everyday mail. I have a little trick that you can use to get them to admit this and that is email the cunts!
Your email should go along the lines of

[NAME]                           [FIRST LINE OF ADDRESS]                              [NINO]
                                                                                                                 national insurance number

SUBJECT ACCESS REQUEST

Please make sure this gets to the correct department

On [DATE] I was informed I would be sanctioned because of a missed appointment, please provide me with the following information

1. A copy of the appointment letter showing the date and time of the missed appointment
2. The date this letter was posted with a copy of proof of postage
3. Proof of postage of receipt of such letter by the claimant or someone at the said address

For each action that you cannot comply with please state a vilid reason as this will be used as evidence against the DWP/JCP in any future action for compensation and prosection of department staff/managers for FRAUD.
In this action I will claim 3/5/10 times the weekly stoppages, or part of the week.

Yours

[NAME]
[PRINT NAME]

If they cannot prove you received a letter, usually a proof of receipt, then a court should have no option but to find against the DWP/JCP.
Amend in yellow to chosen option

 If you follow this through be prepared for a long fight, they may cave in, but they expect the claimant to be the one to cave first. This is only natural as the DWP/JCP think that without money the claimant will submit, but don't be fooled sometimes the county courts will take cases where money is the hardship for free. You could also let local papers know the DWP are been taken to their local court for fraud you never know it may gain interest.

Mcvile work and pensions benefits sanctions

Benefit sanctions see people say fuck you JCP and not turn up at JCP in effect dropping out of the system
http://www.parliamentlive.tv/Main/Player.aspx?meetingId=17193

McVile and Chris Heyes a strategy director from DWP the DWP have more directors than the Titanic had staff.
The minimum sanction doubled in time to 4 weeks while the the maximum time went to 3 years, that's not doubling the time it's increasing the time by 6 times. The first question thrown at McVile was how would sanctions help? McVile did a typical response of avoiding the question even when told to answer it and she was basically avoiding giving a response. McVile said and I quote " best support, the right support. Underpins the effectiveness and fairness." Utter bullshit from McVile!
The witch goes on to say "sanction have a positive impact on getting people back into work." "It has a positive effect of moving people into work as a deterrent."

McVile goes on about the Netherlands and Germany and deterrents along with extra support who does the slut McVile think she can kid. Taking up offers of work and support we hear of JCP managers putting letters in claimants files saying they were sent just so they can inflict a sanction on the claimant. There is no support for claimants it's us against the DWP/JCP

Anyway just watch the link above I will possibly put my fist through the screen if I go through it again    

No money gone in

Last Thursday I was supposed to get my ESA paid into my account, it normally happens just before midnight the night before, but always before 8AM on the day in question. I normally get payments over a 3 week period then miss a week and it starts again.
the last time it happened I just emailed them and it was paid by the end of the day, I had just moved into the ex's old place, she died, and I moved back in to stop them kicking my son out. They wanted the place for a person with disabilities so I made a deal with them one of 2 areas or I stay put I got this place close to were I wanted.
Now to the point of last Thursday (18/12/14) they put £10 in for my personal independence payment Xmas bonus but not the ESA payment at 14:07 I emailed the DWP the following email

I am due a payment of ESA today 18/12/14 as of 13:46 today no payment has been received. Please make this payment within 48 hours or face action where only financial compensation will be adequate to compensate me. Their will also be a county court claim which will incur costs and I will add these to the amount.  The amount at present is £355.60, but once I send any papers to the court there will be no stopping the action until the court charges are paid plus £150 and the Employment and support allowance.

I just decided to phone them and according to them they have taken £61.10 a week off me for changing from DLA to PIP they issued an IS10 last Thursday they have reduced the money to £112: XX a week.
I am going to fill in the IS10 and post it straight back, I blew my top when they said they had deducted the SDP because it was a new claim for PIP but they have had quite some time to work out if I am entitled to it as they awarded me PIP before the end of July so it has taken them nearly 5 months to decide to send an IS10 and stop part of the benefit that I believe I am fully entitled too.
I was told if I hadn't received it by new years eve to call them WTF they issued it on the 18/12/14 that's why I wasn't paid. I will copy it and email the DWP an advance copy for their records and add 1 for my own records. If they are saying another week, well two weeks nearly from date they say they issued it then I assume they haven't even put it in the post yet.

Although I live with my son I live a totally separate life from him he gets up takes the dogs out then either goes out  or spends the day in his bedroom on the PC or watching TV. While I surf the net or watch some TV.

EDIT
It's close to 5 weeks and I am £61.10 a week down if they don't get a move on, say 2 weeks then I will kick off, I know they got it back the same day I got the IS10 24/12/14 because I emailed them a copy in advance. I am not giving them 12 or 13 weeks because that will mean loss of Carers allowance so I intend to get one or the other and before the 3 months are up.

George Iain Duncan Smith

George Iain Duncan Smith, GIDS as I refer to the cunt as, is planning to issue credit type cards to people on benefits. His universal credit plan is way off target and by all  accounts way over budget, he has written off millions calling it something or other.

GIDS latest plan is to get the unemployed to accept credit type cards where they cannot purchase alcohol or cigarettes, little does he know that those who want anything not on the list will sell the food to buy their cigs, alcohol or drugs, cards will also be cloned so they can buy food and sell food, even the good old chip & pin cards are not infallible to been cloned, having been on the receiving end of that a few times myself.
We need to shame GIDS, he isn't the first, the Thatcher government moved people to incapacity benefit to keep the jobless total down, possibly winning them more elections.
That cunt GIDS spouts off that nobody saw 2.6 million parked in incapacity benefit for years, we never heard a word from GIDS until Osborne started austerity then GIDS waded in with his savage cuts while Osborne capped benefit increases at 1% GIDS went along abusing figures and giving out a tick box WCA that were lies. Decision Makers should have reversed the decision of the corrupt ATOS and we would have had less appeals, but they decided to rubber stamp decisions.

PIP is been rolled out and I recently had my PIP interrogation, which I covertly recorded, I expected to lose the mobility part altogether but got enhanced on both so GIDS shove that up your arse.
GIDS and his fuck buddy Ester McVile always spout off about making work pay, how the fuck can work pay for a disabled person who is disadvantaged, no matter how qualified they are. 
George Iain Duncan Smith is always coming out with things like trials of cards then not going through with it when only 2 people/families sign up, that alone should tell the bald cunt, we do not want you, your policies, or your fucking government.

Discrimination

Today's topic is discrimination, very apt as I am reading about a blind person who failed to get ESA, just one thing makes me think a mandatory reconsideration will get her back on ESA, and that is

1. Cannot see well enough to read 16 point print at a distance of greater than 20cm.15 Points

  If that had been me I would have got up walked towards her and grabbed her fingers then said "for the recording you are holding up X number of fingers and I had to physically feel them to know that." Seriously though she should have asked for it recording. 

I am at a loss why the Muppet wasn't told in no uncertain terms "I am fucking blind I cannot see you or anything you are doing even if you were right in my fucking face."
The HCP would have been so abused if it was me they would have quit their job, never mind stopping the assessment, a poll asking whether she should be reassessed is showing 97% in favour, I say it should be overturned at reconsideration, the HCP struck off and compensation paid. 

What will cause the English to riot?

The title says it all really, WHAT WILL CAUSE THE ENGLISH TO RIOT?  Well it seems the English will take any shit the government will throw at them and take it. But seriously just when are people going to stand up to a corrupt government. They are victimising all the sick & disabled and unemployed. People on ESA are routinely placed in WRAG when they should be in the SUPPORT GROUP, then sanctioned because they don't do what some corrupt 3rd party says they should do.

People on JSA routinely find themselves sanctioned for not searching for enough jobs, or searching for too many jobs. Just how can you get a sanction for searching for too many jobs, I don't know, you would think there wasn't too many jobs you could search for or apply for, but I have heard people been sanctioned for silly things, like been just one minute late to sign on.
No benefit for weeks for just been one minute late through the door to sign on, yet people put up with it. Other country's will riot but the English just put up with the shit handed out by the government, it doesn't make any difference who they are they're all the same.

People on ESA are routinely told they are fit for work when it is clearly obvious they are ill either mentally or physically ill or have a terminal illness, there are many story's in the papers of people who have been found fit for work dying just after been found fit for work.

The only group they don't seem to be touching are the pensioners as any attack on them, the biggest drain of the benefits bill, over 60%, is because if they do take just a penny off them they will lose their vote pensioners are the biggest vote any party has and any attempt to remove any benefit they receive will been seen as an attack on them and will cost them the election.

I have been unemployed at a time when you just turned up and they said have you looked for work, the standard reply from all was yes! if you said no you got nothing. The corrupt JC+ do nothing for finding you work most of their jobs are first placed with agencies, by the time they get to the JC+ site they are gone, possibly filled internally or by someone who knows a friend that is looking for work.
The JC+ are corrupt as they fill the job search site with fake jobs or jobs that require the person to pay out money, even paying for CRB checks to see if they have a past history.

The English should rise up and riot, not attacking shops and the like but government buildings and its supporters, company's like ATOS, Capita, and various other government and council establishments.

 So England rise up and fight the corrupt government and reclaim your country!

SAVINGS

When you are on benefits how do they expect you to save, sit in use only the minimum of gas and electric, hardly wash, sit around all day in a dressing gown, well all of them will save you money, but you're likely to spend anything you save on other things like food.

In fact you are likely to find it impossible to save any money been on benefits, even if you get PIP, they claim PIP is not counted as a benefit or taken into account when working out benefits but if you put it away for a year you will find yourself in trouble for not declaring it has savings. The highest you can get in PIP, £552.20 over a year is £7178.60 nearly £1200 above the minimum savings limit, IMO the minimum savings limit has been £6,000 for as long as I can remember, if everything went up in line with inflation, each year then this £6,000 would be a lot more.

All the best accounts for savings happen to require sums of money that many people simply don't have, especially if you are on benefits.
They all require sums approaching £1,000 plus except one that requires £500 for a single unemployed person that's 2 months money, nearly, 7 weeks to be exact.

Given that PIP is £552.20 every 4 weeks, that's the maximum, in 8 years it will go up just over £50 given the 1% yearly rise, this cannot continue otherwise those who need a car will, if car prices rise, possibly be pushed into smaller, and smaller cars, until they cannot afford to drive, then the savings start to build up because they are house bound then they suddenly get no benefits at all because of the poxy £16,000 limit.

This seems an interesting article relating to savings:

All those with money, polititians, seem to have their money in off-shore accounts, says a lot about them doesn't it! Tony Blair seems to have property, UK property, registered abroad, this loophole should be closed and all back taxes should be claimed against them.

Interest rates are at there lowest since1974, so why should they penalise the lowpaid, unemployed, and in some cases pensioners, it is simple because this corrupt government can, they do and we the British public let them get away with it.

THE state of the UK

For years now the Gestapo government have left those in receipt of benefits getting just a 1% rise every year while council tax rises at 1.99%. Food costs more in 2008 I could live for a week on less than £10. On special occasions I used to buy steak, once getting over £120 worth for about £30, the shelf was full of it so I got the lot Rump, Sirloin, Rib-eye, I lived off steak for over a month. Now if you see steak reduced it's got a silvery look to it, like you are going to have the shits if you eat it.
As the years went by you would look forward to your benefits increase because you knew the amount meant you had just about caught up with the cost of living, not now though, when you have up to 30% bedroom tax a monthly increase of 2 to 3% on food, born out by the fact the packets are getting smaller, how long before your 400g tins become 380g or less.

It's now come to a point were people have to choose between eating or heating, while the corrupt Gestapo government put everything on expenses, that's right every penny they spend they try to claim as an expense, from the cup of Costa coffee to the paper clip to hold 2 sheets of paper together.

I would rather vote for a truly independent person who would have to learn the ropes of been a politician than some career cunt who knows all the scams from the official party memo.
All parliaments restaurants should be closed, or run to make a profit, no putting the food on expenses, no cheap drinks. All second homes sold and every penny going to the treasury. A tower block built for 650 with free Wi-Fi a pull out bed, shower room, 19" (MAX TV) and cooking facilities in each room, give them that free of charge, everything else they pay for including their fucking food. How many employers would stand for workers hitting them for £100 a week for shopping on top of their wages, NONE that's how many NOT ONE, so why can these parasites put in claims costing thousands per MP and millions between then all, every year.

MP's have even paid family members WIVES, SONS, DAUGHTERS, to do jobs for them when in fact they do fuck all, fuck all, except pocket the cash and get some unpaid intern to slave their guts out. George Iain Duncan Smith is one example employing his wife to do fuck all while paying her £34,000 per year, I think that was the sum, many other parasites (MP's) have done this as well

My local MP spent £350, I assume it's for a year, on computer rental and over £100 on shredder hire what the fuck is this cunt on a decent shredder can be bought for less than £100 why the fuck do they hire them. He spent £489 on printer hire I suppose it's a laser printer and he calls them out to change the ribboned. They even have the gall to use every mode of transport available to them from a bike which he no doubt put on expenses to his car and the train paying top price for the ticket and possibly first class for the unlimited Wi-Fi. 

Work Focused Interviews

Today it's about work focused interviews, in just over 4 years I have had 3, yes just 3 WFI's, that's one for every assessment for ESA, they were split over 2 assessments periods, with none for the present period.
The first one with A4e (All 4 Emma) was in 2010 I slept through most of that, the woman said I should be in support group, but thinking they could go the other way I didn't bother appealing as I thought it wasn't worth it for just over £5 a week, besides I had over £400 every 4 weeks DLA I was giving my car up because of fits and stokes I had while in hospital.
For the first one my daughter was with me and they could see I was out of it as I entered, they still took 25 minutes with the interview just to pass the time and get paid.

that was it until 2 years had passed when I was given 12 months in WRAG, again, on the same day I got 3 letters from the DWP, I didn't know which to open first so I opened the middle one, it was for the WFI, I knew straight away I was in one of the 2 groups, next it was award letter which stated the 12 months and contacting me again ON OR AFTER A DATE it confirmed I was in WRAG again, the final letter was how much I would get and a breakdown of it into its various components.

End of July 2012 and I attend the WFI to be told after waiting 10 minutes past the appointment time the person has had to leave due to a family emergency, probably saw I would be recording him, which I was, this quickly turned from a WFI into a maternity benefits claim for my pregnant daughter. Then in December I received another WFI letter with a different person this interview lasted only a few minutes saying to appeal for support group next time and she wrote on the appointment letter for my son to contact her with my mobile number, he never saw this I binned it as soon as I got home.

So there you have it my 3 brushes with death at the hands of the DWP. With my last ESA50 I did send the first one back blank, because they sent it to me after 10 months so they got the blank form back with a copy of the ESA72 page 2 that clearly stated WE WILL CONTACT YOU AGAIN ON OR AFTER [DATE] So with the time it took them to ask to send me another form about 1 month had passed and I returned the form to ATOS as late as possible, since July 2013 I haven't been bothered by the DWP for WFI's.
Just goes to show that if you are prepared to stand up to these vindictive cunts they buckle and cave in.
