   It's almost as if IDS has grown a conscience.  Almost.

He's after the top job. Heaven help us...

It was announced live by the (disabled centric) Last Leg programme last evening. I punched the air and whooped. 

Then 2 seconds later realised it could all be a coup for the PM position that is coming up..... 

And loads of their party were trying to get the PIP cuts stopped.... so he would not have been in a very tenable position anyway...

The Universal Credit thing's gonna be a mess, too.

If Prissy gets the job, she's worse than IDS...

UC was his pipedream of reducing admin costs and making payments easier to change with any change of circumstances. Alas his dream was soon shattered by cuts, cuts and cuts. PIP too, was supposed make things easier, but then along came ATOS and far too many people were found to be actually disabled, with court cases running up huge bills.

But he is total twat anyway.

   He's already led the Tories.  Didn't do them or him much good.

So... Gideon wants to cut the deficit...

Pity they Tories have caused it, innit?

The British Taxpayer foots the bill.

I called the DWP yesterday and asked why I am still receiving Income Support.

"There's a backlog, so don't spend the money as we will have to recover it".

So I told the Council, who cannot stop my Housing Benefit and Community Charge Benefit until told to do so by the DWP.

The answer was almost exactly the same.

Eejits.

feckin eejits, is more correct

Just proves that we never get to see the truth, just what stylists and the like come up with. Although it has ever been thus, up to a point, it all really started with Thatcher. Then, of course, Blair took it to the extreme.
