A story so astonishing many assumed it was an April Fool is breaking in Scotland after sleazy welfare-to-work parasites the Lennox Partnership were caught fining unemployed people for looking at their phones or having their hands in their pockets.
According to the local press, the Lennox Partnership are contracted to run training services for unemployed people by the SNP controlled North Ayrshire Council. This training involved participants being fined for often trivial reasons such as ‘tutting’, swearing or answering their phones. Whilst the lowest level of fine was just 10p, those on the course could be fined as much as £5 if their phone rang outside of designated break times. After all it’s not like people looking for a job might have a good reason to take a phone call in the middle of day.
Even the DWP are appalled, with the Daily Record reporting they have suspended referrals to the STRIVE programme run by the Lennox Partnership. Those behind the schme are unrepentent, with North Ayrshire Council claiming that they are just trying to “change behaviours and instil a professional attitude”. Participants who refuse to pay the fines are required to leave the course raising fears they may face benefit sanctions for refusing to take part in ‘work related activity’
The company say that their scheme is entirely voluntary and nobody will be sanctioned should they choose to leave. This reveals a shocking ignorance of the current situation faced by claimants who are subject to benefit sanctions for ever more trivial reasons. It is Jobcentres, not the Lennox Partnership, who decide whether a sanction should be imposed.
The STRIVE programme is aimed at long term unemployed people, and it is possible that some participants may have care and support needs meaning safeguarding rules should be in place to prevent this kind of financial coercion. The Lennox Partnership also boast on their website that some participants in the STRIVE programme have been as young as 16. It is unclear whether they also fine children.
Whilst the legalities of the scheme are murky this practice is clearly unethical. With the ever-present threat of sanctions hanging over unemployed people’s heads it is little more than extortion. Whatever mealy mouthed excuses the Lennox Partnership come out with, the experience of claimants is the same. This company are demanding money from some of the poorest people in Scotland with the unspoken menace that their benefits may be taken away if they refuse.

There’s nothing murky about it, it’s criminal, if they tried that with me I would arrest the first person who tried to demand payment from me.
Absolutely martyn500 unfortunately a lot of either vulnerable or gullible will fall prey to this.
Sorry to hijack the thread but has anyone tried phoning the Universal Credit number today? No money in bank, a possible induction to get me off the actual dole and I can’t even afford the bl**dy train fare thanks to another admin error. Each time I try to phone the number you get the answering machine spiel then it cuts off a good few minutes later without any explanation in the recorded message. It’s a bl**dy shambles.
Typical of the new approach of systematic contempt for the unemployed.
” Even the DWP are appalled ” because they didn’t think of it first !!!
I wonder how much they would fine you for trumping – £20, wouldn’t put it past the F____g parasites!!!
More if it stunk!
I thought this was a spoof to begin with. But seeing the story in the Scottish press, and THE NATIONAL too, I realized it was real. But it is also illegal. These folks have no authority whatsoever to impose any kind of such fine, and if they have, I should be arrested for theft ! We could say the same of benefit sanctions, but as that’s the Regime, it is a bit more difficult to prove how illegal it may be in the circumstance. Tho, there will definitely be times when DWP staffs impose illegal sanctions. It’s getting the means to prove that, and get something done about it, which isn’t always easy for many.
As for this STRIVE thing, replied to another poster earlier on the “April 15 working day” Post. It looks like it deals mainly with the younger out of work folks, and the case histories they give out appear to be the easier to help ones too.
However, that said, it really is a telling attitude that they view young out of work ppl in this manner, they think such a thing as this is acceptable.
It should be closed down, or at the very least, the initiative be given to others with a better way of doing things, if it must continue. Tho who would be any better, would be hard to find as most of these things are based on exploitation of one kind or other.

Tories Get Just Seven Votes In Council Election
https://www.morningstaronline.co.uk/a-a31d-Tories-get-just-seven-votes-in-council-election#.Vv__2vkrLV3
sian – that’s really good news – the Tories must be pretty much hated in Wales now!
Many in Wales don’t like the Tories, but increasing numbers seem to want to vote for them. In 2015 11 Tories were elected as MPs in Wales, (best result the Tories in Wales have had in 30 years) a huge difference to May 1997 when Wales became a Tory free zone. 11 Tory MPs means that more than a quarter of MPs representing constituencies in Wales are Tory.
I wish it could be said that the Tories were hated by far more people in Wales, but sad to say, more and more seem to be attracted to Tory values, or worse, have become bewitched by UKIP.
The really funny thing is… he needed 10 people to stand him, so he lost 3 by the time the vote happened. Now that is bad, LoLz.
I would have thought that this was indeed, illegal.
Firstly and foremostly, where is the ‘written’ guidance for these fines and ‘who’ have these ‘fines’ been issued by? Is it the ‘provider’? – it certainly sounds very much like it could be.
It would be interesting to see what would happen if a ‘trainee’ said ‘what authority do you have to do this’? – I AM NOT PAYING ANY FINES IMPOSED. What happens then – is he/she going to be reported for a sanction?
“Are you going to take me to Court for not paying a 10p – £7.50p ‘made up by you’ fine”?
I’d have thought that this ‘provider’ could be on very sticky ground here!
If it did come to Court, surely the ‘provider’ would be found to be acting illegally in this particular case.
Must be quite discriminatory as well.
I would punch them in the fucking throat if they done that to me. A quiet word with the supervisor when no one else is listening would be enough to make the cunt think twice with fucking with me.
If more people in large numbers acted like you say you would, Cephalus, noone would dare sanction anybody.
When your back is against the wall you have to fight back. The word with the supervisor would be along the lines of “You better be careful with the way you act, if you get me sanctioned I will find you and i will kill you!” His/hers word against yours if they try to report you.
You sound like a real tough guy, Cephalus. You sound almost like that Richard Widmark character, Commanche Tod. A reeeeeaaaallll tough Guuuuuuuyyyyy….
What! Another Tory landslide – they surely must be fucking joking!
They definitely must not be allowed to do any of this shite.

Whilst on the subject of poor claimants being charged between 10p and £7.50p in concocted fines – please do not forget this one (Channel 4 News has covered this a lot recently, including launching their own investigation into it). Many of Cameron’s high and mighty cohorts may well have broken Electoral Law with this one.
dpac.co.uk/2016/03/conservative-mps-broke-the-law-to-win-the-2015-general-election-the-canary-torydump/
The Electoral Commission and the Police really need to look into these very serious and also, potentially criminal actions.
The full story can also be found on the dpac website (approx mid-way down this webpage on the right-hand side)
Notjing but OUTRIGHT theft with threats, still, what do you expect from the gestapo when they are looking for disreputable scammers to fleece poor people
I would let the first fucker who demanded money off me with menaces know I would call the cops on them for extortion and abuse of office, and when they got back from sorting that out at the knick they could expect a house ‘warming’.
I notice they make a fat profit off the state. Companies House accounts here: https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/SC111183/officers
I also notice they have a local councillor on their director list. Can’t see from which party.
The councilors listed there were all Labour councillors in the Clydebank-Dumbarton area at the time. All are no longer serving coumcillors. All resigned within a year or so of being appointed.

Absolutely stunning experiences – they both ended up in ‘charity shops’, probably doing ‘full-time’ hours for fuck all in payment. Disgraceful – and if this Lennox crap think that these are ‘good outcomes’ for these girls, then they really need to look at themselves and exactly what they are doing.
There was some girl on a jobcentre ‘course’; admittedly she was one sandwich short of a picnic, but in a garbled voice she said: “I volunteer in the Salvation Army charity shop for 5 days a week and I am really happy”, said with a great big idiotic grin on her mentally-defective lobotomised face. This is what the jobcentre want to turn their clients into; this is the ‘mould’, and they will keep on pressing….

I would suspect the venue burnt to the ground after the first sanction.

Jobseeker’s shock at DWP ‘work for benefits’ scheme
http://www.heraldscotland.com/news/14400600.Jobseeker_s_shock_at_DWP__work_for_benefits__scheme/?ref=mr&lp=6
From the comments: “ALL the best jobs are taken before they are advertised.” So true. “If you ever get a good job, hang on to it because you wont get another one!” Too right!
“There are folks who have been volunteering quite happily, because they wanted to do something they thought useful, but ended losing their benefits, as it was not the kind of thing some DWP advisor wanted their “clients” to do. They wanted them in at some useless course at a jobcenter on how to update a CV or something stupid, when they had no need for that. Or wanted them to work gratis, in a local charity shop, because the charity shop had a contract with DWP from where it would get its staff, or a discount store or something. So if you think volunteering is a good thing, then according to DWP there are the wrong kinds of volunteering, and the right kinds! ” Yup, the only ‘right’ kind of ‘volunteering’ is in a Sally Ann ‘charity’ shop or a ‘recycling’ plant!
Shouldn’t be any such thing as volunteering in modern society as the crooks and the con men use it as an excuse to rip the piss out of people, especially unemployed people. Anyone who does any job of work should be paid for it, otherwise you get into this David Camoron ‘Big Society’ mindset. So called well meaning types who volunteer to do jobs for nothing have ruined employment chances for a lot of people.
As long as there are charitable organizations there will be poverty.
We need secure legislation on welfare that prevents this.
Big Dick talks about achievers and success moving forward, yet wants to move backwards regarding welfare, which was set up to put an end to poverty in cyclical employment.
I thought the better of mentioning any actual charities by name, but Sal A. were the main ones I had in mind.
Should I ever becomes unemployed, or if I’m told to do more if UC ever comes in, I’ll volunteer like a shot. At our local unemployed workers centre helping ppl in conflict with JCP!
Just tweeted our First Minister Nicola Sturgeon about your linked to article, asking her if she thinks that is acceptable and if not then what are the SNP doing about this kind of gross exploitation? I’ll let you know what is said in the reply. BTW i’m an SNP voter so this will be kind of interesting. If i don’t believe the reply is satisfactory then i may have to think about taking my vote elsewhere.
Raining – It’ll be interesting to see what she says in reply to you!
It’s a no reply Paul. I thought as much! Politicians don’t like being nailed and put on the spot on the big issues like the exploitation of already vulnerable people. They prefer to avoid commenting and pretend they never even read the question.
Raining – Yes, I am not surprised at all my friend. These ‘politicians’ want to maintain the ‘status quo’ – not upsetting their ‘hard-working’ voters – anyone who is poor or are ‘low-paid’ – really they do not seem to care about. She is a representative of the SNP – nevertheless – ‘she’ is now quite a ‘high-paid’ politician – who, in reality does not care too much for the ‘poorer’ people of society. It seems to happen all of the time – a local MP gets promoted to Government (and gets more money) – gets promoted to a Government Minister (and gets more money) – gets promoted to a ‘First Minister’ (as in our shameful P.M. Cameron!) and they forget about the poor people. THEY THEN LOOK AFTER THEMSELVES – ONLY! THEY LOVE THE POWER OF THEIR ‘NEW’ POSITION – and fuck everyone who is any way ‘below’ them.

Hello Raining. Thank you for reaching out to the First Minister. Since coming to power the Scottish National Party has brought hundreds of thousands of jobs and billions of pounds of inward investment to Scotland. Scotland has been transformed into a vibrant, dynamic powerhouse economy. Scotland is now recognised as a leader on the world stage. We trust we have answered your question.

The people that will pay for the jobs to be maintained from the public purse will be the poorest in society as usual.
“THE NEW LIVING WAGE CON TRICK”
I am really rather concerned at the publicity and celebration surrounding the new ‘living’ wage.
The television advertisement tells us, unequivocally, that every person currently subsisting on the minimum wage, will be better off, to the tune of 50 pence for every hour you work. This is clearly untrue, and verges upon deliberately misleading, and perhaps, should be referred to the Advertising Standards Agency.
Firstly, in order to receive Working Tax Credits, someone must work 16 or more hours per week. Anyone working 16 hours per week, will receive £115.20, which is above the upper threshold to claim Working tax Credits. Consequently, anyone earning the new ‘living’ wage will gain 50 pence an hour, at the expense of their Tax Credits. Consequently, they will not be 50 pence per hour better off.
Similarly, those working more hours, who will also find their Tax Credits evaporating, will find that they suddenly cross the threshold for Income tax and, increased, National Insurance payments, so the, much lauded, 50 pence per hour extra will be diminished further.
Workers on the minimum wage may well see themselves much worse off, even those receiving Universal credit, following their ‘generous’ pay rise, their 50 pence per hour will, literally, end up being a pocket full of nothing!
“JEREMY HUNT, A FIRST CLASS CUNT”

Stephen Crabb has put Maximus ‘Under Scrutiny’
STEPHEN CRABB, the new work and pensions secretary, is seeking to tear up government contracts with private “welfare to work” contractors as part of a radical overhaul of Iain Duncan Smith’s benefits revolution.
In the first sign that Crabb will make changes to the government’s flagship reforms, he held a crisis meeting about the troubled universal credit on Thursday and ordered officials to come clean with him and the public about the problems.
Whitehall sources say one of Crabb’s first moves will be to “get out of” problematic government contracts.
One firm under scrutiny is Maximus, which replaced Atos in providing health assessments for claimants of the employment and support allowance, the new benefit for the disabled.
The National Audit Office (NAO) reported in January that since Maximus took on the contract for fitness-for- work tests in March last year the cost to the taxpayer had doubled to £579m. It also said that one in 10 reports is rejected by the government as below standard, compared with one in 25 under Atos.
Maximus did not respond to a request for comment but at the time of the NAO report a spokesman said the company had brought in new staff “to meet the requirements of the contract going forward. We are confident about the future and remain fully committed to delivering a high quality service.”
A senior Whitehall source said: “Stephen [Crabb] is a sceptic of throwing ever-more millions [at private companies]. One contract in particular — Fit for Work — he will be looking to get out of that contract pretty quick. Fit for Work is an early candidate for some serious reworking.”
During Thursday’s meeting, which lasted for six hours, Crabb “lifted the bonnet” on universal credit.
Only 200,000 people have claimed the benefit despite forecasts that 1m would have enrolled by 2014.
Crabb ordered weekly updates on the programme, which merges six benefits into one, and told officials to stop blocking freedom of information requests.
From next month five jobcentres a month will begin operating the full universal credit system for whole families, not just servicing single claimants.
The source said: “We need much greater transparency. This is such a public-facing project, we have nothing to fear from public scrutiny.”
Crabb will lay out his approach to welfare in a speech on April 12, saying he wants “work coaches” who are delivering universal credit to be held in the same esteem as nurses are in the NHS.
OMG just heard the Conservative Party political broadcast on tv, nearly puked. Lost count of how many times they used thewords “hard work”, “decent people who get up early”, “hard working people”, “people who work hard” etc etc. Aaaaaaargh! FUCK OFF CAMERON.
Talking of “decent people who get up early”, I have a 8.50am signing appointments tomorrow, FFS. I’ve done all the required jobsearch but I bet the idle bastards can’t be arsed reading it.
Not worked it out yet? It is on purpose! And eventually you won’t bother. And then you will get pulled up by the ‘hit squad’. And what have you got to show? Nothing! Instant sanction for not actively seeking employment. Don’t fall into the jobcentre’s trap. ALWAYS cover your butt and keep a job-search record. And make sure they are aware of it too. They try all sort of trick even down to lying that they don’t have any diaries. And look at you as if you are a fucking idiot for coming in with a job-search log. They are waiting to pounce.
I recorded it all on UJM, every website I looked at, what time I look, every job description I read and what time I read it, every job I apply for, where it’s at, on which website, what time I applied, Reference number of the job, what time I leave home & how long it takes me to walk to them jobcentre and vse versa. There’s reams of it and it would take them à while to read it, plus it would be a very boring read. But they want jobsearch evidence, so I make sure there’s tons of it, fortnight after fortnight, I never stop recording every slightest detail. It’s easy really, and it pisses them off big style. ;p
Fuck The Jobcentre – That’s the way to do it – record everything – and then read it back to them – they would probably really enjoy listening!!
I signed on early this morning and sure enough they didnt check my jobsearch or even mention it.Its fucking absurd, just à charade.
Next time print out the rules and regulations of the DWP and give them that as your job search then.
Cameron and the rest of his Tory scumfuckers wouldn’t know what hard work is even if it jumped on them and shagged their arses!!!!
Meanwhile, Cameron’s late father is in the news for running dodgy companies in Panama and not paying a penny in tax.
It appears that Cameron’s late father was a FUCKING TAX DODGING SCUMBAG. As Prime Minister, David Cameron on behalf of his thief of a father needs to pay back every last penny of the tax money owed to the state. Why should Ian ‘I’m a CUNT with no shame’ Cameron avoid paying tax when the rest of us have already paid into the system?
“FOODBANKS AND SANCTIONS” for the very poorest claimants!
In an evening where we’ve seen both a BBC 6.55PM “Election Broadcast” on behalf of the “Conservative Party”, extoling the hallowed virtues of the Tories – ranging from ‘looking after the NHS’ to the ‘fake families’ – buying their own ‘Tory subsidised’ homes and ‘looking after the ‘hard-working’ families in Britain – those families ‘doing the right thing’ of ‘being in work’ (this is nauseaously sickening) – then, we were confronted with the revelations from the BBC ‘Panorama’ programme that ‘our’ P.M.’s father Ian Cameron was fully involved in a ‘legal’ tax avoidance scheme.
WHAT A LOAD OF SHITE – I WOULD RATHER VOTE FOR SATAN THAN VOTE FOR CAMERON – FUCK HIM – AND FUCK HIS GOVERNMENT.
Meanwhile – IDS & Stephen Crabb – we have not forgotten you twats – both of you have got to watch your backs!
Meanwhile back in Blighty the land of the con man, bent politician and crooked banker, there’s more bad news on the pension front as tons of people are warned they might lose all their pension savings and most younger people in their 20’s and 30’s are warned they will lose sums like £19k over their retirement years.
Ah yes good to see that when you’re a Hard Working Taxpayer Who Does The Right Thing then you’re looked after when you’re a pensioner in the good ole UK.
Of course then when your money runs out they’ll put you back to work in a fast food establishment or similar to pay for your pension.
What a wonderful country we have eh.

However Gidion and his mates will be between page 6 million and 9 million, and by the time we get to that page Russia will be at war with China, aliens would be plotting to crash into Big Ben, and the Anti-Christ will arise with Atlantis.
Just another day in the UK, and the DWP will still try and squeeze out a few more sanctions.

Public Accounts Committee urges DWP to challenge fit-to-work test contractors.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) “appears to have repeatedly misjudged what contractors can deliver and the uncertainties underlying what can be achieved”, according to the Public Accounts Committee’s (PAC) latest report on health and disability assessments.
The report examines delivery of assessments for Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), and Personal Independence Payments (PIP). It finds that despite reductions in the backlog of assessments, and a major contractor change after the early termination of Atos’ contract in 2015, claimants are “still not receiving an acceptable level of service from contractors”.
There are “particular concerns for claimants with fluctuating and mental health conditions,” it says.

Shouldn’t be any such thing as volunteering in modern society as the crooks and the con men use it as an excuse to rip the piss out of people, especially unemployed people. Anyone who does any job of work should be paid for it, otherwise you get into this David Camoron ‘Big Society’ mindset. So called well meaning types who volunteer to do jobs for nothing have ruined employment chances for a lot of people.

Thanks for the update. At least the councillors are talking it a bit more seriously now. However, if I had anything to do with it, I would dismiss the Lennox lot now.
As a Council we are working tirelessly to boost the local economy
By paying pimps to force others to stand in a charity shop for their benefits and calling it ‘a job’.

And before ‘these programmes’ even existed… 90%+ of the unemployed went on to find work.
The whole thing is just a scam.
I would like to avoid paying any tax for the next thirty years just like David Cameron’s father. Come on Dave, you know all the right people to make this happen. Give Santa a call now.
I’m still waiting for your call Davey old boy. Oh I get it, it’s only for the likes of dodgy millionaires and Tory donors, not honest people like us.
I don’t know if it’s wordpress or this fucking phone but the comments are invisible again. Anyway, I was just going to say that whilst the Labour party political bradcast on tv just now went on about Oosbrne missing all his targetsand making pensioners & mothers worse off, note that there was no mention of the unemployed, no mention of sanctions or universal credit, no mention of JSA being illegally underpaid by 40%, no mention of people being expected to survive on 73 poxy quid a week, or of thoudands left to simply starve, no mention of endless jobsearch requirments when there are no fucking jobs, no mentipn of the deliberate demonization and persecutipn of anyone without à. Job. The unemployed are far too toxic to deserve even Corbyn’s support.
The unemployed are not getting their fair share of the benefit pot which is a disgrace, especially like you said there are no jobs available worth having, that is why they are using the unemployed to do the crap jobs or charity work – again a bloody disgrace which I hope this government answers for as well as the last two governments tory/lib and new labour also.

Its is all planned, the PM of Iceland was smiling as he got onto his car, he has played his part in this “controlled” cull and will be paid well, so will Cameron, he has his script and he must not deviate from the theatre that is being played out. Its all one big mind game for the masses.
Meanwhile in other news, poor people will still have to pay tax, clean their own toilets, pay for a spare bedroom out of 73 quid a week, and suffer the on-going social engineering of the governments efforts to place all the poor people north of Birmingham.
We are still suffering from withdrawals symptoms from ‘Trapped’ – the Icelandic thriller which has ended it’s run recently on BBC4. We had to wrap up warm it watch it what with all that stunning snowy scenery. At least it will save us having to turn up the heating 🙂
One thing still stands – one does not go off and get involved in offshore companies unless one has either something to hide and/or do not want to pay any of the ‘tax’ required. Either way – it’s potential for ‘crooked dealing’ or at least, being accused of having done so. Ian Cameron has only done what so many of these rich and uncaring cunts have done and are still doing, burying any conscience that they may have – getting ever richer, whilst the poor get poorer. Working people have to pay tax in Britain whether they like it or not, (once a certain level is reached).
This one today that Cameron has ‘fluffed’ may well come back to bite his arse in the future! He should have answered the question(s) directly and it makes his views of tax crackdowns look very dicey indeed!

Unfortunately, he didn’t say when he’d do it.
At the time, some 1,456 days ago at the time of writing, The Prime Minister was reportedly “relaxed and happy” about the idea of making his tax affairs public.
And not just him – Downing Street signalled all senior ministers should make an open declaration of their financial records.
According to the Guardian, sources close to the PM said: “The prime minister is relaxed about the idea of the tax returns of senior cabinet ministers being published – but wants the opportunity to explore how this might work.”
Presumably, he’s still off exploring.

“CUNTFACE CRABB READY TO STEAL REST OF YOUR DISABILITY ALLOWANCES”
So the plan is to continue using the discredited perversion of ‘biopsychosocial’ theories (that claim illness is a personal choice and is all in the mind) as the basis for any assessment of a claimant’s illness; to put anyone with “mild or moderate” health conditions such as cancer or Parkinson’s on the welfare-to-work treadmill, with sanctions applied if they fail to participate (even if that failure is due to their illness); and to have all sickness benefit reduced to the same level as Jobseekers’ Allowance.
That’s right. Cutting ESA for people in the Work-Related Activity Group was only part of it. If the plan to roll sickness benefits into Universal Credit is implemented, then people in the Support Group – those with serious conditions that are not expected to improve within the foreseeable future – will also lose a huge amount of their weekly income.
All this from the Conservative Government that has claimed it has no further plans to attack benefit claimants.
Here’s the icing on the cake: The Reform paper recommends that savings from the ESA rate reduction could be reinvested in PIP and in support services – but there is absolutely no evidence to suggest that Mr Crabb is planning to do so. Quite the opposite, in fact. It seems he is cherry-picking the recommendations that suit him and abandoning the rest.
It seems clear he is also planning to abandon the sick and disabled to an uncertain and desperate future.

Osborne needs to spend some money on a system that works if he wants us to spend our time looking for non-existant jobs.
ok , lets clear up this issue of fines for tutting and hands in pockets ect.
first of all there is ” ILLEGAL and unlawful ” these are 2 very different terms that apply 2 very different definitions.
what these scum bag cock roaches are doing by fining people is UNLAWFUL!!.
they are basically demanding monies with menace.
these twats have no authority under the law what so ever to initiate these so called fines. that’s why the dwp has pulled the plug on this bunch of creatures because the dwp know full well this practice is unlawful!!.
it it was not then the dwp would happily endorse this tactic.
It is all very illegal. The local council has suspended all referrals to the thing for the time being. They ought to have ended the whole setup.

Carot, no one told me there was any carrot. If I had know there would be carrot, I would have bought my knife and fork.
Talking of carrots, we saw a woman punch a security guard in the face when he tried to pull her up over a bag of carrots. And that is after she had punched the self-scan assistant and knocked her out of the way. A 45p bag of carrots! Anyway, she escaped 😀

It is scum like this that give disabled people a bad name. Despicable!
A couple who claimed £64,000 in benefits for severe disabilities have been caught on camera lifting heavy hanging baskets at their local florist.
Arthur McCarroll, 58, and his wife Susan, 65, were targeted by undercover investigators from the Department for Work and Pensions.
McCarroll claimed it took him four minutes to walk just three metres (9.8ft) and said he was so ‘severely disabled’ he was in danger of falling on a daily basis.
The pair from Larch Road in Kingswinford were both handed suspended sentences at Dudley Magistrates Court.
The video, which was shown to the court, shows the husband and wife walking freely across the road carrying hanging baskets. It also captured Arthur loading heavy boxes into a car.
Susan McCarroll had wrongly claimed £35,040 in disability benefits since 2002 while her husband received £29,203. Both pleaded guilty to fraud.
McCarroll was sentenced to 36 weeks in prison suspended for two years while his wife was handed a 26-week sentence suspended for two years.
They were also both given a six-week curfew from 7pm until 7am.
His wife said she was unable to walk, couldn’t cook a meal and needed help going to the toilet as well as getting in and out of bed and chairs.

Many in Wales don’t like the Tories, but increasing numbers seem to want to vote for them. In 2015 11 Tories were elected as MPs in Wales, (best result the Tories in Wales have had in 30 years) a huge difference to May 1997 when Wales became a Tory free zone. 11 Tory MPs means that more than a quarter of MPs representing constituencies in Wales are Tory.
I wish it could be said that the Tories were hated by far more people in Wales, but sad to say, more and more seem to be attracted to Tory values, or worse, have become bewitched by UKIP.

The shit could hit the fan over this one. How can this man’s HMRC Dept go chasing after some self-employed person who they think that they owe them £30 when Cameron has done this sort of thing?
His position is, at the very least untenable with regard to him chairing the talks on ‘tax-transparency’ which are coming up shortly – he is now seemingly a dishonest laughing stock!
Thanks for 2nd link. Cameron’s biggest mistake here, is to claim it a “private matter” a few days back when the story first broke. The fact is, it would indeed be a private thing had not this info come out. It would have been a bit much for him to be able to control his old Pop’s accounts, but that he must’ve known about this since his late high school years must be obvious. And he would have been benefiting for all of that time.
We wonder how many other top tory MPs are part of this, and are themselves avoiding tax, etc. The entire Government should go, not just Cameron. Anew general election is what we need. Corbyn may not be too great, but can only be better than this lot!
IDS crying! – He should be put onto the receiving end of his hideous and cruel policies – it is he and he alone at the top of the DWP who gave all of the orders – and no doubt, the suicides are still going on even now.

What I, Big Dick McPhee, have learned in life is that we are all created equal, we all have the same opportunities and chances in life. You “people”; you whiners, you need to stop feeling sorry for yourselves and – and start showing some appreciation for the winners. People of the calibre of Cameron, Osborne, Johnson and even IDS are successful, successful through their own endeavours. Remember that you jealous rabble of underachievers. Remember that and say a prayer of thanks to the millions of citizens who rise early and work all day, or even throughout the night so that you scum can get a free house, and free money, and can buy fake tobacco and booze and watch daytime tv. Remember that You ungrateful feckless and fecund scum – and say thank you.

George Ian is only where he is because he married into money. Cameron is only where he is because his Pop had money. Boris and Gideon are only where they are because their folks had many pesos too……Otherwise, nobody would ever have heard of them, as they have not the slightest bit of talent. Okay…..of the four listed, Boris does have perhaps the most intelligence. All this “Buffoon Boris” stuff is a getup. However, his views on things are a bit weird a lot of the times.

Resign David Cameron: Calls for PM to go snowball ahead of Downing Street Protest.
Furious demands for the resignation of David Cameron grew overnight, following his sensational admission that he had £30,000 stashed away in his Dad’s tax haven.
The hashtag #ResignCameron is the number one trend on Twitter at the time of writing, with MPs, celebrities and furious Brits calling for the PM to step down.
Fugitive whistleblower Edward Snowden led the charge last night, within hours of the Prime Minister coming clean about the offshore trust.
And support for a protest planned for Saturday outside Downing Street is gaining momentum.

Olive Oyl has had a £53000 per year hand out from the taxpayer to employ a ‘fashion adviser’ who is now on this fantastic salary!
No one seems to be able to stop these bastards from wasting taxpayer’s money!
Disgraceful – not only that though – isn’t Yardley JCP the one that was reported on here had a poster up regarding ESA claimants?
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/samantha-cameron-special-adviser-fashion-aide-taxpayer-salary-530000-a6974181.html
It is totally scandalous that Samantha Cameron hires a fashion assistant at Public expense, when she is herself even richer than her husband. The family lists is like something from the Victorian age, of great great this and that, and links to past Kings, earls, and lords, and prime ministers into the bargain.
Of course that is not her fault, but taking full advantage of it is!
It’s not like in USA where the First Lady has some kind of an official role, much the same way the king has a queen in Europe. So if she wants to have all those trappings, she has the pesos to pay for it herself.
As with Iceland, this folly of the wife should lead to the fall of the Prime Minister.
Also, one thing about “Lady” Cameron is that she is an Ambassador for SAVE THE CHILDREN !!! We would hope this charity disassociates itself from this wretched little thing. How can she claim to care about all these poor children, and all the awful things they have to suffer in their little lives, when she is fully supporting policies that are destroying children’s lives in UK? Destroying their families, and she goes in response, hires a 50,000 something damsel to help fill her dairy out, and help her decide which nice stuff to wear to whatever bash she is going to. And no doubt, advise on what would not a be suitable going to some charity thing.when she is going to be with the poorer folks. She will have to look a bit more mundane them.
Just as tory MPs are being forced out of patron roles for disability groups, she too should be forced out of that charity.
We wonder what on earth the ppl who run these charities are thinking of getting this crowd involved…..could it be their own personal rewards?
It certainly isn’t for the good of the charity anyway!
Gordon – Well said my friend.
‘Save The Children’ (it used to be ‘Save The Children Fund’) is just another so called ‘Charity’ – fully designed to get as much money out of people as possible – often to fund the CEO’s lifestyle – the new ‘mansion’ and the new ‘heated swimming pool for his/her family/friends.
The ‘Committee’ of this particular ‘Charity’ has, somehow allowed this far too priveleged woman to be an ‘ambassador’ of theirs.
They think no doubt – Samantha Cameron as a ‘patron’ of theirs – WILL draw more money in.
They need to kick her out, just the same as many of the other Tory M.P.’s/Ministers – THESE RICH AND PRIVELEGED PEOPLE SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO BE INVOLVED WITH ‘TRUE’ CHARITIES
Samantha Cameron’s husband David has been at the head of a Government which has brought poverty and death to too many now to be forgotten. His Ministers, including IDS have (by their actions and orders) have murdered and are continuing to murder at will.
The jury is out on Stephen Crabb – but, the indications are that he will be nothing other than a ‘clone’ of IDS.

“DWP MURDERS DISGUISED AS UK FLU OUTBREAK”
Quite enchanting the way our dodgy corrupt government tries it’s utmost to try and cover up the welfare slayings by citing that a rogue flu mini epedemic was the root of the cause………..
Sky News even had the temerity to feature an expert who put the deaths down to austerity induced benefit cuts. Mind you, the BBC will never seek to publish the truth being the mouthpiece of it’s zionist backers that pull the strings of neoliberal corporate greed that is tearing the very fabric of life apart at the seams.
On Radio Four ANY QUESTIONS, this Friday, evening, (April 8th), MP Frank Fields, said he thought junior doctors had a point, but that they were in danger of losing public support. He raised the point that If people die because of the strike action, the junior doctors could face a backlash.
When DWP staff allow thousands, and thousands to die, and thousands others to kill themselves, why is Frank Fields and others not demanding an end to all of that? Why no public backlash, and London media machine condemnation? I was not too impressed with this week’s offing. Digy Jones was, as usual appalling in his comments on just about everything, especially the NHS. “Everybody works a 7 day week”.
“FRANK FIELD, THE TORY SYMPATHISER”
He always has. In his youth, he was a member of the Conservative party, but he was thrown out for opposing South Africa’s apartheid system. Shortly after becoming the MP for Birkenhead in 1979, he took on Militant and threatened to stand as an independent if they attempted to deselect him. And then there are his views on the welfare state, which place him firmly in a category all of his own, certainly within Labour. Put most simply, he believes it degrades the very people it is meant to serve, that it creates a benefit-dependent, work-shy sub-class. ‘It’s our fault as politicians to have put temptation in front of people,’ he has said. ‘If the system pays people more on incapacity benefit [than jobseekers’ allowance], it’s human nature to claim the higher amount. We have to remove the incentive.’ In short, Frank Field wants to sack the nanny from the nanny state.
It was because of these maverick ideas that he was invited, when New Labour was elected in 1997, to serve under Harriet Harman at the Department of Social Security to plan reform of the benefits system. Or, at least, that was why he thought he had been asked to do the job. The green paper he produced was certainly radical: he wanted more people to take out private pensions rather than depend on the state. He wanted an attack on benefit fraud and tighter controls on incapacity benefit as a way of getting more people back to work. He wanted the right to payments from the state to be matched with responsibilities by those receiving the cash. He made it clear that he detested means-testing, regarding it as demeaning and wanted, instead, flat-rate benefits.
http://www.theguardian.com/society/2006/jul/02/publicservices.theobserver
Sounds like Old Fieldsy was right don’t it? Like he was a prophet on a par with some bearded OT prophet. Welfare has created a benefit dependent sub class. Just watch them docs on Channel 5, or Jeremy Kyle.
Your government has created a dependent class because despite being the party of business, it is not creative enough to produce stable employment – IT CANNOT PRODUCE THE GOODS – at least not at a price that could compete with lower economy countries.

Well said Geoff – I blame the bstds who operate out of the city of London and who control most of the worlds central banks and controlled mass media.
Oh, and Marie, the reason why there is a Welfare State in the UK is precisely through the endeavours of those bastards working in the city. They make money that keeps the UK going.
You won’t know this but the reason why the UK is the fifth richest nation on earth is down entirely to the City of London and the banking industry. That is the only wealth creator in the UK and it makes the nation rich and pays for everything. If we were surviving on the revenue generated from tax raised by being a service industry, the nation would either now be a banana republic or bankrupt. Gedd it right, Marie. Godsakes, gedd it rart.
The City of London makes money for the greedy bankers, they take from the poor, that’s why there’s so much destitution – get it right Rog !!!
And Marie, the UK PLC makes money from global banking. What do you think pays for the NHS, NHS contributions? Are you that innocent? Outside of banking 90% of the working population work in supermarkets and shops. Their pathetic income tax contributions wouldn’t keep the UK afloat. Get real, Marie.
makes money from global banking
How does banking make money ?
90% of the working population work in supermarkets and shops.
How does moving stuff on and off shelves create wealth ?
Shut up Nonce. I know what I’m talking about. Keep shtum alright.
Don’t ever question me.

Now be a good un and go to sleep.
I knew you wouldn’t be able to handle a couple of real questions.
Bye bye, – for now.
So bent is the HMRC that a city banker’s cleaner pays more tax than the banker, so I think you will find that it is the working class that keep the economy afloat, daft dick.
Global banking makes more money from derivatives which the working class produce, or in payday loans which the working class borrow, nobody can afford a mortgage anymore other than buy to let landlords, so corrupt is the housing sector.
Indeed, it is the banking sector that generates the wealth that pays for schools and hospitals. Without the banking sector there would be no welfare state… 😉
The banking sector generates so much income it needs bailouts 🙂 🙂

“PRITI FUCKING DISGUSTING”
Just been watching the Cameron Out protest on that Kremlin funded station, RT. The protesters were the kind of Left Wing Pond Life rabble that write to this blog. What you scum don’t understand is that Priminister Cameron got a mandate to do what he does. He got 24% of the overall vote. His policies are popular with the electorate. Fucking you dole-ite scum and fucking you hard is popular. It’s a vote winner. At the next election he’ll get a bigger majority. He’ll get 30 – 35% of the vote. And that’s because we, the Great British Public, we hate you scum, you whingeing whining scum. We hate you and we want to see an end to the Welfare State. And if you can’t handle that, then TOUGH SHIT!
You might need the welfare state if you lose your job or become ill or disabled – think on NO DICK McFEE !!!!
People such as myself, Marie, we don’t need the welfare state. There’s work out there for anyone who needs it, yes, that’s right, even you, Marie. Even you could find gainful employment, if only you would try.
Have you ever thought about cleaning hotel rooms? 30 rooms per day for minimum wage, and if you’re lucky, a generous dollop of Tax Credit. I know people who do this, almost exclusively they are Eastern European. They do the jobs that Brits won’t do, but you could do it, Marie. And get some self respect back. Not living off others, as a parasite; but living from your own endeavours. You know that you want to, Marie.
Actually BIG DICK I have applied for hotel cleaning and various other menial low paid jobs, alas to no avail – they seem to prefer eastern europeans for some strange reason, I’d be quite happy to clean hotel rooms as it would release me from the clutches of the Department for Workfare and Persecution ☺…
Marie, they prefer Eastern Europeans because they are hardier. They work hard and just get on with it. UNLIKE US WHINGEING BRITS.
So if they prefer Eastern Europeans how the bloody hell are we supposed to get work – they’ve made it damn near impossible for us.
BIG DICK McPHEE – I get up very early every morning to go to work every day, including sometimes when required at weekends, Saturday & Sunday. I get paid a basic wage (because my employer does not have enough money to pay me properly) with some Tax Credits for a top-up also
DO YOU DO THIS?
Before you start attacking so many people on here – just take a look at yourself. I do not know any of your financial circumstances, – but, if you are in a job and your employer made you redundant – then you also could find yourself out of a job. Your savings would last you for so long, but they would not last indefinitely.
If this was the case, you would have no alternative then to apply to the DWP for benefits. The system (as I understand it nowadays) is that you could have to wait up to 6 weeks for your first benefit payment.
Even worse – you could have a heart attack or a stroke, or some other physical disability – nowadays (as I understand it) you would have to apply for Employment & Support Allowance – you yourself would have to go through a widely discredited Work Capability Assessment by a French or an American Private Company (both discredited) using so-called ‘health professionals’ – (not a properly qualified Doctor as such), but a physiotherapist or a chiropodist – a person who may not know nothing about your physical, or indeed mental condition.
Not all people claiming benefits are frauds – only about 5% or less are fraudulent, or do not want to ‘work’.
You have been misled by the Murdoch controlled press and Channel 5’s Benefits Street – which is a load of rubbish and do not represent the vast majority of benefit claimants.
BEFORE YOU SAY ANY MORE – I SUGGEST THAT YOU LOOK AT ALL OF THESE THINGS THAT I HAVE SAID AND THEN YOU CAN HAVE YOUR SAY.
Research it all PROPERLY first – and then and only then, are you in a true position to be able to comment on here.
🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟
Well said Paul.
Marie – thank you for that 🙂
Paul the right wingers on here probably have buy to lets which they can make money from, they don’t need to work, they have shares in companies , bonds etc, they know how to make money from money!
I don’t understand why you are going to work for minimum wage yourself, the likes of Dick would not do that despite all of his blustering about work ethic etc, these people bought property, shares in utilities etc when the going was good, may well be running a small business to put their vat through and are getting the likes of you for minimum wage or someone on workfare.
You are wasting your breath with scum like him, he probably married money also.
fly hawkes – Yes, you are very right in all that you say.
I sometimes wonder too how I do all of this ‘minimum wage’ stuff – but I would rather be ‘in work’ (even though it may sometimes be shite!) rather then be out of it. I have a young family to support also, which makes it even more important. It really gets to me when I see the likes of ‘Big Dick Mc Phee’ slagging everyone off and calling them ‘workshy whingeing fuckers’.
Who does he really think that he is – he is, as you say most probably a priveleged person (similar to Cameron et al) who has not had to do a decent day of ‘physical’ work in his life – is indeed probably a ‘buy-to-let-landlord’ etc.
He really needs to take a deep look at his life – and why he is like he is.
What he really needs to understand is that anyone can become ‘out of work’ at any time for a multitude of reasons and with all of the financial implications that goes with it – and especially now, in this day and age, – in the age of zero hour contracts and no ‘job for life’, as it used to be 🙂
People should lead by example. Like military officers pretend to do. Don’t expect others to work for minimum wage if you wouldn’t do it yourself. Roll YOUR fucking sleeves up and get down to cleaning up bogs, making hotel beds, or standing around bored out of your skull as a security guard. “But I’m a buy-to-let ‘investor’ with shares bought in public utilities at the right time, who runs a front small business to claim back the VAT on my flat-screen TV, and who happened to marry into money” just doesn’t fucking cut it! If it is sauce for the goose it is sauce for the gander.
BIG DICK you are (conveniently) forgetting that East Europeans over here live 10 to a room, eat the Queen’s swans… claim child benefit for (imaginary) children back home, incidentally paid at the UK rate not taking into account the lower cost of living in Eastern Europe Because of the exchange rate and the lower cost of living East Europeans are working for the equivalent of 100 times the minimum (‘living’) wage. The come here for a couple of years save up almost every penny, return home buy property, a business and retire on the proceeds; they never have to work another day in their lives. Even the ones who come here to claim benefits save up almost every penny just that they may have to spend a year or two more to save the equivalent. So of course East Europeans have an incentive to come here, unlike the indigenous population who aren’t afforded the same opportunities.
No they don’t Nob. I know Eastern Europeans. None of them are living ten to a room. They work hard and do the jobs that scum like you won’t do. Get your facts right You idle layabout dole dossing piece of scum.
LITTLE PRICK?
And you, you are like the Dole Dossing Witchfinder General. You probably even look like Vincent Price in a goatee You Cunt. All you do, day after day is slag off the gainfully employed and the achievers. I hope that your benefits are rescinded for all eternity You Cunt.
What’s so great about being an economic wage slave then and when do you actually work you’re on here all times of the day, every day. Or is this the job. A paid government shill. Or a newspaper prostitute.
Big Dick is nothing but a Big Fanny, Cameron will not win the next election.
Agent Smith will win the next election, Cameron caused a glitch in the matrix.
Red pill or the blue pill?

You’re not influencing anybody. This blogsite has a small number of contributors, about eight in total, some of whom use aliases, thus creating the illusion of maybe twenty contributors.
You are not influencing anybody.
You never will.
You are people of no consequence.
The sooner a scythe is taken to your tax payer funded handouts and you end up destitute and homeless the better.
Now be good “little people”, and grass me up to The Master, thus getting me banned. Mwahahaha. Mwahahahahahw … I’ll be back. Heh heh heh heh…
You use the most aliases Roger the todger, little dick mc Phee.
You come here to say this sheite, and then challenge anybody to confront you. Tell me, who is the troll here then? It is most certainly you. And most here would just skip your stupid paragraphs that men nothing, hold no value. And I expect that many will just leave you alone, you are not worth the steam off my piss, you small minded ape. and don’t expect me to return any comments to you.
But you most certainly felt that you had to leave a stupid comment, and then say you are not influencing anybody. But if you are not being influenced or effected, why did you comment? (rhetorical, don’t wase my time or yours)
Now Feck Off!
I’m not a troll, mate, I just happen to believe in free speech and democracy. Something that you scum obviously don’t believe in. You scum just want free handouts – for life. well life just aint like that. And the sooner you scum realise that truth, the better for you. Just go out and get a job. We’re a service industry now. That being so almost every job is in a shop, or get an SIA licence and do security. But don’t just sit there bleating and doing fuck all, otherwise I’ll keep having to address you as “You Scum”, and commenting on this “blog”.
Don’t project onto us what you are scum.
How dare you call these people scum. You’re the only bottom feeder on here that I can see. These are good people. It’s the system that stinks to high heaven not the people.

“AUTISM, THE TORY MERRY GO ROUND OF DISABILITY DENIAL”
From: P. Smith
3 December 2011
Dear Department for Work and Pensions,
A disturbing trend is emerging whereby those with Asperger syndrome / High Functioning autism attend a WCA and are failed.
They wait for an appeal and then pass.
At a review three months later, they are failed.
I know of several such cases now.
Why?
Please will you supply the supporting policy, procedure details, documents / instructions that allow this to happen – causing phenomenol stress to the individuals concerned – and anything else relevant that would explain this growing practice?
Is is government policy NOT to support vulnerable individuals with autism?
Thank you,
Yours faithfully,
[P. Smith].

In only a small number of weeks recently, i’ve talked to more than one or two people locally who read/follow this blig. They don’t necessarily each/always comment but can get their information – including from the comments & the sidebar (of shameful goings-on). This is in just one area of the frozen north/northern poorhouse, obviously, but – Extrapolate That …
Shirley, You’re talking shit. So you’re saying that because three people in Leeds occasionally go on this blog, that this means it has more than eight regular contributors? Shirley, you’re not all there are you? I rest my case. Res Ipsa Loquitur.
Eight people writing thousands upon thousand of comments – extrapolate that You Cunt!
355 comments on this thread already – that’s over 44 for each of your eight contributors lol You realise how stupid you sound BIG DICK? Are you the same person who said that JV wrote ALL the comments on here lol
It’s because those eight people are sad cunts who have nothing better to do with their time than write incessant emails to this shit blog. Geoff Reynolds is a case in point. That cunt writes about 100 emails per day, day in day out.
Get a job you bone idle scum!
If this is a reflection of a real-life persona, it must be nigh-on impossible to have relationships – work or otherwise. That’s why most people are here – because they’re engaged not “sad” (read “angry/sad).
Of course, rest your case in Latin if it makes you feel happy/superior.

Now that the South has robbed the country of it’s assets, reduced funding to the North, it now wants to devolve nothing but debts to the North East, knowing that Westminster is a dismal failure at providing employment for anyone other than themselves.
Well they can cough up what the North East made for the Southerners when they were the power house of the country.
You’re a dick Dick you make me sick you better leave now and make it quick. Coming round here and acting like a prick you think you are clever but you are thick. You will be banned tick tock tick when JV comes online and gives you the kick.
And Boy, don’t leave the day job of working in a Scope Shop for your JSA. Trust Old Big Dick McPhee, that would be a really silly move on yout part. Outside of a Scope shop and a Remploy factory, the prospect of you doing anything construed as “work” is an impossibility.

Notice above he mentions ‘Free speech and Democracy’, the cunt does not even know what that means, as we all know some are more free to speak than others, I don’t see us getting free speech on any msm networks, and if too much is said they cut to a break. You assessment of him is correct. I won’t even begin about democracy, that is even more of a joke, the deluded cunt.

Equality watchdog to mirror UN inquiry into DWP’s rights violations
6
By John Pring on April 7, 2016 Human Rights
The equality watchdog is to commission a major piece of research into whether the government’s welfare reforms have harmed the human rights of disabled people and other minority groups.
The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) says it wants to examine the impact of changes to the welfare system on independent living and poverty.
Its decision appears to mirror the decision of the UN’s committee on the rights of persons with disabilities to carry out an unprecedented inquiry into “systematic and grave violations” of disabled people’s human rights by the UK government, which is examining the impact of a series of welfare reforms and social care cuts carried out since 2010.
The EHRC announcement was included in the watchdog’s new business plan for 2016-17, which was published on Monday (4 April) without any publicity.
The business plan says: “Everyone has a right to an adequate standard of living, including a minimum entitlement to food, clothing and housing.”
It adds: “It is not clear whether the government’s reforms to tax, welfare and public spending have taken into account the cumulative impact of these changes on the standard of living of disabled people and other groups who may have been disproportionately affected.”

Rich Indians are used to seeing poverty and death all around them, that is why they live in the UK so that they can turn a blind eye. Pritti awful really.
i’ve just heard some cunt on skynews say that mental health in young people is caused by social media. She also said mental health conditions just merge into one another, Bloody criminal
“social media” IS bad for mental health. The most depressed people are to be found on Fakebook, add to that Twitter, ‘internet dating’ and all the other time-wasting pieces of crap. Fakebook and Twitter can even be found on so-called “smart TVs”. The best thing to improve mental health is to turn “social media” OFF.
so it’s not due to deliberate propaganda/ lies/ oppression and government cuts to ensure a community with no mental health resources to help those in need earlier then??? that’s okay then – irrespective of the inanity of some social media ……
It’s nothing to do with the fact that the pseudo psychiatrists are pedalling their shit to the media, with libelous labels used as medical conditions.
It’s nothing to do with DWP sanctions if refusing to jump through hoops that may be causing unhappiness (not mental illness).
It’s nothing to do with all of those that voted for austerity imposing their barbaric will on the poorest in society.
IT’S ALL DOWN TO SOCIAL MEDIA – RIGHT!!!
This is social media too!

Fitness for work assessors ‘mock the disabled’ while earning up to £20,000 a month.
A fitness for work assessor for Government contractor Capita boasted he “flew through” vital welfare disability tests – earning himself £20,000 a month.
And another derided a disabled claimant as needing “help to wipe her a*** because she’s too f****** fat to do it herself”.
The footage was filmed for Channel 4’s Dispatches programme by a reporter who went undercover to expose the hated tests, which have seen thousands of disabled people wrongly stripped of benefits.
In the documentary, to be broadcast at 8pm on Monday, one Capita employee named Alan crows about raking in vast sums.

“Let’s focus, however, on low income. Large numbers of people suffer low incomes for extended periods – previous research suggests that in Britain, well over half of us will have had at least a year on low income in a ten-year period. The reasons for low income include unemployment, but they also include low pay, having young children, divorce, disability, becoming a student, suffering discrimination or falling ill.”
So for those who criticise, as the Lotto says : “It Could be you.”
Going by the figures available, it probably will be.
