I've been following Diary of a Benefit Scrounger for a while now. It's a campaigning site focusing on the proposed cuts to welfare benefits in the UK. There's a few posts I think people should read.
The Very Definitions of Irony -the writer of the blog has severe Chron's disease, osteroporisis and malnutrition. She takes chemo shots every 2 weeks, has had major seizures and a stroke. Her application for Disability Living Allowance has been turned down.
3 Claimants die after being found for fit for work
An open letter to Iain Duncan Smith
Did you know this about your ESA50 form - Given how strict we are about data protection, why do royal mail sorting officers open the ESA50 applications, and sort them in the post office? What's it to do with them?
Who is the most deserving? - Since 2008 75% of applicants got gurned down for Employment Support Allowance. Apparently they weren't sick or disabled enough.
We all know someone who could work but doesn't - don't we? - Hidden, secret disabilities and illnesses.
