Awww, that’s nice, Ed Miliband wants to know what we thought of his speech!

He’ll be hosting a web-chat 5.00pm today on Twitter! Using the hashtag #AskEdM

Wouldn’t it be good if 1000’s of people asked him why he chose to use a man on Incapacity Benefit to paint a picture of how society is irresponsible, going on to use this man as an example of “not showing responsibility” “shirking his duties” “abusing the system because he could work but didn’t” “ripping off our society” he was not a “good citizen” he was “abusing the trust of his neighbours”……?

Why he supported a scrounger narrative that is already causing a rise in disability hate crime?
What he based his 2 minute Work Capability Assessment on?
Why he won’t admit that ESA is a shambles

Remember, Mr Miliband has been consulting the country. Listening to the concerns of those who “work hard and do the right thing” He want’s to know what Labour got wrong. He’s heard from the Daily Mail loud and clear it seems. Today, we could make sure that he hears from us.

**It’s nearly lunchtime now. For enough people to make an impact, we need to send this to every campaigner, supporter, friend and contact we can think of. OK. it won’t change the world, but it might cause a stir. Pls RT, link and mail out.

e-petition - Stop Unfair Re-assessments For Disabled People

Responsible department: Department for Work and Pensions

Stop the unfair and cruel re-assessments via ATOS for disabled people currently on Incapacity Benefit. ESA is a flawed benefit, and puts terrible pressure and stress on vulnerable people, putting people who cannot work on lesser benefits and applying sanctions. Let disabled people decide for themselves if they can work, they and their carers know best.
