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.

650 members at a cost of an average basic salary of £66k before increments allowances and expenses and they begrudge us the pittance we get!!
under our current constitution Chope is correct – we are subjects of the queen and servants of the government, here only to make them all rich
The System is One of Servitude and Slavery we Need One of Service and Social
Justice
It is time to seriously look at this ridiculous pantomime, the number of genuine Mps can is very low, pretty much like those who turned out for the constituents at Michael Meachers WCA debate yesterday. Where were the rest of the out of touch and uncaring individuals, that chamber should have been PACKED.

No record of the 43% of us found fit for work who aren’t working or receiving benefits the following year which will mean nothing to the gangster squad but be of terrible concern to anyone with a beating heart

The blame for these deaths lies squarely with the terrorists who launched this vicious and cowardly attack.
