I know of numerous people who are now getting DLA high rate of mobility and care, and all the do is use the money to buy drugs, while people who are actually disabled through no fault of their own are being told sorry your not that serious.
I mean we have so many people being rejected for DLA because doctors think they are able to work, why is it illegal drugs users are not forced back into work |
I couldn't agree more!
A few years ago, when my partner first started claiming IB, it took 8 weeks before his money came through. He had absolutely nothing, the mortgage coming were on his back because he couldn't pay his mortgage, he had no money for food and his cries for help to the DWP were falling on deaf ears.
All they could offer him was £30 yet a drug addict had been given an emergency giro for £100, which he immediately gave his dealer! Ridiculous isn't it?
