Thousands of Disabled people have had benefits such as Disability Living Allowance payments stopped by ATOS.
Further, thousands of disabled people have had other benefits removed.
The majority of these decisions are unjustifiable and totally arbitrary in order to slash the welfare budget, leaving claimants living in fear, misery, and in some cases; becoming homeless.
The argument that claimants can then appeal is completely cynical and diverts the publics view from the appalling hardships being caused, whilst negating the distress caused to those having to go to appeal, many of whom dont have the emotional or physical means to do so. Support for disabled people is also being destroyed as charity organisations continue to lose national and local government support.
Please Jim, can you accept this petition from those undersigned and grant their wish to reinstate their disability benefits, whilst at the same time ensuring that ATOS get what they truly deserve too!
