“Mental health experts warn against pace of incapacity benefit cut”
“We’ve found that the prospect of incapacity benefit reassessment is causing huge amounts of distress and tragically there have already been cases where people have taken their own life following problems with changes to their benefits”
So is the “Big Society” we’re meant to be working towards? One where the most needy are brutally ignored, repressed and ultimately silence? This makes me feel sick that this can be done in such a way.
