From the facebook page ‘The People vs the Government, DWP and ATOS’, 2nd August 2013:
Im writing this on behalf of my dad, hes disabled and has been 20 years. he was on disability for life. He had his atos assesment a while ago and determined he was fit for work {although he is NOT anyone seeing how he is can tell he’s not}
They took his ESA away from him and then told him he cant claim for JSA!?! Fighting that at the moment and have appealed to know avail, now going to tribunal to fight it in sept.
My Dad has had a motability car for many years due to his disability, he had another atos assesment at home for that one. They lowered his care from high rate to middle rate, took my mothers carers allowance off her as she was his carer…and guess what…hes now been told they’ve taken mobility off him completely and now going to take his car away..he can barely walk properly atm.
They are now leaving him virtually a prisoner in his own home. And guess how he found this out…his 3 year lease on his current car is over next month and just put in for his next one, they’ve blocked it…it took someone from the garage to let him know. Hes foned up dwp and they refuse to talk about it until he gets a letter.
Whats even worse about all this my dad suffers from depression and has done for many years. this could be what tips him over the edge. Ive personally had enough of all this, this country now stands for the death of the masses that cant help themselves.
