Independent Living Fund to close

So the Tories think its 'unsustainable' to help the disabled to live independantly? They appear to be hell bent on removing all the assistance that the disabled require to live out their lives.
Local authorities and not going to step in, that is rubbish, there is no funding there, if there was it would almost certainly go in the wrong direction.
So what is the alternative? Maybe our nice government are considering lethal injections or internment camps. Then they could save enough money to keep the top rate tax lower and let the bankers have a nice quiet life.

How about this current government tackle the unbelievable waste that the MOD constantly sustain . .runs into billions per year . .but oh no, some minister may or may not have called a policeman a pleb . .sorry but thats the current UK again, on it's arse and worried about who's ****-stirring . .

This is yet another damning indictment of a government that 'neither sees nor feels nor knows' - what does it say about the values of our society when those already at the bottom of the pile are attacked financially like this? This really is a disgrace - I accept all arguments that say systems need to deter those who are fraudulent. This legislation goes way beyond this.

i thought that this was the new fund they had brought in to replace DLA ? which is in the process of changing over

Discrimination against disabled people is unlawful according to the european convention of human rights,it is also wrote into UK law.Sooner than later this government will have to explain these methods of modern day ethnic cleansing.One thing is for certain if these two party`s get voted in again they will be no room in london for the unemployed,working class and middle class rated below a doctor,only millionaires and the very wealth need apply,the rest will be forced out north,this government is already trying to price people out of house and home.One person with blonde hair playing mister nice guy and a tory-lib dem gov playing mister bad persons.

It is clear that austerity isn't working, and it is clear that making it easier to sack people and harder for disabled people to live independently, is no kind of cure for our sick economy.

Instead of these policies of despair and division we need investment in our economy and our public services to create jobs and opportunities to help our communities, and to support people who need it.

I strongly suspect these issues won't have been discussed during the Queen's visit.

Ms McVey told MPs: "We have considered all views carefully and, while I do understand user concerns, I do not think the current situation is sustainable."

so she listened carefully then said BOLLOCKS to them?

Sounds just like a real Tory!!!

you might as well piss in the wind if you think this govt would give anyone anything?
or even listen to anyones views on anything?

Just wondering how low this crowd can sink......before long they will have run out of underpriviliged groups to attack.meanwhile the arrogant pigs who caused the problem carry on as if nothings happened.
