Not that surprised really - we met him for the first time after the Hardest Hit march, in Westminster Hall. Suffice to say we were amazingly underwhelmed. He kept on about how DLA claims had increased by 30% since whenever, and how GP's just waved people through on the nod, just to get rid of them. Maybe that's why we haven't had a reply, because facts in the Report get in the way of stories like that. Still, I'll bet he comes up with some kind of defensive answer..Irishmistnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-77189718916013561412012-01-15T20:53:25.994+00:002012-01-15T20:53:25.994+00:00My MP, once the minister for disabled people in th...My MP, once the minister for disabled people in the last shadow cabinet, says that disabled people will be okay with this present government.<br /><br />Okay for what? the firing squad, the gas chambers .....?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-39971730333711352142012-01-15T20:50:18.931+00:002012-01-15T20:50:18.931+00:00I believ that David Cameron doesn't see anyone...I believ that David Cameron doesn't see anyone he doesn't want toAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-16160936193464061342012-01-15T20:00:07.413+00:002012-01-15T20:00:07.413+00:00Party Political Manifesto's = BullshitParty Political Manifesto's = BullshitAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-76252415967327625412012-01-15T18:54:35.955+00:002012-01-15T18:54:35.955+00:00Just thought I'd add this too -

We champion the freedom, dignity and well-being of individuals, we acknowledge and respect their right to freedom of conscience and their right to develop their talents to the full. We aim to disperse power, to foster diversity and to nurture creativity. We believe that the role of the state is to enable all citizens to attain these ideals, to contribute fully to their communities and to take part in the decisions which affect their lives...we reject all prejudice and discrimination based upon race, colour, religion, age, disability, sex or sexual orientation and oppose all forms of entrenched privilege and inequality. Recognising that the quest for freedom and justice can never end, we promote human rights and open government, a sustainable economy which serves genuine need, public services of the highest quality...We are determined to strengthen the democratic process and ensure that there is a just and representative system of government with effective Parliamentary institutions, freedom of information...We support the widest possible distribution of wealth and promote the rights of all citizens to social provision and cultural activity. We seek to make public services responsive to the people they serve, to encourage variety and innovation within them and to make them available on equal terms to all...These are the conditions of liberty and social justice which it is the responsibility of each citizen and the duty of the state to protect and enlarge. The Liberal Democrats consist of women and men working together for the achievement of these aims.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-33839319899352746522012-01-15T18:42:09.698+00:002012-01-15T18:42:09.698+00:00Ok sorry my mistake, it IS from the coalition book...Ok sorry my mistake, it IS from the coalition booklet.<br /><br />Sorry SueyDouble Karmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16530193519704960225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-19608567198250004212012-01-15T18:34:59.509+00:002012-01-15T18:34:59.509+00:00Hey wait a sec, this it just from the Conservative...Hey wait a sec, this it just from the Conservative Manifesto.
