Well my speciality is in interpreting not only policy but the meaning of which direction in which Ed would take us <br /><br />The meaning of his praise the race to the top is not applicable in the UK as the population is to large and to unskilled to start with so where Ed was going with this analogy will have to remain a mystery with Ed <br /><br />It was a good speech however that would have gone down well and been well excepted throughout the Caribbean or indeed any small country with a small population needing a positive push or indeed a country like Switzerland with a majority skilled workforce<br /><br />David Cameron's vision on the other hand the race to the bottom is clear and is working well for him 3 years in. And that's to get rid of vast amounts of waste and those who are wasteful to cut right back on benefits the NHS to make life as difficult as hell for all those in need so that the die much quicker than under previous conservative governments<br /><br />David Cameron’s main aim is to shrink the state to such a level that millions will disappear either in their premature death like the sick and disabled and the jobless to just move abroad of those that are left the average worker well they will end up working in conditions like in Bangladesh the return of slavery <br /><br />David Cameron is doing very well with his plans so far with the vast majority of their support not interested in most other government policy's they will just be happy to continue the course he is on as it good for businesses <br /><br />As for Ed a good speech but as I said above not that really applicable for a small country so heavily over populated like the UK and in fairness to Ed he probably means well but as for pulling anything off of benefit to the average person in the UK it's most unlikely to happen<br /><br />Getting rid of ATOS is a plus point but overall the sick and disabled under Ed will be only marginally better off than of now and for me having digested Ed speech none of what he said is really applicable to the UK<br /><br />As i have stated above and in my interpretation with regret Ed will fail as for his policy's overall to work he would need genuine decent respectable businesses in operation throughout the UK of which there are only a few and a skilled and motivated workforce along with a public that could rise to the occasion and to think outwards instead of inwards (thinking of others and not themselves) These are the three key ingredients that this country would need for Ed to make any headway with his premiership if he were elected<br /><br />Regretfully the UK falls down on all of these three key ingredients so there is no way that the UK would be better off overall under labour<br /><br />the sick and disabled no doubt would find some respite and for this group of people then yes labour would be much preferable to David Cameron but as for Ed's Briton can do better that has never been possible over the past 70 years and I cant for the life of me see that changing in 2015 <br /><br />The UK's history is one of slavery with the majority of businesses out to do as little as possible for it's workforce that just in itself is bad enough but then when you add in a majority of the people with a selfish disposition as a country your going to end up just going round and round in circles like the past seventy years which is high living costs/fuel/housing/food etc so as for Ed's race to the top' as i say he means well and it sounds wonderful but in reality it's just words and as a good friend has always said talks cheep <br />And on that basis I'm out

shouldn't as various benefits fall outside ...It shouldn't as various benefits fall outside of what UC is suppose to deal with and even internal benefits to UC still have their own qualifications. <br /><br />What the "Tell Us Once" centre can do is create an individualised key for people with disabilities to use to unlock certain benefits and support if they qualify for them. Each key would open some locks but not others as appropriate. Also as long as this TUO process isn't attached to receiving monies/support (basically has no interest in gatekeeping) then it can operate as an impartial umpire. Its a different relationship to someone dealing with DWP/ATOS currently. <br /><br />There will still be additional information required for different benefits/support but that should be supplementary. It should reduce the burden/costs of administration, particularly for GPs. <br /><br />There will still be issues around accessing benefits/support and the descriptors for that. That's still a contentious space. But TUO should reduce the burden on disabled people in terms of discussing their limitations. <br /><br />.

NONE of it is policy, and even if it was, it wouldnt happen. Labour bought atos in, to say they will get rid of them IF they get voted in is hypocracy. Its not that we need, its not vote catching gimmicks or spin its a new way of looking at governing this country from the ground up and cutting MP wages would be a good start. to get rid of the career politicians and only have MPS who truly believe what they say. Its a start, but it means nothing. How about an apology to all those who have died due to ATOS slash and burn rules on behlaf or this and the previous government... and then compensation for the rest of us. willo'th'wisphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07683514080902761427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-59070073967726923872013-09-23T15:05:12.492+01:002013-09-23T15:05:12.492+01:00"How ATOS is taking over the NHS by stealth -..."How ATOS is taking over the NHS by stealth - under a different name"<br /><br />http://tompride.co.uk/how-atos-is-taking-over-the-nhs-by-stealth-under-a-different-name<br />anonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00881612754251497340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-81570071332861717382013-09-23T15:02:24.601+01:002013-09-23T15:02:24.601+01:00"Only days after Ed Miliband announced a Labo..."Only days after Ed Miliband announced a Labour government would sack Atos, the party’s conference is hosting an event part-funded by the architects of the ‘work capability assessment’ administered by that company – the criminal American insurance giant Unum."<br /><br />Read more...<br />http://mikesivier.wordpress.com/2013/09/22/heres-why-labour-needs-to-go-a-lot-further-to-win-back-our-trust/<br />anonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00881612754251497340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-90098487053800875232013-09-23T13:38:24.994+01:002013-09-23T13:38:24.994+01:00Beaten to the punch :D

I will always have in my mind that new labour allowed ATOS to 'get their foot in the door' in the first place, they should feel ashamed that they ever gave the contract to this organisation. I am uncertain about the integrity of some of labour's potential ministers. It scares me to imagine that the tories might get any opportunity after the next election to further attack all of the vulnerable sick, disabled and unemployed generally. I can't imagine what they could do! Let's hope a labour government would remember what it stands for and its roots and successes.

I apologise if they have, but from what I've seen today it's more weasel words. Byrne talking about helping disabled people "reach their potential". So more of forcing them into work no matter what by the sounds of it. Most disabled people want an income, secure in the knowledge they won't be harassed by the government, and then to be left alone to cope with their ailments in the best way they see fit.<br /><br />Those disabled people then shock, horror, spend their income in businesses, which stimulates the economy, due to the increase in demand more jobs become available for the millions of able bodied people who are currently looking for work, those people start to be hired and the tax take increases and simultaneously benefits reduce, and that will lead to the deficit coming down, this is basic economic sense. <br /><br />There is no excuse for the continuing nonsense other than corporate welfare, this is cronyism of the worst kind, it's no good making a song and dance about sacking one company, then hiring another set of parasites to come in looking for their handout. Labour has to stop pandering to corporate interests, this whole process is just going to continue if they don't. It's like Bakunin said 'When the people are being beaten with a stick, they are not much happier if it is called "the People's Stick."Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07388885044895299757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4568034298343558962.post-87566108298207506532013-09-22T15:05:41.298+01:002013-09-22T15:05:41.298+01:00Wow!
