I've written to the queen

Stuffed

Wrote to liz and told her it was going to hell in a hand cart-normal people can't stand brutal truth-I posted on another forum with my friend and it seems the unpalitable truth is not allowed to be said.

  • Yes, it stinks, it really does. And I am very angry, too. They should take account of our needs - I thought that that was what the Autism Act and Strategy were there for?. Many people can't cope with the work related activity groups under the new ESA. I still have to find out what part of ESA I will be under - I really hope I am not put in work-related activity group. I am a motivated, driven person, who does loads of voluntary work and wants to work, but my Asperger's means I can't cope with mainstream Job-Centre arrangements.  Moreover, compulsory attendance at risk of losing benefits is punitive, patronizing, and a load of ****.
