PIP Nightmare

Hi All, just been listening to the Westminster Hour with Cheryl Gillan, the ex Conservative Minister among the guests.

My point is when the Autism Bill was fighting its way through Parliament there was seldom a news bulletin were Cheryl Gillan was not in the forefront of the pressure on the Government to treat people on the Autism Spectrum with some understanding.

Since the onset of the PIP debacle which has caused more worry and profound suicidal feelings to people on the Spectrum not a word in support or protest at the way the Government and associated companies ie ATOS and Capita have run roughshod over peoples feelings and emotions.

Where has she gone? What dialogue has she had with the Directors of our Society over the PIP disaster? If not why not and if not are we all waiting for the day when another ex Minister has stirred the pool in the hope of recognition.

  • It is good to hear that you have been treated well Arkx6 and wish you a speedy recovery and yes it is true that when the 'system' works well it does us all proud.  Some people are however finding it a real struggle to get the benefits they are entitled to due in part to lack of medical evidence, but as you say many are treated fairly.
