‘Injustice’: 92-year-old with dementia told by DWP to repay £7k in disability allowance
https://www.theguardian.com/society...ld-by-dwp-to-repay-7k-in-disability-allowance
Don't forget the DWP is advising people not to challenge these decisions, otherwise they will force them to pay more.
Everyone hates everyone!
Yep, just tells you how stupid they think people are.

Kwarteng gets about a bit, doesn't he?
But don't forget the real scandal here; Angela Rayner might owe £1500 in unpaid taxes.
It’s almost like relentlessly mirroring the opinions, positions and policies of the party that has been in power for over a decade and people are sick to their stomach of and rejecting in unprecedented fashion is a bad idea? Almost.
Almost
People are rejecting the Tories and holding their nose and voting for Starmer. It’s a protest vote and nothing else. It will be the most hollow of victories and as soon as Labour are in power people will be clamouring to get them out.
The two polls show Starmer is winning by default and is hugely unpopular, that’s not a sustainable position to govern from.
Wait, is it that low? I've only glanced at the various articles about this and none of them said how much she owed. They made it look like it was at least five figures.
What a time to have Starmer as leader.
He’s an absolute cnut. Know a few things about. Not a nice fella.
I think the estimate is somewhere between £0 and £3500.
Is your position on an opposition leader being unpopular not being sustainable consistent?
Feels like a trap tbh your honour
Kind of was tbh.
With some recent polling showing Labour winning in Scotland I wonder if the SNP will start to drop it's ''progressive policy''. I guess the overall thing is capitalist are one of the worst ways to tackle climate change.
Tbh the polling wouldn't be so good Labour had a left wing winger. Starmer has fully dived into showing the British ruling class that Labour are a safe bet and there's now a level of comfortability with attacking the tory party. All of which is very depressing for anyone who cares about anything.
We live in a country where around a quarter are a generation of cnuts who revel in the fact they own houses and had opportunities that the generations after them will almost certainly never get. Threatening them with the idea that the world will be demonstrably shitter for those who'll be around long after they have gone is frankly pointless.
The single proposed policy that has seemingly had any negative impact on a Tory PM is the dementia tax, because those same cnuts couldn't have done anything to prevent them being in a position where that affected them. If the policy was to begin 15-20 years from now, none of them would have cared and it'd have had zero impact on May's tenure or polling numbers.

Their children will be afforded the same privileges/opportunities through inheritance.
When they're in their 50s and 60s they'll be able to put down a deposit on their first house.
Wasn't Ed in a position of power? What a nonsensical conversation. If people are too thick to understand what inflation is.... he's really not helping with bollocks presenting like that.
They've missed an awful lot.
What a Cnut.
So no one’s ever broken 30% - that’s very British of you guys
Apparently they've known for 3 months
Cynically, I'm thinking it must be why they are desperately pushing the Rayner smears
I think all he was doing is forcing her to explain properly to the average viewer who might have taken what she said at face value. He obviously understands that to be deceitful and misleading.
Seems to be a classic case of privatise profits and socialise losses.
They need to start falling back on their family’s generational wealth and stop living off the state.
Sure, but he talked more shite than her! I'm not even sure she was trying to be sneaky - the point was, in real world terms, food will cost less per pound earned. He rightly corrected her, but managed to look like a total dick in the process.
This doesn’t make any sense. They’re so privileged and wrong headed. Feels like they’re just making things as bad as possible so that any regression from insanity from the next government looks weak willed and easy to attack.
"Feeling anxious or depressed". They have no idea on how debilitating it can be, and if it's a systematic policy it's going to send a load of people over the edge.
