Not at all. But some on here, and the quoted bit by Gary is a prime example, are using extreme examples to demonise the need to means test for these benefits

You highlight well the misinterpretation many have because not a single genuine claimant has a problem with a properly conducted assessment by a trained medical professional. Were not getting that with atos they have their own training scheme that takes medical secretary's as well as many others not qualified and gives them the power to make a decision beyond their ability that has a lasting and damaging affect on people.

We would also like the DWP to stop lying about imposing targets when they do and atos has been caught on camera more then once insisting they have targets they must meet.
I am in a complete agreement, the testing, assessing, has to be undertaken by competent qualified people.

if this isn't the case, trust me, I'd march alongside you.
