There many other articles out there about PIP and the complete chaos in a system that quite clearly is not fit for purpose.
Have a read of this and perhaps you might see past your blinkered views and you might actually actually learn something.

Less of the moronic name calling OB as first of all l am no lefty as l am a moderate who wants fairness for everybody in society and not just for one favoured group of the country.

Strange that the current government seem to find that magical money tree for its own political ends several times over the past few years.
